Yeah, I'd like it too. And to underscore the usefulness of such a feature I created this room with the deliberate intent of deleting it as soon as "delete room" becomes available. http://friendfeed.com/rooms...
- Dominic Jones
I would like this feature too... if only, to give a room a fresh (content) start...

Seit langem ist die Nachweissituation für digitalisierte Drucke in Deutschland ungenügend. Viele einschlägige Projekte oder Titel lassen sich entweder nicht oder nur sehr schwer auffinden. Um diesem immer wieder beklagten Mangel abzuhelfen, bauen die AG Sammlung Deutscher Drucke (SDD), die Verbundzentrale des Gemeinsamen Bibliotheksverbundes (VZG) und das Hochschulbibliothekszentrum (hbz), gefördert von der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), seit dem 1.4.2005 ein Zentrales Verzeichnis Digitalisierter Drucke (zvdd) auf, um einen zentralen Nachweis und Zugang zu digitalisierten Bibliotheksmaterialien bereitzustellen. Die Metadaten zu den Digitalisaten sollen auf Titel-, Struktur- und Volltextebene erfasst und in einen gemeinsamen Datenbestand eingespielt werden.

what do you like better about feedly then friendfeed or others? just curious. I'm trying to cut back, not add more tools, great s they might be. i'm exploding!
- washwords
Can I like this 3x. Thanks for a GREAT recommendation, Bwana. My new fave Firefox extension.
- Leo Laporte
Wow, even the screensaver function is cool...I might be leaning to feedly and away from greader...
- Anthony Farrior
Revisited based on a few 'endorsements' here on FF. Wow. Easy, fast, just cool.
- Charlie Anzman
What are the implications of "no thanks"? Same as "Mark as read"?
- Andrew Smith
@cecily if you get a chance, go to the feedly dashboard (through dashboard link at the top right of the screen) and click on the star next to the sources you like the most and see if the what's new page looks any better. The other option is to click on the "cover" icon on the top left on the nav bar and see if that view is more diggestable. If you have specific ideas on how to make the interface more appealing let us know!
- Edwin Khodabakchian
@andrew no thanks = mark the article as read + let the feedly recommendation engine know that you did not like this recommendation. This metadata is then used with other criteria to unfluence future recommendations.
- Edwin Khodabakchian
I installed and uninstalled all in 1 minute.
- Aaron Myers
Erhan, thanks :) I need to learn how to utilize it properly before I screencast it...it's coming soon though, I love this thing
- Bwana ☠
Looks promising, but I'm always suspicious of extensions that don't come from Mozilla addons site...
- João Almeida
What do you guys say to the folks who say Feedly crapped all over their Google Reader (adding feeds to it)?
- David Risley
It's in this thread David: http://friendfeed.com/e... We asked for a bigger warning since the one there is easily missed, the Feedly guys chime in as to why they did it that way. It doesn't "crap" all over your feed, it does create new folders, but they are easily removed. They are working on an undo procedure as well.
- Bwana ☠
I'm really liking Feedly as well. We'll see how it goes
- Shey
iGoogle has been my home page for well over a year and what I have found is that via widgets its generally there for me to either click on gmail or to go into google reader - the other widgets are generally worth an odd glance but thats about it - I've put feedly as my home page and will see how this works out - but first impressions is a clean easy to use interface even if you have a few hundred feeds to juggle..
- Jican
Feedly is awesome: I had a few hiccups after installation, but I re-installed, and it has been a real help in 2 ways: 1) motivated me to clean up my feeds and sort them into a major category 2)motivates me daily to actually skim through and read the content that is closest to my current interests. well done!
- Terri MacMillan
Not dissing Feedly, but didn't experience anything that made me want to give up Google Reader when I tried Feedly a few months ago. Anyone care to explain why I should try again?
- Chris Stevenson
I don't work for them, so I don't see a reason to convince you. Some people like it, some don't.
- Fleagle
Hi Chris: feedly tries to provide a magazine like summary of your google reader. Some users only care about productivity and find the magazine like interface a step backward. Some users like it and use it in concert with their google reader. Some people prefer using the magazine like interface only.
- Edwin Khodabakchian
Robert - deja vu, but I thought this was available a month or so ago??? Here's mine: http://www.google.com/reader... - NOW, can we pls discuss Google's unfriendly Friend Connect. It is a bear to install, except on Blogger, as you have mentioned in the past.
- Liza + = ?
Isn't anyone else concerned that this gives away your gmail account address? That is, if your custom reader url is http://www.google.com/reader..., then your gmail address is necessarily someperson@gmail.com. That's why I didn't enable this in Google Profile before. Even though Google's spam filter if super, I'm not wanting to attract more spam. Am I being overly cautious here?
- Chris Spizzirri
"It has changed the way I consume and share content, and the coolest thing is that Feedly supports the SUP methodology that FriendFeed uses, so that things that you react to on Feedly are immediately posted to your FriendFeed page. You can even “like” and comment right from the application and see the conversations around the posts back on FriendFeed."

