Interesting graphic - but I question the data. Is the Average american consuming 18.73 hours of media per day??? That leaves only 5.27 hours for everything else (like sleeping, eating, and doing actual work). I'd love to see this chart with CORRECT data in it.

If Scobleizer is at the top of most popular list for the service, the web service has NOT gone mainstream yet. For instance, a year ago I was at top of Twitter. Today, no.

Yes, Twitter gamed this list by doing a suggested user list (@techcrunch had fewer followers than I did before they did this list and didn't put me on it) but lots of these people would have passed me anyway like @oprah -- so, this is how you can check if a service has gone mainstream.

It is interesting, though, that popularity over on Twitter hasn't passed over to popularity on FriendFeed. Most followers that come from "mainstream" won't try new things.
- Robert Scoble
Mark: I expect it. The real measure, by the way, is NOT follower counts, which is why these lists aren't very good, but engagement. Do people click favorite, retweet, like, comment, do things because of the content you are making and the things you are putting into the system. That's the real measure of popularity that I wish sites like ffholic would track.

@Oprah doesn't follow back, so she's not as much fun as you are.
- RobinDotNet
+ Robert!
- Myrna
Robin: that's not why I'm more fun. I'll actually comment back. :-)

Ah, the John Lennon test. ("The Beatles are bigger than Jesus.") ??? (not meant to be as snarky as it sounds)
- Laura Scott (@lauras)
Robert -- EXACTLY! Oprah's just using it to broadcast stuff, and not often at that. Zzzzzzz.
- RobinDotNet
Robin: I hate the idea that being followed is what makes you important. I wish that those numbers wouldn't be published in public. I'd far prefer seeing an "interaction" number. That would still show popularity (after all, if 20 people are following me, and 10 are following you, and we interact the same, I would still have twice the number of you). Actually, I wonder how you could measure that?
- Robert Scoble
One of the things that bugs me about Twitter is that they refer to those you follow as your "friends". I actually don't like the term followers either. I don't "follow" @aplusk nor am I his friend. I read his tweets because once in a while he says something interesting. I do have friends on Twitter, but most of the people I read have never corresponded with me and they do not read my...

- Paul The Raven
Paul: Exactly. I made a "get satisfaction" request of Twitter a year ago to allow us to create categories of people, so I could distinguish my real friends from people I just follow. It got some support, but was never done. One of the many ways Friendfeed is better.
- Keith Barrett
@Keith Barrett The beauty of Twitter is its simple model, complicate like you are suggesting and it will implode. There are plenty of apps that provide those functions, like Tweetdeck, Seesmic - use them if you wish to break out into categories.
- Amy Flynn
Robert! I love your new new measuring tool! I am going to ask every service I encounter what their "Scoble Number" is and if they can't provide me one, I'm walking!! ;-) I'll take it a step further, I think all blogs should have a Scoble Number we can display, the number of visits and reads from Scoble! The Scoble System... it's plan and it's doable! You on it?
- Amy Flynn
Amy: heh. That is taking things too far.
- Robert Scoble
What's the "Scoble Number" on MySpace ... I hear it's the next big thing. ;)

It's a social experiment. My bet? Not everyone fills it out and people try to reuse codes. :)
- Louis Gray
If you create another Google Doc for adding more codes, I have a few to share.
- David Damore
David, you could add your three to the bottom of this document. Everyone has edit privileges.

Thank you, Louis.

I picked one that was aesthetically pleasing to me.

So, I have some specific questions about LazyFeed. This might not be the space for it -- do you have any posts about it? Is there a FAQ?
- Ben Hanten
Got one, thanks.
- Keith Rowland
Ben, here is a video tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch...
- Louis Gray
Thanks for this offer Louis!
- Bryan Lee
You're welcome, Bryan. I heard they may open up soon, too.
- Louis Gray
Anyway I can reserve a code without registering it for a blog post on lazy feed?
- Bryan Lee
Thanks for the video link. Pretty much answered everything. I was hoping there would be option for all topics to stream, too.
- Ben Hanten
Thanks Louis!

This website has an indirect benefit for me. After connecting Twitter, flickr, delicious, and my blog, I can finally see which of my interests I like the most and which are really lacking.

Thanks, Lazyfeed is looking quite cool.

Cheers Louis

thanks for doing this, I gave the service a try and it's pretty good. It certainly lives to its name! I like the fact that using it will certainly expose me to new websites I've never visited before.
- David Rodriguez
Thanks for the code! I'm looking forward to seeing what LazyFeed is all about... - Great way of giving out your codes with minimal effort :)
- Roy Herrod
Thank you Louis, Lazyfeed is an incredible tool and has many untapped potential uses. I work for a major UK agency and been involved in many aspects of digital media for over 13 years. Believe me it has huge potential.

I got a Lazyfeed account, tried it for a bit but I don't really 'get' it

I really like Lazyfeed it's got potential
- Thomas Power
OK - I've been using it. Impressive--but would love to get sharing / blogging on it. I gather the rapid response team is building some of that as we speak....

Lan, it really is crazy how many ways you can connect on various networks - you won't ever need to leave google. They will know your fave foods, buddies, have your SMS messages, share you party pics, everything. That is just the beginning.
- Liza
It can do all that now?
- David Damore
Endless options. Think Friend Analytics?

Or, better yet, Google Boyfriend Analytics - that would be cutting edge.
