Cliqset ? Seems like a mix between Tumblr and Friendfeed IMO. I´m only registered there, but I would have been really surprised if *The Second Scoble* had followed me there.
- Thomas Bøhm
It's very very slow. And getting slower as the day wears on.
- Matthew DeVries
I just had a buttload of follows today. I tried Cliqset a while back and really wasn't all that impressed.
- Jason Huebel
I think that there is a lot of potential here but it still needs a lot of work.
- Akiva Moskovitz
haha - that is indeed a true mark of early adopter-hood... congrats Akiva :)
- Susan Beebe
So this is a real service? Y'all didn't make it up to prank Robert?
- Andrew C
What did you do? break it? the service is down...
- Robyn Hawk
Who is Robert Scoble? Is he related to Scoobie Do¿?

Cliqset is unresponsive in assisting it's users in anyway. So I've decided that they're f'ing useless. I can't even delete my account.
- Jimminy Fuller
OMG. I want to see what "Where Are You, Scoble Do?" looks like! Get on it, Robert Smigel!
- Spidra Webster
Rational, Twitter usage is flattening, people are finally figuring out that Twitter sucks for having a conversation. People though Friendfeed was hard to use, try having to install several software 'crutches' to be able to use Twitter productively without even half the functionality as Freindfeed.
- Jeff P. Henderson
Either this is tounge in cheek or Robert really hasn't gotten over our breakup... Robert, I hope we can still be friends but we have to move on and grow... FriendFeed will always love you, but we need some 'us' time to find out who 'we' are... *cues The Bodygaurd soundtrack*... *walks out into the rain, adjusts collar, walks off down the road*... *fade to black, credits*

Comment bait. Even Robert can't generate interest these days.
- Russellreno
I agree. Friendfeed is for those who need more from a 2d interface. Until there spatial interface is there, Friendfeed is on top of the pyramid (especially when one knows how to use it best).
- Kirill Bolgarov
Lets hope so ... Miss some of my old peeps :)
- Charlie Anzman
I'm surprised Robert made this statement but I find it very interesting in the change of view and wonder what has changed his mind or if he knows more info.
- manielse (Mark Nielsen)
The unpredictably erratic Scobot is at it again...
- Ciro
Well, after glancing at his Twitter timeline, he's just making a bunch of joke predictions. I'd like to think that there's some truth in this one though...
- manielse (Mark Nielsen)
Sniffs... Do you smell that? It's what we used to call a troll. Robert is getting dangerously close to becoming irrelevent.
- Jason Williams
from iPhone
Robert is waiting until 2010 to respond to this thread. :)
- Louis Gray
Scoble - I disagree ONLY because I think that FriendFeed activity is already migrating to Facebook via deeper integration over there but I'm wiling to hear you out (as are the other 40+ people commenting here). Do share why you think this is true?
- Aaron Strout
I wrote this tweet for Twitter, not for FriendFeed. But nice to see you all! :-)
- Robert Scoble
Jason: I'm definitely irrelevant if the people calling me irrelevant don't even have 1,000 subscribers. Sigh.
- Robert Scoble
I actually see FriendFeed growing instead of slowing and there will also be new enhancements. A testing ground for Facebook. Just to expand, Robert's still the man!
- amarquart
Akiva wins the internets with this mathematical formula for spotting comment bait.
- Nicholas Kreidberg
You think we're fighting, I think we're finally talking! -all in one page
- Tim Jones
Funny, when I write, I write for everyone, everywhere
- Johnny Worthington
@Jason Williams, wow that's the pot calling the kettle black, doncha think? Robert's not a troll.
- Jason Huebel
@Kol, somebody mentioned that those stats often only consider US visitors (why that would be, I don't know). FF's non-US contingent has grown tremendously, so that graph may not show the whole picture.
- Jason Huebel
I'm finding that FriendFeed is fiendishly sticky. On Twitter lists do help, they make twitter better and all but but but-but I think a lot of users are getting more sophisticated in their web usage faster than Twitter can evolve their tech. Louis Grey recently postulated that even if there is no interaction on FriendFeed it makes complete sense to stay riding this horse. That got me...
more...
- JSLeFanu
Dude..... I totally hope you're right, but not too sure about this! LOL Explain your rationale please :)
- Susan Beebe
i agree with the original prediction. by the way, what's a resurgence? is it different than insurgents? :-)
- Morgan Haley
Morgan - the insurgents never left ... ;-p
- Robyn Hawk
I'll stay one faithful user, for those "outside the US" stats. Still feature plenty, still enjoyable. Still effective. Thanks for rallying the troops again Robert. Bring the hopes, and forget the ropes! 8)

