I saw an early alpha of the iPhone app. Looked good. I also saw an early alpha of Seesmic web and the way it advanced between the alpha and launch was dramatic - so I expect the iPhone client will track the same way.

If they add friendfeed to the web app, I'll maybe use it instead of PeopleBrowsr. But then again, peoplebrowsr has implemented friendfeed in a very good way already.

You gotta keep an eye on Yahoo homepage. They have FB integration and someday may integrate Twitter (they have the 'what are you doing now'). Seesmic is way ahead, but Yahoo has mainstream adoption

This awesome viral video of a homeless dad has hit the Internet by storm! Don’t believe me? See for yourself. Queen’s ‘Under Pressure’ by Kermit… I Mean the “Homeless Dad” He writes (Maxmailbag)… don’t know if this is really him: “As I said this is a performance. I don’t want there to be any doubts about my situation. I am a performer. I have a roof over my head and I have yet to start my own family. But this video isn’t about me. This is for the men, women and children on our streets who don’t have bright green puppets on their hands. The people who aren’t always as easy to see. This is for you.” You got me there buddy!

If I'm at Krispy Kreme, it's a standard glazed. If I'm anywhere else, a blueberry glazed cake is hard to beat.

Original raised glazed, or a raised chocolate. Doesn't get much better than that to me.

A cheese danish or croissant. If that's not available, then I'll take a bagel.

Depends on how good the donut place is at various styles. Assuming they're great at everything, I'd order a devil's food cake donut.

Dream doughnut: sour cream cake topped with actual chocolate frosting, not that nasty brown glaze. The only place I've ever had one was a mom'n'pop doughnut shop in Myrtle Beach. GVegas needs a doughnut shop like that...
- FFing Enigma
sour cream batter donuts are delish.
- Nathan Chase

I like the Krispy Kreme originals, but anywhere else it would be the standard chocolate glazed. Filled ones are out of the question though--yuck!
- Kelly W.
From Dunkin it's a sour cream donut. From KK it's a Hot Donuts now glazed. Wish we had Tim Hortons I love me some Tim Bits.
- Gunnybear ™
If it's KK's, then a glazed devils food. If it's Donut King or a supermarket, then plain cinnamon or choc iced, depending on my mood.
- Mellissa
Cruller, always. Unless it's Tim Hortons, then sour cream glazed. And I refuse to eat KK.
- Hookuh Tinypants
Old fashioned or cake with chocolate frosting from Twister Donuts around the corner from our house. (dang, wish I'd stopped there before I came to work.)

There's nothing quite like watching your doughnut go all the way down the conveyor belt at one of the "watch it being made" Krispy Kreme locations, and they hand it right to you seconds after glazing... melts in your mouth.

"There's also the whole transferring and layering technique that I need more practice in. The bottom layer of this one broke in half while I was flipping it out onto a plate, but of course the wonderful thing about cakes - and there are many, I'll admit - is that frosting fixes all. And the frosting on this one is incredible - a lemony cream cheese. This cake was a big, big hit."

FriendFeed's new "Include @replies" feature -- starting April 6, FF is reducing noise by not importing @reply tweets from Twitter feeds (unless the account owner specifies they do want @replies included)
Myrna, A Mitchell, scott willeke and 114 other people liked this
By default, "Include @replies" is off. From now on (starting today, April 6), if you have a twitter feed as one of your services, FriendFeed will NOT import any @replies UNLESS you check this box. To access this feature (only necessary if you DO want to import your @replies), go to http://friendfeed.com/setting... then click on your twitter feed.
- Stephen Mack
Note that it does NOT apply to @mentions in the body of the tweet, those are always included whether or not this box is checked.
- Stephen Mack
Ahhh -- cool!
- Jorge Escobar
Ahhhh Now me understandy.....
- Roberto Bonini
After Twitter implemented this I ended up using Twitter very differently and would send @replies very freely, but didn't want them to go to my 3000 twitter followers or my 3000 FF followers, so I removed my Twitter import to FriendFeed. Now that I can choose to exclude @replies from entering my Friendfeed stream I can bring the Twitter back!
- Kevin Fox
Went to check the box to include them, and apparently... "We could not find the given account". -_-
- Penguin
Penguin, I get the same error. FriendFeed thinks my account is protected, too, and it isn't.
- Akiva
Paul and FF team, this is very cool, thanks for implementing this! (And thanks to Kevin and Ben for pushing Paul to implement.) I really like that this is UNCHECKED by default -- that means from this day forward, no more out of context @replies unless the account owner jumped through a hoop for us to see them.
- Stephen Mack
it's a good thing I already know all the people I'll ever want to meet, huh? no need to discover who my friends are talking to. :( :( :( the fact that this wasn't the case on FF was one of my favorite things about the site. really. One of, anyway.
- Marshall Kirkpatrick
Marshall, I see what you're saying, but 99% of the time it's totally out-of-context and just noise. That's how I feel about it, anyway.
- Stephen Mack
Clarification from Kevin: This ONLY applies to @replies that are at the beginning of the tweet ("official" @replies). It will NOT exclude any random @mentions in the body (or if you use the starting-with-a-period-or-space trick).
- Stephen Mack
Nice! Who said FriendFeed is no longer innovating and the devs are all working on other projects. That's more than Buzz has produced recently.
- Jesse Stay
The great thing about this compared to Twitter is you can still enable @replies. Twitter there is no option.
- Jesse Stay
Akiva and Penguin McSparkles, what is the problem you are seeing? I just checked both of your accounts and they seem to be working fine.
- Paul Buchheit
Jesse, let's not pick on the little guys. They're working really hard to catch up.
- Bruce Lewis
By the way, just to make sure I reference the proper sources and give credit: This hasn't been officially announced on the FF blog or anything yet. The feature was added by Paul B. today. FFers found out about it from Paul's post (http://friendfeed.com/paul...), and the feature was first uncovered in Kevin's post (http://friendfeed.com/kfury...) by Jason Fleming. I stole wording from Brian Daniel Eisenberg.
- Stephen Mack
Interesting counterpoint by Jimminy here: http://friendfeed.com/jimminy... and blog post by Johnny here: http://friendfeed.com/jworthi...
- Stephen Mack
Paul, it seems to be working okay now, but when I initially went to my services to check the box to include @replies, I got the error "We could not find the given account" after clicking to save my changes. After a few tries and a couple minutes wait, however, it did let me save the setting.
- Penguin
Penguin, glad it's working now. Akiva, is it also working for you now?
- Stephen Mack
Thank God, they've updated FF with something!
- Ciaoenrico
Penguin, it was probably due to Twitter server timeouts -- we don't always do a good job of distinguishing between different types of errors.
- Paul Buchheit
This is great - thanks guys!
- Martha
so FriendFeed IS getting dev time. whatever will Scobleizer and TechCrunch crow about now? EDIT: corrected typo/brainfart...i put TechCast and meant TechCrunch. SORRY!

