Flocktails
Flocktails has been consolidated into the Tails Extension as of version 0.3. You can download the latest version of Tails here.
Not to leave Flock out in the cold, I’ve ported my Tails Extension to Flock, which I’m calling Flocktails. Flocktails supports the same microformats (hCard, hCalendar, hReview, xFolk) as the original Tails Extension, but displays them one at a time and from Flock’s topbar (click on the image below to see the the full image):
You install this extension by clicking here:
- Flocktails v0.1.2 (6/17/2006, for Flock 0.7)
- Flocktails v0.1.1 (3/22/2006, for Flock 0.5.13+).

Doh. Don’t work in Flock beta (0.7). What gives?
I haven’t had a chance to look at the latest release. I’ll make it a point to check it out and see what’s wrong.
Thanks Calvin. I got the same error msg and I really wanted to have this working on Flock.
By the way, is there a way of contributing for the extension? Maybe add support for other microformats…? If I were able to help, I would, just not sure if I have the knowledge.
André – I really don\’t have the time to setup and maintain an official project for Flocktails, but if you want to contribute some code I would be more than happy to incorporate it into the extension. Developing a Flock extension is very much like developing any other Firefox extension. You can check this Flock site to get started (http://www.flock.com/participate). I would recommend checking out the developer wiki.
Extension development is fairly easy, an .xpi is just a zip file with a bunch of XML and Javascript files. The tricky part is trying to figure out what the hell I\’m doing in the code.
I love the plugin. Would it be possible to move the icon from the status bar to the address bar? If so, how?
Calvin,
Ok, I’ll look into it. I’m currently in the middle of exams so free time is scarce. I’ll get in touch if I get the hang of it and write some code for you.
Thanks for all your work!