I can without standing, but I'd most likely fall if I tried it standing.
- Jimminy Fuller
Oh if you can do this without standing, it means that you are uber talented at self-pleasure... hmm.. :P
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
SML, never tried but I've had plenty of people suggest it. I used to be able to jump up throw a leg around my neck and land on the other, doubt I could do that one now.
- Jimminy Fuller
@Jimminy.Fuller well take a photo of you doing whatever in whatever position and send it to me :)
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
At long last, she finally knows for sure if those pants make her butt look big.
- Josh Haley
Love how soulful your expression is in this pic.
- Spidra Webster
love your face in this pic. it says it all!
- Mary Carmen
*last gulp* ahhhhhhhhhhhh. Thinking to make that with the last of my pop was without a doubt one of the best brain waves I ever had. That's right up there with chocolate meets peanut butter.
- Kamilah Gill
If those ingredients can be found within metro Atlanta, I'm going to try one just because of the glassy eyed look of affection in your photo:)
- Roney Smith
All I can say is that after the fast, there is always something to look forward to. ;) That does sound absolutely wonderful! Will try. What do you think of adding some rum?
- Melanie Reed
This one was non-alcoholic, believe it or not. Rum might be fine in it, Melanie, but I'm not the best person to ask since I rarely drink. I mostly just have wine every once in a while.
- Kamilah Gill
Kamilah, same. But at Christmas time, I usually make rum balls (sans this year) and like to have a cap in my eggnog. Your recipe would be amazing with it I think. (I use spiced rum for the candy as it turns out better)
- Melanie Reed
YUM - one of my faves is coffee ice cream with cream soda... ;-p
- Robyn Hawk
That sounds pretty awesome, too, Robyn...
- Kamilah Gill
...I only wish that more people would give a "reason" for un-subscribing...I know that a while back I did a mass un-sub when I started using Google Reader. In essence not an unsub just a change in source...
- Robyn Hawk
Beautiful! Fantastic costume! Did your wife, Johnny, make the costume? (For a moment I confused you with Josh) Sorry! ;) Is she going to be in a ballet?
- Melanie Reed
We got it at our local department store. We had out annual Xmas carols on the weekend and this is what she wore
- Johnny Worthington
That is so great about the Christmas carols! And you have some department store: haven't seen anything as nice for little girls here. :)
- Melanie Reed
She is so adorable... I'm back in my `I want a daughter, I must be a father` thoughts... :)
- meric| zalambOdOnt |kara
Always in my"'want to be mother" thoughts. This is just an encouragement. ;)
- Melanie Reed
This is difficult to explain without sounding creepy but... There is nothing as beautiful than a woman who has just showered, in her pajamas, still damp hair and no make up... It's just hard to... well... find or ask people other than Rachael to let me photograph them like this... I know, weird, but you know...
"It's 50oC and has a humidity of 100%, less than a hundred people have been inside and it's so deadly that even with respirators and suits of ice you can only survive for 20 minutes before your body starts to fail. It’s the nearest thing to visiting another planet – it’s going deep inside our own."

yep this is going to get shut down when the mine that is pumping out zillions of gallons of water stops pumping the water in a few years. Need to visit as soon as possible......
- Robert Higgins
These are incredible! I would have thought these were Photoshopped if I didn't see lots more information. The people look like miniatures beside these enormous crystals. I had no idea that crystals could grow so large on Earth. Wonders really never do cease...
- Kamilah Gill
I watched a NatGeo show on this place. You know that if the coal mines don't stop pumping out the water...All the crystals will collapse. Crazy.

he is a big mush head, dont be scared.