WIN you need to only look at my feed to see why it's necessary: http://friendfeed.com/sofarso... it's throttled with tweets ~ if you go back a page or two, as I'm pretty sure this feature was in place yesterdayish
- sofarsoShawn <Pop-Rocks>
when filtering the feed we get from people we follow, can we filter them back out? I already have too much "non interactive" twitter noise in my feed... guess i should just remove all their twitter, if they dont interact here :D

- Stephen Mack
Not only that I've been waiting for this for more than a year, but also because I see some new developments here for the 1st time in ages... :-)
- Ton Zijp
It looks like you could create an 'imaginary friend' (now a private group) and import someone's public Twitter feed and get all the @replies, regardless of the setting that the user choses on FriendFeed. Yes, you have to work to @stalk someone, but it is possible.
- Ken Gidley
I'm curious if anyone else a) is trying to turn this setting to on and b) finds that the setting won't stick? It saves without an error, but it also remains turned off.
- Bill Mason
Bill, still seeing the issue? Try setting it from a different browser maybe?
- Stephen Mack
from iPhone
Yeah, I'm still seeing it. I've tried it now in 3 different browsers, on both a PC and a Mac. The setting doesn't save.
- Bill Mason
Bill, that's bizarre. It saves for me. What if you create a new twitter feed for testing purposes, does it save if you create it from scratch?
- Stephen Mack
When I created a new account, at first it didn't work. Looking at it, I noticed that the 'updates are protected' box was checked by default even though the test account was not protected, so I unchecked it and it worked after that. So on my main account, I decided to toggle the protected updates box there too. And it magically started working with that box toggled to 'on' even though my account is not really a protected account. So, go figure. At least it works.
- Bill Mason
This would be a good thread for a "dislike" option. :) Count me as one who doesn't like the new feature, either. I'd much rather have had the option of whether or not to see *other* people's @ replies. It *will* reduce conversations on FF that would have been generated from @ replies - especially from folks with large subscriber bases...
- Thomas
Yeah, setting seems backward to me too. I don't care whether others see my @ replies or not, but I do care if I see their @ replies. I now have control over the thing I don't care about and not about the one I do.
- Ghworg
The feature I would like to see is a way to mention FFers in comments by using the @ symbol or some other character but alas that will never happen :(
- BRҰANSAҰS
Thomasserio and Ghworg, I see what you both are saying, but really this mirrors the changes that Twitter made. On Twitter now, you have to be subscribed to BOTH people to see someone's @replies. I think the change that was made here on FriendFeed last week best reflects the way that Twitter works.

My new year's resolution was to read a book a month. I'm happy to say (as March starts tomorrow), that so far I've kept my vow.

