[](http://www.cocoaradio.com/2005/12/cocoaradio%5Finte.html?ref=chrismessina.me)I've got [another interview](http://www.cocoaradio.com/2005/12/cocoaradio%5Finte.html?ref=chrismessina.me) out in the wild, this time at Blake Burris' [CocoaRadio](http://www.cocoaradio.com/?ref=chrismessina.me). The [interview](http://factoryjoe.com/blog/2005/11/03/upcoming-flock-cocoa-radio-podcast/?ref=chrismessina.me) was conducted at my favorite San Francisco cafe, [Ritual Roasters](http://ritualroasters.com/?ref=chrismessina.me), so there's a bit of a din in the background. It also took place over a month ago, which makes some of the information obsolete (I wrote about [cloning APIs here](http://factoryjoe.com/blog/2005/11/03/iamcaltraincom-launches-on-new-yahoo-maps-api/?ref=chrismessina.me)). On the other hand, I do talk fairly expansively about the vision for Flock... how [microformats](http://microformats.org/?ref=chrismessina.me) will help, what it's like developing a cross-platform Mozilla app and where we're in general going with Flock. I think it's probably the best real-world articulation of what Flock's all about so far, so if Flock still doesn't make much coherent sense to you, definitely take a listen and let me know what you think.

Great interview! Very informative. Since I fell upon Flock a couple months ago, I have learned much from Chris's postings in the Flock Feeds. He has a gift for plain speak in a complicated area. However if anyone desires an explanation of what Web 2.0 is, should check out -- [O'Reilly: What Is Web 2.0.](http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/oreilly/tim/news/2005/09/30/what-is-web-20.html?ref=chrismessina.me)Flock has really opened my eyes as to what the web can be by combining the web services I use often. Flock has turned out to be an important tool that I use on a daily basis. Great articles... thanks. I will be requiring my web students to visit FactoryCity to stay current with the industry. Thanks for the great work. Bill

I totally agree with Bill, great interview, definetly gone on my iPod. I would also like to thank you for your work with Flock. I am constantly coming back here, too the IRC chat room and too the flock website to check out all the latest developments, and am also downloading some of the hourly builds =D Keep the good work up mate, Richard
