FriendFeed Blog: A whole new FriendFeed - http://blog.friendfeed.com/2009/04/whole-new-friendfeed.html
We launched! - Bret Taylor
Nice. I like the Email/IM notification accordion the the home page. The people who stayed on legacy FriendFeed are going to feel this one. - Mark Trapp
Can we get an old.friendfeed.com - Andrew Smith
Congrats! - Stephen Mack
@Andrew Smith +1 - Hüseyin Mert
Awesome :) - Ross Miller
At last ! - Luka
congrat's - mike "glemak" dunn
Zachary: we updated the "settings" page ("settings" link below your name in the top right); everything should be in there now. Let us know if you notice anything missing. - Tudor Bosman
horrible :S we want old FF - Kaan Ukturk
Guys, you're doing a bad thing launching half-baked version without a notice. There's at least no imaginary friends and I can't export my subscriptions now (I've used FrF as RSS reader and have hundreds of them). That's not mentioning another little tweaks you've missed (i.e. service icons — even FaceBook got it right, they have service icons for imported entries and have no for their own status updates). You're ruining the whole experience of managing a lot of information. - Yury Vetrov
It's awesome. I really appreciate http://friendfeed.com/setting.... Also, I don't want to be negative, but is the "live search" coming? - Jérôme
congrats! now back to "listening to your users" pls :) - Phil Smirnov
please give back old friendfeed, this one looks bad - ˈpɛbə
Juras, I think there are one other % of FF users who feel the same. Same think happened to Facebook users. But we've to move on. Imaginary friends can be added as "feed". The lack of service icons AFAIK increased the generic participation (in Friendfeed). You can create filters for "service=" if it's necessary. I agree with you on the OPML part. - Jérôme
Rock & Roll! Very happy with the interface. Thanks for listening to the considered opinions you have, and implementing fixes when necessary. You guys have done a fantastic job of keeping people informed of new changes. - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
Those who can't handle the real-time, press Q: RT will be disabled by default for your account (re-press Q for the flood). - Jérôme
Juras: I'm pretty sure they've been letting everyone know about this for some time...Where have you been? - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
The settings to automatically post likes or comments to Twitter are missing. - Pat Hawks
couldn't you just put the old FF to old.friendfeed.com or somewhere like that? - @barisunver #beyn.org
Bret, you SHOULD check this out. New realtime version has JavaScript errors can be observed in Firebug: http://i39.tinypic.com/33u64qp... Now, I got 93 error. I think you changed something about AJAX response format (?) - Alp
+1 Rob, this is hardly without notice. They've been shouting about it for weeks. - Pat Hawks
Alp: thanks, we are looking into the issue - Bret Taylor
Always there are those resistant to change. I remind you all of the last couple of Facebook updates. At least the FriendFeed team listens and responds to complaints, problems and issues, and corrects them when necessary ----Big smiles and kudos for that! - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
@jeromeflipo: FrF was internet's GTD tool — one inbox for all links and discussions with accurately separated content. Now it's a vast of content where you should read instead of scanning. It takes much more time. New design is good but core features doesn't work properly. - Yury Vetrov
You can find your Twitter publishing settings at http://friendfeed.com/setting.... You can find all the links to your settings by clicking the "settings" link under your name at the top right of every page (http://friendfeed.com/...) - Bret Taylor
I love the new FF. Just wonder if the play/pause state can be remembered, so people might disable realtime updates. - arnaldostream
Bret, how do I get to the Advanced Twitter settings from the settings link under my name? I don't see it. - Pat Hawks
Bret, you're welcome. I hope you don't remove http://friendfeed.com/realtime option for nostalgy :) By the way, in new version how can we learn users have subscribed us? You removed it from user popup dialog. And I think user-info popup has many whitespaces :) Why don't u fill them with comment/like stats? It shows the activity of user. I think it is critical. - Alp
Would be great to get the "best ofs" in a list via email too. - Steve Rubel
i love it! - patrick
The play/pause state is remembered, so you can permanently turn off real-time if you don't want it. Steve: great point, we will add the ability to get "Best of" emailed to you. - Bret Taylor
Play/pause wasn't remembered once, now it works. Maybe it was my mistake, thanks! - arnaldostream
Nice work. - Caleb Elston
trying to enable IM notifications - maybe just slow? Not getting anything on the ol' GTalk.. - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
love the new site, once I got use to it, keep up the good work - Kim Landwehr
i really love the new interface :) - alexandere
what?! beta can't be over, it's only been three weeks! - Edward Zwart
Bret: I'm not seeing the posting link on the settings page: http://www.flickr.com/photos... How do you get to it without memorizing the URL? - Mark Trapp
@Yaroslav, totally agree. - Лёша
First impression: new design just sucks compared to the old one, ant to the twitter's, if that's what you want to be like. - Энди
no, please, this doesn't make sense!! - Giovanni Calia
Feedback : I want old FF ... Pls old.friendfeed.com - Hamza Şamlıoğlu @TEAkolik