That cat is plotting something. I can just see it in its eyes.
- Steven Perez
I think the cat is plotting to steal your breath while you sleep.
- Joe Pierce
Dio? were you a metalhead? I used to love Ronny Dio! BTW - black cats RULE they all seem to have great personalities...I have had 6 - right now I have a sweet all white cat with one blue eye and one green eye! ;-p
- Robyn Hawk
Yes, I am. I have two black cats: Ronnie James Dio and Darth Vader and one fat gray one named Abe Vigoda.

It's about time Starbucks started offering some Jewish holiday food! (Although macaroons are more Pesach than Chanukka.)
- Mark Davidson
from BuddyFeed
Macarons, not macaroons. There's a difference... I don't think macarons are especially a Jewish dessert, but I could be wrong. I really do want these!
- Kamilah Gill
I was unlucky enough to visit Paris before I knew what these were! wah! :( I'll be happy to try some from Starbucks, though. I might order some online from Laduree, or maybe, if I'm fortunate, I'll get back to Paris again.
- Kamilah Gill
Kamilah - when I get back to my computer, I'll send you a list of my favorite macaron places in the US - Bouchon and Jean Georges not included (they're too sweet and get the filling to cookie ratio wrong!) So glad to see there are people who love them as much as me! :) #macaronloversUNITE
- Mona Nomura
from iPhone
OK - how many of you Southerners think these look like fancy Moon Pies? Mona - is the filling really sweet? I really don't like sweets - my fave cookie is plain shortbread - would I like these?
- Robyn Hawk
Ugh... they better not be anything like Moon Pies. All the things I've read say they're crisp on the outside, and Moon Pies are not. They're also smaller in size. It also sounds like they come in a variety of subtle flavors. I need to taste one so that I can answer authoritatively!
- Kamilah Gill
Holy blasphemy -- macarons are FAR from Moon Pies. Comparing a macaron to a Moon Pie is like comparing a flank steak from Denny's to a 100% Wagyu (from Japan) from Cut restaurant in LA. :(
- Mona Nomura
(you're not saying the macaron is like the flank steak, are you? just checking because of the word order & things </being anal>)
- Kamilah Gill
He does, but I think his fur is shorter on his face! Also, he is missing a leg. That's how we can tell them apart! He always fidgets too much for pictures, so it was a rare treat to have him sitting still until Bella came and caused him to move.
- joey
He looks a lot like my RubyRoo, except her "black fur face mask" just covers the top of her head, ending immediately below her eyes, so her nose, mouth and lower cheeks are snowy white. Did I mention that she has "cute tootsie roll poops?"
- Mark "DerBingle" J
Oh, and I didn't notice the cat for quite awhile either.
- Mark "DerBingle" J
Nice Bracelet, did someone local make the beads (or the whole thing for that matter)?
- Joe
Joe, my parents brought it to me from a trip to Hawaii so it came from an artist local to there, but my aunt makes similar glass beads (and other things). She actually lives in NC, though, so I suppose she's not local either. But she is talented :)
- joey
Wow - those are lampwork beads? When you said Hawaii my mind immediately when to tagua nut - hmmm that is a great look! and two sweet kitties!
- Robyn Hawk
Oh, I'm an idiot. It's Murano glass (makes much more sense) not from Hawaii. My parents travel frequently for work and Hawaii was the last place they went (lucky them) before giving me the gift.
- joey
My mom loves murano glass I have bought her some pieces, I love the detail of it.
