Ross and Dan made this video to illustrate the advanced technology we use behind the scenes at FriendFeed. (Ross and Dan, you are amazing - I can't believe how awesome this thing turned out) - Bret Taylor from Bookmarklet
How very creative. This is very fluid and cool. - Louis Gray
OK, not exactly what I was expecting, but very cool. - Kevin Arth
Anyone have the video somewhere other than Youtube? it's banned here in Turkey and I can't wait until we get home (next month) to watch it!! - Chris Myles
Bret, this video should be titled: A Love Song for FriendFeed ! Great vid (and music) ! - Ahsan Ali
This is awesome! - Christopher Chung
with a community like this - you just can't roll-it into f.b.. keep the dream alive! - michael sean wright
:O - Josh Haley
Amazing, thanks for that! - dkb
According to Ross, they used about 1030 individual pictures in the final version. Stop motion is a lot of work :) - Bret Taylor
Sure, sure--give away all the secrets. (Are those Lego dudes union?) - Kathy Fitch
very creative. wonder how long it took to do that stop-action? - berchman
Ross's best work so far ! great job Ross - goutham
Major props to Ross and Dan. FriendFeed lives on - Shane
That's priceless. Great job, guys. - John Craft
This is superb. I just showed it to my 5 year old son who enjoys Lego and has already taken some great photos, including one or two of his toys. So now he has the seed of the idea that, in time, he could take multiple stills and put them together to make moving pictures. Thank you very much for posting it and giving me and him that opportunity. Maybe, he might use FriendFeed one day too! - John W Lewis
Great project! - Anne Bouey
AWESOME! - Kevin Fox
I think they need to make a full stop-motion version of the Matrix in legos. Now THAT would be awesome. I wonder what bullet-time looks like in LEGO? - Bret Taylor
i'd pay to see the stop animation lego matrix, but not the sequels - patrick
"Equipment Generously Provided By Casey Muller" - hahaha!! THIS IS AWESOMESAUCE!!! I love the creative energy and vibe in this video... LOTS of work went into that one! Thanks guys!! :) - Susan Beebe

FriendFeed API v2 officially launching - http://blog.friendfeed.com/2009...
"Two weeks ago, we launched version 2 of the FriendFeed API in beta. Since then, we've watched how developers have been using the API and collected a lot of their feedback. We've implemented some changes, and now, we're ready to remove the beta label!" - Bret Taylor from Bookmarklet
A two weeks beta in the 2.0 era sounds almost blasphem! Congrats! - Simone Ruffilli
Congrats to Ben and Gary for all their hard work getting this out the door. And thanks to all the developers who have been sending us great feedback the past couple weeks. - Bret Taylor
now.we.play /-) - Nicolas Voisin
Bret - Think we'd all be interested in a longer list as more apps make use of the API. Great stuff - Charlie Anzman
Bret Taylor
FriendFeed API v2: Real-time, OAuth, file attachments, and more - http://blog.friendfeed.com/2009...
FriendFeed API v2: Real-time, OAuth, file attachments, and more
"Today we are launching version 2 of the FriendFeed API for beta testing. We focused on making the API simpler to use, and we added number of compelling new features." Documentation: http://friendfeed.com/api... - Bret Taylor from Bookmarklet
OAuth? Sweet. Thanks a lot for all the new good stuff in the API: can't wait to use it. - Mark Trapp
very nice. great work! - Alfredo 亜瑠布れっど
Yet another reason to like Bret. :-) - Jesse Stay
Great!!! - YungSang from FriendFoo
nice! - Daniel Rust
good job guys, I bet devs are jumping high right now - Dobromir Hadzhiev
Sweet, congrats! - Ivan Zuzak
nice, good to see OAuth support, this will enable a larger 3rd party ecosphere around FriendFeed, I hope - Jeroen De Miranda
After going through the documentation and playing around with some feeds, I love the fact that you can now see the subscriber lists of people who have their feeds set to private as long as you are subscribed to them and authenticate (mimicking the main site functionality). One thing that's absent is a discussion of Direct Messages. Do they show up in feeds if you authenticate? How do we find just direct messages? - Mark Trapp
Mark: direct messages are accessed using the feed ID "filter/direct". Read more about feed IDs at http://friendfeed.com/api.... Also direct messages appear in the "home" feed. - Benjamin Golub
Benjamin: ahhh, I see it now. I missed it when skimming that list over. Thanks! - Mark Trapp
Can you post the wget version of the command line? - Gabe
Gabe: wget --user=bgolub --password=passwd --post-file=MyPhoto.jpg http://friendfeed-api.com/v2... should work. In theory. Edit: nope. I'm not sure it's possible to do with wget. - Mark Trapp
Thanks God it is New API. - Ahmet Alp Balkan from iPod
Nice progress here with this release! - Micah
I love it! - friday night
Why is wget questionable? - Gabe
Gabe: wget doesn't support multipart forms as a design decision. If you post a file, FriendFeed returns a 404, and if you post data, the query is too long for wget to handle. - Mark Trapp
cool : ) - Gurkan Oluc
Good work, look forward to seeing what developers can create - Joe Dawson
doublepluslike - Vezquex
curl FTW. - Jeremy Kunz
This is great, FriendFeed team. Good job. - Thierry R. Andriamirado
Woowoo, bgolub's password is “passwd” ;-) - Amit Patel
Amit: I wonder how many people tested that :) - Benjamin Golub
Thanks to bgolub posting his password, I now have all of FriendFeed's secret documents about notorious users, useless metrics, Justin Timberlake's promoting FF on Oprah's show, hiring Colbert as a spokesperson, Ev Williams being just a “distraction”. TechCrunch is going to love this! ;) - Amit Patel
Yes big big thanks to the whole team for all their hard work!! - ɐ ɯıʞ sıɹɥɔ from iPhone
thank you;) waiting for the release :) loving clone - abdellah from FriendFeed API Example
Yay subscribers exposed! - EricaJoy