wo0T! the IM notifier ROCKS...I'M uber-stoked on that feature. (IM is the new email! lol!) - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
No offends, but seriously, the visual design sucks. - Лёша
I wish it could use a little more of my monitor screen real estate. :) - Ray Cromwell
Bret, Dan or s.b. else, another CRUCIAL PROBLEM I discovered, after this new release, when people subscribed to me, I got notification mails entitled "... subscribed to your Friendfeed" twice or three times (which have a few minutes of delay between each other). You changed anything about mails settings(?) My friends ALSO reported that they get 2+ mails for new subscriber notifications. - Alp
Mark, you can find the posting link from the Tools page (found at the bottom of any page) - Dan Hsiao
If you are going to give us all of this (wasted) grey space to the side of our live feed, at least let us put our own background on the page. I mean, that would make you that much more like twitter, which seems to be the goal. - Wizetux
Qwerty: did you get a stupid picture gift (or see a bunch of "Which 70s rockstar are you" quizzes? LOL! -That's how you'd know you're on Facebook. (oh, and the new spam that they have there....got my first one today!) - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
Bret: Can I post via IM? If so can I CC:Twitter from there? - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
doh! I didn't see the help link in the IM. I have another reading lesson scheduled for tomorrow - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
ok...the CC:Twitter via IM question still stands....if not, can you think about adding that? - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
Really like the new UI. Thanks! - Oliver Bouchard
I need the feed icons back. - ˈpɛbə
i really like the new look and feel - the page scrolling when it auto-updates takes a little getting used to. - J.D. Deutschendorf
http://friendfeed.com/sunipey... change your avatar now..! - Kaan Ukturk
Dan Hsiao: aha! Thanks. - Mark Trapp
Mark, it's now available under your settings too :) - Dan Hsiao
Awesome, thanks Dan. - Mark Trapp
How do I add virtual friends? - ˈpɛbə
The best thing about this is that ff.im now points at the new design. - Steve and 3 other people
doubt i can get easily used to the "new" ff :( still have a firefox tab open on the realtime, with the old layout. guess i will just keep it as long as i can 0:) - giuseppe c. | markgreene
I'm disappointed Imaginary friends has disappeared. I was actually using that feature to follow friends on Twitter (who didn't have FF accounts). Is there a way to do the same thing? - Marc Chung
looks gr8! - Amit
FOR ALL OF THOSE WANTING IMAGINARY FRIENDS: http://friendfeed.com/about... - Wizetux
@Wizetux Thanks. Btw, your caps are on :) - Marc Chung
New interface sucks. It really sucks, and giving headaches. You shouldve kept the old interface. Thanks for ruining one of my daily routines. - deerstep
lovin it. are the best-of-summaries für the lists coming back? - Marcel Weiß
@Marc: I know, I was attempting to yell over the noise of the grumbling over the new layout. - Wizetux
Will it help if I join the crowd disliking the new version? Can't follow the conversation, too much color, too much moving around... - Handem
Bret where are best of for lists? I don't see them anymore. - Steve Rubel
The landing page - friendfeed.com - is especially great ! - Ahsan Ali
Bret, Turkish users ask a favor; please, we ask for old.friendfeed.com ~ old style, look our avatars. - Hüseyin Mert
Not gonna happen, dude. Progress is progress. - LANjackal
I don't understand how to create Imaginary Friends. Yes "create a feed", whatever that's real helpful, not. I think the source for every entry should be an icon on the right like the previous version. Real-time updates are interesting and comments are the only reason to use this over twitter. New posting feature is good but everyone isn't on FF so I need Imaginary friends to continue to use FF or else buh-bye! - Jude
@Jude The terminology is a bit confusing: It should really read "create a group" and add feeds to the group: Click "Browse /edit groups" > "Create a group". Setting it to private is basically the same thing as creating an Imaginary friend. - Marc Chung
恭喜上线 - 阿石
Please, old style friendfeed interface.New interface is wrong... - nagas
Great job! It's SOOOOOO lightweight! It works on all my mobile devices! I love you guys! Nowadays it's so nice and rare to see redisign which doesn't make an interface a slow-working monster - orie from fftogo
@Marc, @Wizetux thanks for clarifying. At some point during the beta they were using the terminology, "create a feed" and now you have to click on Groups in order to get to the place to "create a feed" but you have to know that it's called "create a group" - AWKWARD ... I think that is a navigational fail and a nomenclature fail. "Create a feed" is important enough that it should have it's own link on every page OR Groups should just be called Feeds. - Laura Norvig
Yep. It's one of the most enjoyable and notable addition in years in the way it's handled. It's in its complexity where, as the experiment is, as a whole a very as speedy, as you want it and as slow as reading is. Missing everything or nothing. Noticing and warming up of individuals, all linked by that exercise, always now expanding. Good job to all of you, the ideas were really good in all ways. As played out. Many thanks. ;p - Zu from AOD
for the interface. I think it is not as good as old edition. - Ccming
