My FriendFeed Stats App using the FriendFeed API! - http://www.friendfeedstats.com
http://www.friendfeedstats.com/bgolub... is mine, and you can set the display type, if you feel fancy you can set your duration by appending duration=5 (which would say the last 5 days) to the url. I am going to open source it soon so you all can see how easy it was - Benjamin Golub
Think FriendFeed wants their URL back? :-) - Louis Gray
very cool... - don loeb
nice little thing to look at, maybe ff can stick this view into the stats view they already have going. - Nathan Eckenrode
very nice - Alex Hammer
sweet! - susan mernit
very cool - yer full of little surprises aren't you :) - Steven Hodson
these apps are coming out faster than I expected - congrats! - Frederic
The tech community has rallied around FF. Wonderful app. - Russellreno
Holy smokes, I'm excited. How long did it take Twitter to get twitterstats.com? This is done in a matter of hours! Wow! - Bwana
Anyone suprised that Twitter is winning on the services list by a mile? http://www.friendfeedstats.com/... - Glenn Slaven
You really capitalize on this stuff, don't you? - Brandon Titus
Really cool app, Ben! Thanks again for all the feedback this past week. - Bret Taylor
Very nice! Good to see someone making cool apps with the newly released FF API. - Scott Jarkoff
It wasn't done in a matter of hours. I actually had access to the API over the weekend. Overall the site only took like a day and half of working "here and there" on it. - Benjamin Golub
Is http://friendfeedstats.com not working for anyone else? Looks like I might have DNS issues? - Benjamin Golub
Looks neat. I'm getting an error message when I search for just my nickname (not my full name) though. - Philipp Lenssen
Ya, it's not a true search, It just takes in a nickname and trys to find that EXACT nickname in the database. So if you type philipp in there it will find you but if you type Philipp Lenssen it won't. I don't want it to be a search, and I won't be making it search for your actual name because many people can have the same actual name - Benjamin Golub
That could be confusing: "Philipp Lenssen" is the name I see on top here, it's the name I see in my account name box, etc. Not to complain, just to give you feedback (and perhaps for all of us to determine good patterns with FF-API usage). - Philipp Lenssen
I agree it could be confusing, but philipp is what you logged in with. I could easily add it in to say, look if only 1 person has that name (case insensitive) and redirect to that user page. But your nickname is meant to be pretty permament. Actually you used to be able to change your nickname on the FF site but they removed that after I asked what happens when someone changes their nickname? Everyone has a UUID too, but that is not a user facing thing. - Benjamin Golub
@philipp ok I implemented a name search too. If you type Philipp Lenssen into the box it will redirect you to your page. I take exactly what you type in there and do a case insensitve lookup for the name if nothing shows up for your nickname. - Benjamin Golub
Thats a fun stats service but more it has enlightened me that Twitter takes up 46% of the usage over all the services Friend Feed keeps track of. More than blog posts or google reader! - MikeonTV
No wonder the FF team first implemented postback for Twitter, it is the most used service. My guess is blogs (wordpress/blogger/etc) will be next. Maybe Pownce too because they have an easy to use api. - Benjamin Golub
Works nice Benjamin! - Philipp Lenssen