FriendFeed User Locations - Google Shared Map - http://maps.google.com/maps...
ff_user_locations.jpg
Roll call...this can be great if we all participate. Add yourself to this shared map. I created a placemark on the 2 major intersections near where I live. - Mark Krynsky
or just list location...I'll start...Chatsworth, CA - Mark Krynsky
I would but I won't - Outsanity
near Chicago - Tinfoil 2.0
How do I add myself? - Mo Kargas
Grayson, GA - Rah-PM 2012
Puyallup, WA - Bren
Mo, I'm a newb to the shared maps stuff, but I turned on collaboration and allowed anyone to edit the map. There should be an edit button and then you can add a placemark. - Mark Krynsky
erm...Adelaide, SA, Australia - Mo Kargas
Sydney, Australia. - Andrew Trinh
Yeah, I don't see how to add anything to the map - Rah-PM 2012
But you already have Rahsheen. - Andrew Trinh
Well it's working because I see others are adding themselves...Make sure you are logged into your Google account. - Mark Krynsky
After most have put their placemarks on, don't let anyone edit it because there's always someone out there waiting to fuck shit up. - Andrew Trinh
@Andrew...good point. I just changed it from public to unlisted which only makes the map available to those with the URL. - Mark Krynsky
Even so, last time we had the Confessions account details on FF it was tinkered with. - Andrew Trinh
I added mine, but in the process of learning I think I nudged the Sydney, Australia points off a little. Sorry. - Rob H.
Ok, think I did it! - Bec Rowe @d0tski
Robert bought me a new house in the northern suburbs. - Andrew Trinh
@Bec...nice. You are the first brave female on here. - Mark Krynsky
Cool idea, Mark! I was thinking something like this would be fun the other day. Duly added myself - or at least the nearest big intersection. ;) - Jandy
Mousing over the usernames shows your Google profile info...cool. - Mark Krynsky
I marked a bus stop near my house. But not TOO near. :) - Nine
If you haven't yet...go add FriendFeed to your Google Profile...it will then auto-discover and allow you to add a ton of other profiles you have. - Mark Krynsky
Thanks for the profile tip - I hadn't updated it since I moved here! - Jandy
Added myself. Verona, Italy - Stefano
Added. Sydney, Australia - Jay
Added. Doha, Qatar. - Mohamed J
Thanks guys. This is coming along nicely. It's great to have as a resource to see where everyone is from. Hopefully this can become a standard feature on FF one day. - Mark Krynsky

