great interview.

great interview. Bret's got it right - ranking algorithms, not filtering is the key to noise processing

LOL...he blames Scoble for pushing my family photos off the page. Robert must have Rhino Skin. =)
- Craig Eddy
No no, I wasn't blaming Scoble :) I was just bringing up one of the main problems we are trying to solve: if one of your subscriptions is 100x more active than your others, how do we make it easier to not "miss" the stuff from your other friends? You should be as active as you want to be, and we will try to make our product work for you no matter how active you and your friends are.

agreed good interview by bret & dan (who i normally consider to have a legacy mindset struggling to grok anything emerging - tainted i know but he used to blindly rip apart podcasting early on when it was clear he never really got the concept /rant ended ;)

Bret, that was a great interview. To be honest I considered removing my sub to Scoble b/c of the activity, but then I realized my page would be pretty empty if I did. So very few of my friends & family use any Web2.0 apps. So my issue isn't too much noise, but not enough buy-in from those I would follow. Any advice on how to overcome that would be most welcome -- pestering them didn't work. =)

@Craig: follow people who do get it.