I first became addicted to feedly then I discovered friendfeed. It's a great together, love the way when surfing the web you can see whether a certain page has been discussed or is being discussed on ff.
- Jacob
Jorge, I think Feedly is fantastic. I would absolutely use it if it ran native in Safari. Also, as I like to be "first" to stories, I still tend to use the Google Reader interface and power through. So I am a Feedly fan even if I don't use it every day.
- Louis Gray
I agree, too :) I have not used GReader since I discovered feedly.
- Roberto Bonini
Feedly also helps me to know what to share, as it tells me if a blog post or news article is already being shared by others. At that point I can just 'like' it, instead of cluttering FriendFeed with more repetitive stuff. Love it!
- Jorge Escobar
Thanks Jorge. We are indeed very big Friendfeed fans. More integration points soon.
- Edwin Khodabakchian
Come to think of it, Firefox should invest in them (at least) ;)
- Jorge Escobar
For those of you interested in Chrome and Safari support, please send me an email to edwink@devhd.com and I will see if we can give you early access to something we are working on (Louis you are already on the list)
- Edwin Khodabakchian
I like Feedly. It doesn't make me feel bad for not powering through all my GReader posts. It feels more natural somehow: like reading the paper instead of, er, a bunch of RSS feeds.
- David Young
If one is using FriendFeed as one's primary Feed aggregator/filter/reader, is Feedly still necessary?
- Alex Schleber
@Alex I think there is a different need for both. Consuming RSS feeds via a reader is something that some people prefer. I certainly tried to use FF as my reader, but there was something missing.
- Jorge Escobar
I use an love Feedly, I have tried to use FF as my feed aggregator but I agree with Jorge Escobar, there is something missing, maybe its the ability to save for later or the layout, but what ever it is I keep going back to Feedly.
- Kim Landwehr
When you share to FF using feedly, is there a way to make it show the picture?
- Pixie
any images on the post you share will be post in FriendFeed automatically
- Jorge Escobar
from IM
Hi Alix, if you post the description of the problem you are seeing at getsatisfaction/feedly, we can try to help you troubleshoot it.
- Edwin Khodabakchian
works for me... maybe the image on the post you are sharing is not standard
- Jorge Escobar
from IM
Sorry...did not see the previous post about what was not working... Yes. to share a picture, before you click on the friendfeed share, ALT+click on the image you want to share. This will create an annotation using that image. Then click on the friendfeed share icon. Similarly, you can highlight snippets of texts and click on annotation in the popup menu. (We are working on making this a little more intuitive)
- Edwin Khodabakchian
I used Google Reader but never cared for it. Then I found Feedly and I love it! Thanks Edwin, I did not know myself how to share a picture in a story.
- Bonnie Foster
I love feedly, and the only reason I still open Firefox is to use it. I can't wait until they have an addon for Chrome!
- Michael Fidler
When I used to use Firefox, Feedly was essential. Now I use Safari so no more Feedly for me.
- Akiva
After installed, my GMarks stop working. I had to uninstall it. :(
- Burçak Çubukçu
Burçak Çubukçu: you are correct. There are incompatibilities with gmarks.
- Edwin Khodabakchian
That's some good news Edwin. now I feel more compelled to use FF (Firefox not friendfeed) quote: "Then click on the friendfeed share icon. Similarly, you can highlight snippets of texts and click on annotation in the popup menu. (We are working on making this a little more intuitive)"
- Ac0n (former Franc)
at this point yes, Rasheen. Chrome version is under development, though.

Somehow feedly isn't reading my Google Alerts feeds correctly from the latest tabs. How can I fix that?
- Amani
LOVING feedly. But how does it decide which FF conversation to link to when it says "join the conversation." Also, is there a way to share on FF from the feedly mini thing?
- Ted Roden
Jorge, thanks for highlighting this wonderful Feedly feature. I tried using it and gave it up, and now realize that I didn't really use the Friendfeed integration at all. Sigh! (Back to installing Feedly)
- Mahendra (SkepticGeek)
Edwin, any reason why my saved items page never loads anymore? Its been like this for about 3 days now.

"Sehr viele grundrechtsbeeinträchtigende Gesetze wurden in den letzten Jahren erst nachträglich vom Bundesverfassungsgericht gestoppt, weil das Parlament augenscheinlich nicht mehr dazu in der Lage ist, den Grundrechtsschutz der Bürger ausreichend zu gewährleisten und verfassungswidrige Gesetze bedenkenlos durchgewunken werden."
- Marcel Weiß
One thing I have noticed is that in any ovie, v show, etc where anything odd happens, the English are always portrayed as standing in place saying something like "This can't be happening" or some stupid thing like that, when it clearly IS happening. Is this some sort of national trait? I like to think that if, say, the dead rise and turn on the living, I would fight back + run to safety FIRST and worry about the ontological implications after.

My cousin dl'ed the Moron Test and tried to get me to take it. I told him he'd already failed because he was a moron for buying it in the first place. He was unamused. I wasn't.
- SOMEBODY!
To be fair, he's kind of a tool, so it's less a reflection of the app and more a reflection of how much I want to throw him off the nearest high-rise.
- SOMEBODY!
I notice that the U.S. is no longer a nation of morons -- for the last few days, "The Sims 3" is #1, so we're now a nation of replicants.

I don't know if I'm alone here, but I don't actually like having individuals and groups together in a single subscription list, I preferred them being separate.
Great idea I would like to see this, also I am intrigued to see how the API will incorporate this. AlertThingy and Twhirl will need to be tweaked!
- Joe Dawson
Would be very grateful for this feature, want to add FT Techfeed room to our blog (many thanks for the services feature just added)
- FT Update
Permission to bump this? It's been two months and rooms are still trapped in Friendfeed without an embed
- Chris Nuttall
I would like this as well... It's July and I don't see the capability to do it...
- Justin Long
Did we get this feature? Really would love this!
- Sumit Chachra
So now that Goodreads status updates are in the update feed, does FriendFeed need to do anything differently to make them show up in our feeds over here? http://www.goodreads.com/topic...