I'm strongly considering a Kindle so I can kick my book consumption into high gear.
- Mike Nayyar
Joining Goodreads and connecting with people there was good too. Seeing what other people are reading is a good catalyst to jumpstarting my own consumption.
- Derrick
+1 for goodreads, :)
- chaz2b
That's awesome! I'm not doing nearly as well as you.
- Jim the Blatant
While I was snowbound for 2 weeks I read 15 books. Only 6 were library/borrowed. Amazon will stay in business for a while based on my Kindle purchases. But stuck-in-the house with no car sure proves the value of the Kindle to me.
- m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
After we moved, my resolution was to read three books a month--all from the public library. In fact, I'm doing four books a month...all from the library. I think I'll run out of good choices in about 500 years...if, of course, no new books are published.
- Walt Crawford
Walt, you're my hero. My decision to do this was to related to reducing my TV/Internet intake. I suppose it's worked a little bit, but not as much as I liked.
- Derrick
That's a good goal! I haven't been able to read much for the past year because of Little Miss High Needs, but now that she's able to play by herself for longer periods of time, I'm trying to get back into it.
- Rochelle
Derrick: But I'm semi-retired, so it's no big thing.
- Walt Crawford
Not having a tv has greatly increased my (non-work) book reading close to what it was when I was younger. This makes me very happy. And I like Goodreads, too. Not only do I see others reading, but I get ideas for new things to read based on their reading.
- Katy S
Mine was to read a book of at least 1,000 pages. So far, I'm about 80 pages into "The Count of Monte Cristo." I read slowly, so this will take months, I reckon.
- Greg Schwartz
I always have a book I'm reading...generally in bed before going to sleep....but now I subscribe to Audible too, and find that really satisfying. It makes all those mundane chores, i.e. housework, washing, exercise, so much easier to do while I listen to a book. Just finished another one today, because listening goes a lot faster that actual reading.
- Bonnie Foster
Awesome! In 2007 (much free time on disability), I did a book per week. But that just ended up in me reading every Dirk Pitt novel in a December spree, lol.
- Lo the Baker
for me, a more realistic goal would be twelve books in the year. Since my reading is very bursty, I might not get much recreational reading done until I go on vacation, but then I'll read five books in a week.
- DJF
What's been everybody's favorite book that they've read so far this year?
- Ayşe E.
nonfiction: Kate Bornstein's _Hello Cruel World_, fiction: Nalo Hopkinson's Midnight Robber.
- DJF
Mine would be A Reliable Wife which I got recommended by Derrick or Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman. Both were excellent. For non-fiction so far this year it would be Brain Rules.
- SAM
I love these threads. Thx for the recommendations. :)
- Ayşe E.
My fave this year: The Imp of the Mind (nonfiction, about obsessive thoughts)
- Lo the Baker
I want to read A Reliable Wife or The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks next. I've been reading Let The Great World Spin and don't want it to end. I just finished This Book is Overdue! (non-fiction and about librarians) and I really enjoyed that.
- Derrick
I've been reading short stories, because I have to read (fiction) in fits and bursts: Amy Bloom, Lydia Davis, William Maxwell, Maile Meloy. All different, all v. good.
- Ayşe E.
Ayse - I love short stories! I like to have a collection or two around for those times when I don't have time to get entrenched in a novel. I can read one or two short stories before bed and be very happy.
- Katy S
Me, too, Katy. I love short stories in general, but especially so when I feel like my time is crunched. What have you liked lately? I'm delving more deeply into Maxwell's All the Days and Nights, yummy.
- Ayşe E.
Lately I've been reading some Algernon Blackwood and Arthur Machen - basically old school fantasy and horror.
- Katy S
Katy, you might like Lord Dunsany.
- DJF
DJF - I do!
- Katy S
I love short-form SF, and that's really how I keep up with (some) SF and fantasy authors, since I still take the "Big Three" magazines (none of which are very big any more)...which means I'm also reading, oh, maybe 8-10 short stories, 4-6 novelettes and 1-2 novellas a month.

Depression’s Upside - NYTimes.com - http://www.nytimes.com/2010...

"The persistence of this affliction — and the fact that it seemed to be heritable — posed a serious challenge to Darwin’s new evolutionary theory. If depression was a disorder, then evolution had made a tragic mistake, allowing an illness that impedes reproduction — it leads people to stop having sex and consider suicide — to spread throughout the population. For some unknown reason, the modern human mind is tilted toward sadness and, as we’ve now come to think, needs drugs to rescue itself."

I think that clinical depression is something that has spread through the population only because of the availability of drugs. Thousands of years ago, before people were able to self-medicate, clinical depression would probably be rare.

"Does the despondency help us solve anything? Andrews found a significant correlation between depressed affect and individual performance on the intelligence test, at least once the subjects were distracted from their pain: lower moods were associated with higher scores. “The results were clear,” Andrews says. “Depressed affect made people think better.” The challenge, of course, is...

"In recent decades, psychiatry has come to see rumination as a dangerous mental habit, because it leads people to fixate on their flaws and problems, thus extending their negative moods. ... There is nothing profound about depressive rumination. There is just a recursive loop of woe."
- Clare Dibble
"In recent years, Thomson has cut back on antidepressant prescriptions, because, he says, he now believes that the drugs can sometimes interfere with genuine recovery, making it harder for people to resolve their social dilemmas. “I remember one patient who came in and said she needed to reduce her dosage,” he says. “I asked her if the antidepressants were working, and she said...

Quick note & mistake: They talk about Professor Joe Forgas, who is actually from the university of New South Wales (my university), not South Wales, which isn't really in Australia. Also: Joe's a great lecturer!