Done ! Waterloo Belgium - Jacopo Gio
I've read the instruction and still don't see the button thing to add myself. I'm feeling pretty stupid right now. -
@Jill, make sure you are logged into your Google account and then click on the edit button above the list of names already on the map. You will then see the pushpin in the upper left hand side of the map. - Mark Krynsky
Thanks Mark! I see it all now. -
Great idea! - Alan Le
Added. Seems like there are a lot of us in the Bay Area...we must do a get together at some point. - Neal "thePuck" Jansons
@Neal yea, we really need a FriendFeed meetup. I might be up there for Web 2.0 in March...or we can have one at SXSW if a large number of us are going. Let's plan and get the Upcoming page going. - Mark Krynsky
Am I the only FriendFeeder in VA? - Aram Zucker-Scharff
@Mark Not gonna make SXSW, but am definitely down for working on an FF get together. March is long enough away to make sure plenty of people have time to plan ahead. I added you on Upcoming so we can start coordinating it. Anyone else interested/want to help set this up? - Neal "thePuck" Jansons
Maybe we can talk Paul & Bret into letting us invade the FF offices for a meetup in conjunction with Web 2.0? That would be sooooo cool! - Mark Krynsky
Oooh, now that's a really great idea. - Neal "thePuck" Jansons
I'm there :) - Alejandro
Yay Alejandro...first South American..and my old stomping grounds in Argentina no less :) - Mark Krynsky

Find Friendfeeders Across The Web - v0.1 - http://haochen.me/ffweb/
This tool finds all the sites that your Friendfeed friends use and allows you to filter the results by service. - Hao Chen from Bookmarklet
Please test, and let me know if it works. Suggestions gladly welcome. - Hao Chen
Wow. - Rah-PM 2012
Hao, this is awesome! Remember how people were saying in the FF Feedback room, how they'd like services to be linked, but not important the feeds? THIS is the temp. solution. WOW. Are you going to implement a way to filter individually? - Mona Nomura
It doesn't actually do that, Mona. If your account is in Friendfeed, it goes into your feed. Hao Chen is merely making it easier to get the URLs from FriendFeed. - Mark Trapp
Looks great. I guess I'll have to look into Social Graph API a bit deeper. It's so much faster than FF API for network data. - Benedikt Koehler
Oops, I meant UN-LINK services so it'll stop pulling into their feed BUT still enable their friends to link to their respective accounts. Thank you for catching that, Mark. - Mona Nomura
Great job Hao - Zee.
It should be possible to use the Social Graph API to find services that are not imported into Friendfeed as well as friends' services not on FF. It's a bit tricky because it requires a lot of separate requests. Right now, it's only using the SG API to find your subscriptions across the services you import on FF. - Hao Chen
Thanks, just don't look at the source code. LOL - Hao Chen
Hao, this is awesome, this is going to save me so much time! Thanks! - Shey
You're welcome. This is me though: http://www.xkcd.com/196/ - Hao Chen
Very cool. However, my tiny brain is not grokking " Remove Connections Already Subscribed To". Please to explain. - Laura Norvig
Laura, it's not very accurate, but it's supposed to remove links to people's accounts on the other networks you already subscribe to. For example, if I already subscribe to Bob on Twitter, it might remove the link to Bob's Twitter page in the big list. - Hao Chen
very kool Hao....Im finding my fellow FF on other services! - (jeff)isageek
Hao, this is very cool; I just used it to great success friending last.fm users. - Pete D
Hao, since I am the lone step child, any idea why it would not work for me. I typed in my ID, nothing happens, no spinning wheel indicating it is thinking. Just looks at my sad face....LOL. - R. Ferguson
Hoa - This is great. Can you add Blip.fm? - Russellreno
this is so awesome Hao - great job!!!!!!!! look out for random add notifications from me :) - Morgan
Aww..Ruth. What browser + ver + OS are you using? Is JavaScript turned on? Try this link? http://haochen.me/ffweb... - Hao Chen
Export to CSV please. :0) - Adam Helweh
wait visita is my OE, my browser is IE. i tried your link still did not work...bummer. - R. Ferguson
I love this Hao. - ChaCha Fance
*spoiler* I never debugged on IE! *spoiler* Sorry, Arne, and thanks for catching that. - Hao Chen
I'm going to have to play with this later...but since Hao is involved, I'm sure it rocks! - Justin Korn from fftogo
Works fine on Safari 3.1.2, FYI. - Mark Trapp
Just fixed for IE! Ruth, please try again? - Hao Chen
Being able to sort the URL data output by either person or service instead of only by person would be nifty. - Laura Norvig
Laura, like grouping all twitter links together for example? - Hao Chen
it worked Hao!!!! - R. Ferguson
How does that work?I type in some user name in it,nothing happen... - Steve Chou
Steve, what browser are you using? Any JavaScript errors? - Hao Chen
Glad to hear you guys are finding uses for it. @Russell Right now, the list of services it displays is the list of services being imported by people's FF accounts, and since Blip.fm isn't a supported service yet, I can't add that in easily. I'll think about how to use the Social Graph API more effectively to do those things though. - Hao Chen
This is just excellent, not wholly accurate like you say but brilliant. Now all I need is to add more contacts on FF ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Excellent work. - Nicholas Kreidberg
very cool Hao - Dobromir Hadzhiev
Another great tool Hao :) - sergiooo
Never seems to work for my own username. - Andrew Trinh
Thanks, guys. :) Andrew, ah, looks like Social Graph doesn't see your FF subscriptions for some reason. http://socialgraph-resources.g... I'll re-code this using the Friendfeed API to get your subscriptions later. - Hao Chen
Very cool Hao! I like seeing which less-common services people actually use. My list (and top 25 services) is http://friendfeed.com/e... Does your system count me twice for YouTube because I have 2 YouTubes? (seems like it might, from the Blog counts). - Mitchell Tsai
It's not working for me either when I input my username. - Steve Lowe
Ditto steplow. Looks like it should be awesome but sadly it's drawing a blank for my username. :( - David Young
Great job, Hao - LouCypher
For anyone not getting results for their username, I'll post a fix soon, and let you know. - Hao Chen
@Mitchell Yes, it does count twice. - Hao Chen
Wonderful tool for improving connections. Thank you. - Keith - @tsudo
Is there any way to import the links to a Google Spreadsheet via the ImportXML function? See http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2007... and http://docs.google.com/support.... It seems it's impossible right now as the outputs appear via javascript. You could adapt it so that I could create a Google Spreadsheet template.... more... - Jérôme
still works. - Hao Chen

