I recently came across a very cool feature over at ninemsn.com called the Flock. The minute I saw it I thought “I want one of those for this site.”, but alas it is not to be. Not yet anyway. It seems to be proprietary software but hopefully some smart people will com up with a similar plug-in for WordPress (the software that this blog runs on). Will they be able to match the humor side of it though? What is the humor side of it? Just replace the word Flock with a similar sounding four letter word and you will see. Puerile, I know.
Anyway, over at ninemsn at the bottom of articles you are given the option to Flock it! It is a type of recommendation, like Digg but this seems to be for internal use only. I have included an image below where you can see some of the uses of the word Flock. You can’t tell me that it is unintentional.
- The Flock. What is this? [What the Flock is this?]
- You are now a Mother Flocker
- Would you like to become a Mother Flocker?
- Make me a Mother Flocker.
- This article has been Flocked 10 times.
While I wouldn’t say it was Flocking funny, it is quite amusing and I image that whoever suggested these phrases was just Flocking around and probably never meant for them to be used. I also imagine that when some boss figures out the double entendres they may be flocked.
No t-shirt’s this time. Sorry.
Greetings.
I got a huge giggle from this blog. I am, or Was as the case may be.. A Huge Mother flocker, but the flockers for some reason decided to unflock me.. so now i’m just a lonely little flocker with no one who gives a flock to show me the way to becomming a flocker again. I’ve looked for the sign up page over and over but it seems ive been deflocked on more than one level..so in short.. this flocker loved your flocking comments on the flock page but if you have a link to signing up to becoming a mother flocker AGAIN after you’ve been deflocked..could you possible email it to me? If you could it would be flocking brilliant.
Thankyou in advance your flocking mate ..

I used to be a flocker but they don’t show my flocks anymore anyone know why that happens?
LOL. I believe that you just have to flock about 10 times or maybe even less to be a motherflocker again. I don’t know of another way to get to the sign up page.
Well you’re a flocking package of information today aren’t you? I can’t flocking thankyou enough for your flocking help. I am once again a Mother Flocker and feel flocking loved.
Have a great flocking day.
Mistress D
I have been flocking for as long as anyone can be a flocker but they have never invited me to become a mother flocker. They just keep telling me that I am one flock closer to becoming a mother flocker. I want to be a mother flocker. I’ve flocked thousands of times ~ is this some kind of cosmic joke that I’m not flocking getting???
Will someone take the computer off “frog” or at least access to Flocking. Her (obviously) comments on the Flock are ill considered, and displayes her basic ignorance in the substance of the articles she is Flocking.