I WANT THE OLD VERSION PLEASE!!!!!!!!! - TechFuga
I hope you have read my bug report above. - Alp
or can we have a link for the old version!!!! - TechFuga
One more request: can we please have an API for userscripts? Due to dynamic nature of pages it suddenly became very hard to do anything persistent to FriendFeed from Greasemonkey. All I need is a hook from inside FrF javascript to process new portions of pages. - Alex Kapranoff
+1 to Alex Kapranoff's request. Also, please at least bring back service icons (them missing really interrupts my parsing of the stream, especially with those big ass avatars), if you won't provide us with http://old.friendfeed.com (or http://classic.friendfeed.com :P) - Gina Häußge
Gina, there is a user script to add service icons, in case that helps: http://userscripts.org/scripts... - Micah
Micah, thanks, already found that (first thing was to look up on userstyles and userscripts for means to help myself ;)), but it's kind of a hack, and IMHO it would be way better if the FF team included that feature back into the code base. Don't know why anyone would consider it a good idea to remove it in the first place tbh, but hey, we all know these days... - Gina Häußge
I don't want to use this. There must be alternative to use old FF - altblog
Congrats, guys. Even works on IE6 now. - James Myatt
get over it and use a third party client... you sound like people who use CDs - Kemp Edmonds from twhirl
Kemp, show me one that works as well and is as visually appealing as the old site (and also on both windows and linux without depending on Air (because that still kinda sucks under Linux)) and I'll shut up ;) - Gina Häußge
sadly as a windows user and therefore pleeb (Slang for plebian. Often used to refer to noobs in an elitist sense.) by Macers and Linux' who can't help but be the envy of all. Sadly I sit contented by massive numbers of development projects and a variety of programs to choose from that is generally unlimited in cutting edge web apps... although I am a windows pleeb. - Kemp Edmonds from twhirl
@Micah I tried the script. It doesn't work with imaginary friends. - ˈpɛbə
now look super - Faizar
How do I create imaginary friend feeds in the new gui? - Carlos Brefe
Ouch, don't like. Agree with some of Juras V's comments, this makes skimming my feed for keeping a pulse on info/discussions MUCH worse for the time-starved (not speaking of RT aspect). Oh well, will try this for a bit, but feels like point where in Tom Peters' language FF is moving to "fire me as a customer." (Yes, I know we're not paying customers. I would have paid for old svc, was... more... - Casey
Will the daily activity emails (basically a digest) resume? Mine seemed to halt Apr 27 and the Email settings which seem currently available are absolutely flooding my inbox (had to turn it off within 5 mins). Please bring back daily digest type emails, really helpful if away for business or other reasons and ability to skim to catch up on info. - Casey
@mchung Thanks for trying to clarify. Although creating a feed does not work the same since if a person already has a feed that's private, I can't use the same name. Bring back imaginary friends!!! - Jude
Congrats FF... sorry I am late to the party...my work life is outta control... crazy busy! I miss FF :(..... - Susan Beebe
My impression of the new Friendfeed... http://j-m-williams.com/2009... - Jason Williams
This is awesome! Back from the future! I _cant_ use twitter anymore. _cant_. - Lakshman Prasad
Its not my friendfeed, its a horrible dream! :(( - Инк Лонгтан
you need a graphic designer or art director i think. - Furkan Tunalı
dislike :( - Trou Macacq
design (layout, interaction) had been mostly better in old variant, but AJAX engine you use in new variant just rocks (old ajax code was dead meat slow crap for desktops on steroids) - Отборнейший бред
Veronica
Ack! New Friendfeed surprised and upset me!
Trying to get used to it... slowly.... - Veronica
There's a nice email/IM menu in the Home top bar. Love it. - Jérôme
I looked at it like once. - Veronica
Woah! Very different! Not sure I like this whole not-being-able-to-tell-which-kind-of-update-it-is - Amy
I've been using the beta and i really like it a lot - alexandere
The same happened to me ^^ Think it's a little bit too twitter-like - Johannes W.
Come come, you can't have NOT been using the beta? It's ok, it will soon wash over you like a earn wave of goodness. It's way better than the Facebook redesign, anyway. - Mike Nayyar
I'm a Cancer, we don't do change well. - Veronica
I don't get the Email/IM at the top just yet...hmmm - Jude
I'm a cancer too, but never really got into friendfeed before the beta, so it was more of a new beginning - alexandere
Out with the old and in with the new FF. - Pedro Fonseca
The 'discussions' bit is nice. (And clearly I was blind earlier about types of updates). How did people find out about the beta though? - Amy
That would be a negatory there. :P - Amy
i dont like new FF.i wish that FF serves us the OLD FF at any subdomain. - tunahan
I don't like it either, change is bad - Fee501st
Time is the healer of all. The new functionality has really grown on me. - Jonathan Hardesty from fftogo
If all of us were really as resistent to change as we claim to be though our incessant complaints about everything, then we'd all still be calling from phones attached to the wall and getting up to change the channel. - Fleagle

2009 Sita is a goddess separated from her beloved Lord and husband Rama. Nina is an animator whose husband moves to India, then dumps her by e-mail.