Dave Winer
If you're going to do an API please use XML.
Interesting why only XML for the API ? - Peter Dawson
No more JSON? - Jim McCusker
I agree; JSON is barely human readable. - Roger Jennings
But on huge sites, JSON may make sense from a price & performance perspective. - Jim McCusker
why use xml? and more generally what type of API? - Rob Diana
How 'bout you provide options so developers can use what's appropriate for their application? - Ken Sheppardson
If you are doing an API that will be accessed from a browser use JSON. XML is the wrong answer. But most people ought to just offer both. It is trivial to offer your API in several formats. - Sam Pullara
XML isn't supposed to read by humans, it's supposed to read y machines. But I like Same Pullara's point. Returning data in various types isn't that difficult. - Chris Jones
XML is more generic, but really its only presentation - make it as easy as possible for people to use by offering the output it in multiple formats (RSS, XML, ATOM,...). - martin english
JSON please. But really it's pretty trivial to do both - Benjamin Golub from fftogo
agreed. XML is universal and has things like XSL, XSLT, XPath, XQuery that you can use with it. JSON has no such ecosystem, just a quick and dirty way to parse a string. XML is more than a string. Plus, JSON has no way to validate it, as far as I remember. - Eric Marden
I like JSON better. It's faster and easier to parse IMO. - Winston Teo
If you intend your API to be consumed by a browser then please provide it in JSON. Its just so much easier and faster than having to parse XML. And JSON being barely human readable? Um, isn't that why we have computers now? And wow, do I remember the fuss that was made over XML back in the early 90's how that wasn't human readable. We got computers to read it for us as well. - Troy Forster from feedalizr
why is it so hard to support both? - Jesse McPherson
As several people have pointed out the best ideal is support multiple formats. JSON works best if your API is being consumed by a browser or similar platform where javascript is the language. If you're building a desktop app in something like .NET then the native tools to de/serialize XML are fantastic. RSS and Atom are XML with specific DTDs and there are tons of libraries optimized for these formats. - Troy Forster
Dave, has your opinion on this changed now that you have a JSON parser? - Original Flavor
Bret Taylor

And yes, June 15, 2010 :P - Rene, Pro Button Pusher
Our home. <3 - Prosey BUTTONS!
Very nice! - Anne Bouey
niiiiiiiice! - The Real sofarsoShawn
So much...wood - Mo Kargas
Rg, so few capitalists. ;) - Melanie Reed
RG, I know you're really aiming for the wiseass response from Rene, but keep in mind, I *am* a capitalist...always have been. I just happen to adhere to the principles of capitalism circa 1880, when it really was still an ideal, not a corporate bastardization. *sweet smile* - Prosey BUTTONS!
Thanks y'all! @Mo: it's the most stone I could find (3 sides stone!) without going broke. @RG: fish gotta swim .. - Rene, Pro Button Pusher
Also, as a socialist, I am doing my part to invest in the economy, to make the capitalist boat that was ran aground by greedy capitalists, afloat again *grin* ( I heart Keynes :P) - Rene, Pro Button Pusher
I will have to tell my kids about the anime garage doors; they will appreciate that. I chose to be close to the power lines to maybe get enough energy from them to get through all this :-) - Rene, Pro Button Pusher
WHOOHOOOOO FF MEETUP AT RENE'S!!! - The Real sofarsoShawn
Sounds like fun :D - Prosey BUTTONS!
Yes, *sounds* like fun ... :D - Rene, Pro Button Pusher
Wow, seems like quite a few people like our new house. How many of them are gonna come by with trucks & boxes and help us move...? *hint!* - Prosey BUTTONS!
Hold on a minute, I'm sure they'd expect us to water & feed them ... :P - Rene, Pro Button Pusher
Well sure...food and drink AFTER the last box is unpacked and everything is done...including wall hangings and curtains. We'll call dinner & beverages an "incentive" ... :D - Prosey BUTTONS!
Have you noticed how quiet it got all of a sudden? ;-) - Rene, Pro Button Pusher

If you want to import your Facebook status, you must have "Allow friends to subscribe to my status" checked on the "Status Updates" custom privacy setting at http://www.facebook.com/login.... This is the default, but a few people have customized it away.
Picture 78.png
Picture 79.png
Will "my network and friends" work too? - JA Castillo
I think that's fine JA. They key is to have the "Allow friends to subscribe to my status" checkbox checked (the one right above the red bar in the second screenshot). That dialog appears when you select "Customize..." from the "Status Updates" pulldown on the first screenshot. - Paul Buchheit
Wow, that totally fixed my issue. Thanks, Paul (and FriendFeed)! - Mark Trapp
Thanks! - georgeker
Thank you ! - Joan Dossetto
Sorry - this doesn't work. I have that box checked. Unimpressed. - Mathew
Matthew, Facebook has been through at least one major redesign since this entry was posted on 21st October. Anyone help Matthew in getting his FB imported in FF? - Kol Tregaskes
Kol is correct, Facebook has changed their interface since these instructions were posted. Unfortunately, they seem to have eliminated the "Status Updates" RSS feed entirely. If you can find it, let me know. - Paul Buchheit
The feed itself can't be gone - people who added it to FriendFeed before Facebook's UI changed are still having updates pulled in here. But as far as finding it now to add it...I've been unsuccessful. And modifying the URL of a working feed doesn't seem to work, either. - Jandy
Yes, the RSS feeds still exist at some level, but the UI for discovering their secret urls seems to have been removed. - Paul Buchheit
I'd love to know what the FFers think about all the changes that Facebook seems to be doing lately. - Eric Florenzano
btw - what i want to do is get my "wall" feed into FF. can't seem to get that, either. - MikeAmundsen
alas, seems like the Facebook people continue to want it to be a walled garden. - holly #ravingfangirl
I spent like half an hour last week trying to find my custom feed URL so I could import FB status into FriendFeed. No luck. =( - Darren
Looks like FB is kind of blocking FF. Kind of showing teeth =) - Durukan Duru
@Paul: do you anticipate Fb's announce this coming week about third-parties will give FF a chance to improve FF-Fb integration at all? - MikeAmundsen
Wondered how to do this when adding all my services. Thanks for the explanantion :) - Charley M
FB status is gone! - Lonnie Robinson
so how do we get facebook updates to friendfeed? - Noel Nuguid
Would like to know how to enable status, too! - Andreas Stolze
so, FB buys FF, I think status feeds will be back soon - Hakan İyice
@Hakan Agreed, they should be back soon, hopefully with the option to "CC Facebook" like you can with Twitter. - Nathan Snyder
@mamund Thanks for the link, but it didn't really help me. You wouldn't think it would be that hard to reenable this feed. - Nathan Snyder from IM
is there an update to how I should get a link to "My Status" in FB? I saw a workaround that has you creating a friend list on someone else's account... but that can't really be how you do it right? - Jason (not an Argonaut)
how's the ff/fb integration going paul? and thanks for the recent tech upgrades/fixes to ff! - Chris Heath

My Google Social Circle is polluted with a major turd. For some reason they are including some spamming splogger as a direct contact from chat & contacts, and I don't have him in my address book or anywhere else, and have blocked him on most social networks.

I found him & deleted him. Sneaky bastard contacted me by email, from my blog, using the name of one of his websites instead of his real name. I couldn't find him under his name in my contacts to remove him. But a search on all mail turned up the one he sent me asking me how much I would charge to do some custom template work for him.

2 Google web apps have replaced 2 Apple native apps. How many more until Apple opens up?

bring it on! - Tyson
Actually, I should remove the Messages icon too since Google Voice removes the need for that as well - Jesse Stay
Very good question! - Richard Walker
The Gmail app is no need for a web app, mail does it pretty well. - Steve Chou
probably, with their next breaking tech the iDepends...on the bottom line - The Real sofarsoShawn
Steve, not as well as Gmail - I can't mute conversations from FriendFeed, for instance, on mail.app - Jesse Stay
What's that us/canada app? - The Real sofarsoShawn
Shawn, that's TomTom - Jesse Stay
But mail can handle Google sync very well, no need to open an app to check email. - Steve Chou
what's TomTom? - The Real sofarsoShawn
Steve, but mail can't mute my FriendFeed conversations, nor does it do threads. - Jesse Stay
thx! gps & shizz - The Real sofarsoShawn
You can use a filter in Gmail to mute this, I have done that alreay. - Steve Chou
Steve, yes, which is why I use Gmail and not mail.app - Jesse Stay
When you made a filter, it won't show up on the mail app anymore. - Steve Chou
Steve, but then I have to use 2 applications. I just want to use one. With Gmail I simply press "mute this conversation" on the iphone and it's gone. - Jesse Stay
Also, search sucks for mail.app - Jesse Stay
@Jesse so you have all your mail accounts poped/imaped(sp?) to your Gmail? & I agree search is awwful! - The Real sofarsoShawn
Maybe, but I am much fond of the push Gmail on my iPod touch, especially for the push mail,contact and calendar. - Steve Chou
Steve, no need for push when you get it straight from the source. - Jesse Stay
Shawn, yes - all my email goes to Gmail. - Jesse Stay
very strange...interesting idea...liked - The Real sofarsoShawn
Google would replace my phone and SMS apps if Voice was available in Europe and mail if Gmail could send iPhone photos (as far as I know, it can't). - Jérôme from iPhone
I tried it but the Google Voice web app still leaves much to be desired through no fault of Google whatsoever. I need alerts and badges but you can't do those with a web app. You can get around that by using SMS and email to alert you but then you have moved off of the Google Voice web app and onto native apps. When you check your SMS messages in the app they don't come from the contact... more... - Benjamin Golub
Also Google Voice and mobile-to-mobile minutes don't play nice. Again, not Google's fault, but it's holding me back. - Benjamin Golub
One of the points here against web apps is response. You won't get calls coming in on your phone via a web app. You can only make calls. Secondly, I don't think people will be willing to pay for web apps. It will destroy the income base of developers, unless you do a 37 signals... but would you pay? I'm worried about the limits here. Ideas anyone? - DC Crowley
The Voice and Gmail webapps don't do the trick for me. They're too slow and unresponsive. I use GVMobile and mail.app instead, because they're just faster and easier. Also, using Google Sync to give me push notification of email is a major thing that I couldn't give up easily. - Otto
DC Crowley: Google Voice routes incoming calls just fine, so not sure what you're talking about there. - Otto
The hacks that Google Voice needs to use to leverage the iPhone system are a dealbreaker. It calls a random number to connect a call placed through the web app, so call history is useless on the iPhone. Calls are received through the iPhone's native app, so I have to use two different apps to accomplish one task anyway. That's lame: it's like having a land line to receive calls and a... more... - Mark Trapp
Yes, the webapp's calling functionality is quite annoying. GVMobile does it better with the call-back mechanism. You place the call, you instantly receive a call that appears to be from the person you are calling. You answer, then it starts ringing the other end of the connection. Every call appears like a received call in the history, but that's relatively minor and easy to deal with. - Otto

Friendfeed has far juicer discussions, debates, and examples of 'civil discource' compared to the rapid fire trading of information in twitter, or 'longer form' content of blogs. The Three bears: "aaaah just right"
Well, one must admit threads can get long & tedious. And trolls are sometimes a problem, but, totally agree w/juicier discussion! ;-) - Barbara K. Baker
My old strategy have been: longtailing (often gets commentary months after a post and it can re-ignite the discussion) = blogs, noteblocking (commentaries less but is somewhat a way to discus bout an topic that isn't mine but something I have found)=tumblr and shorthand-firing it up (discussion heaten up but dies after an hour or a day and never is shown again) =Jaiku. But after this weekend with Jaiku down Friendfeed is a beacon and I haven't missed Jaiku. - Niclas Strandh
Glen: FriendFeed is cool because every post can become a discussion spot. The down side is 1,000,000s of "spots" which never get much discussion. It does suck that until you reach some critical-awareness (or "group" of followers) that no one comments or likes your posts unless you get a FofF effect from someone liking/commenting your item. I don't think it's on purpose. Just no one here can follow everything... Join active threads/spots and post good stuff...eventually people may discover you. - Mitchell Tsai
@Glen Campbell (glenc): I have hope that the more I respond (intelligently, which admittedly is a stretch for me) to the posts of others, the more my own posts will receive responses. I know that I need to do better than I have been doing with my own posts. I can't say I know the experiences of others. - MiniMage, enterRUPPted from NoiseRiver
Well... if this isn't a discussion of juice and fire I haven't seen any anywhere :) : http://friendfeed.com/e... - Niclas Strandh
"eventually people may discover you" - this is a little like the web in general, isn't it? If you want to hurry along the process then doing what @MiniMage suggests is good advice @Glen Campbell. - TDavid

Daring Fireball: What if the tablet is called Canvas? - http://daringfireball.net/linked...
"Regarding the Apple invite, and just throwing this out there: what if it’s called “Canvas”? Even without considering the invitation design, I love this name. It looks good, it sounds good, and it evokes the right feelings and ideas: thin, light, clean, crisp, blank, the thing great artwork is made upon. It’s a perfect name." - Kevin Fox from Bookmarklet
Great thought. Or what about Palette? I don't like the trend they're going with the "iEverything" names. Names like that would go well with their announcement advertising. - Jesse Stay
Good possibility and double meaning could come from the fact that Flash cannot be installed and you need to use HTML5 Canvas. - Andrew Smith
There are a few trademarks that might infringe: http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin... http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin... The second one especially. - Mark Trapp
What about Easel? - Adewale Oshineye
If I were Apple I'd be worried about Edsel jokes, given the drubbing the Newton got. - Kevin Fox
Also, Apple Easel doesn't exactly trip off the tongue. - The original Kevin
How about palette? - Kevin Fox
How about e-Easel? Oh yeah. - Josh Haley from iPhone
Canvas is better than Palette, IMO. A canvas is what you paint on. A palette is what you paint with. Plus, palette reminds me of the wooden things that are used for shipping cargo. Here's another thought: what if they went with another famous creative person (a la Newton) and called it something like the Rembrandt? Errrr, never mind... - The original Kevin
AJ Batac :)
"The history of the visual design of user interfaces can be described as a gradual change towards more realism. As computers have become faster, designers have added increasingly realistic details such as color, 3D effects, shadows, translucency, and even simple physics. Some of these changes have helped usability. Shadows behind windows help us see which window is active. The physicality of the iPhone’s user interface makes the device more natural to use." - AJ Batac :) from Bookmarklet
short, interesting and applicable. thanks for sharing - Alan Le
We were talking about this a few months ago. Especially in how games or websites can get a thumbs down quickly because of lack of "realism". - Anika
@Anika - WRT games, McCloud's bit on 'masking' might be applicable. (It's in Understanding Comics, talking about how comics like Cerebus or certain manga have very cartoony characters but realistic worlds and objects.) - Andrew C (✓)

"Protecting your MacBook is a top priority and it’s job one for BookBook. Slip your Mac inside the velvety soft, padded interior. Zip it closed and your baby is nestled between two tough, rigid leather hardback covers for a solid level of impact absorbing protection. The rigid spine serves as crush protection for an additional line of defense. BookBook creates a hardback book structure that safeguards your MacBook like few other cases can. Far better than any floppy neoprene bag ever will. End of story." - Derrick from Bookmarklet
