Steve Rubel
Friendfeed needs to time-stamp the comments.
Yeah, that is something that I have been thinking about. - Kevin Bondelli
Less thinking more action ;) - Alberto Reyes
A tooltip maybe on hover over the quote graphic. Keep it clean - Andrew Smith
Optional feature - timestamp - not default. - Susan Beebe
great idea! - Sarah Perez
it must be part of the API, since fftogo seems to include a time stamp on the comments - Trent Olson
I'm sure they do store the timestamp, even if it isn't currently displayed. - Mack D. Male
Yeah, it's in the api, all comments & likes are timestamped - Glenn Slaven
I think this is a perfect plan. The only issue I might have is that the time information might take-over the conversations. It might just look more cluttered than FF already is. - Ryne Nelson
It would be useful sometimes. - Morton Fox
concur, very useful to have. Make it a display option. Those who would think it's clutter can turn it off then. - Alexander Falk
It is in the API (I use them in fftogo). I vote that the timestamp should appear as text when you hover over the "thought bubble" to the left. - Benjamin Golub
All comments are time-stamped in AlrertThingy and feedalizr - Stephen B from Alert Thingy
Comments are time stamped in bTT as well. - Francois Bochatay from bTT
and also in twhirl - Marco Kaiser from twhirl
agreed. Timestamps are important - Peter Dawson
What about a comment alert?! How do you follow conversations on ff!? - TommaSorchiotti
Not sure if this will add to the functionality, but should be something they can try out... - Dennis Goedegebuure
Not sure a comment alert is necessary. Comments bring the post up to the top of the timeline, which makes it available for anyone who is currently paying attention to Friendfeed. (Not sure why anyone would want their attention brought to Friendfeed if it isn't already there, that would be a huge productivity drain). - Jason Wehmhoener
Please, please remember that the whole world doesn't run on PDT. I don't want to see timestamps in my FF in gReader and have to always try to guess whether the west coast is 17, 16, or 15 hours behind. If you must display timestamps, please put them in GMT. Setting the timestamps on my FF page/in my FF feed to be correct in my local timezone would be even nicer. - James Polley
yeah ! and a hide fonction for each comment - Jonathan
منم به فارسی تایید می کنم - Kamal
we know which came first... but in n argument the comments can edit. that makes time stamping very important so we know when someone made a change - Noah David Simon
a timeline function in general would be nice, make everything more timeframe friendly - Ruben Llibre
Show times either in GMT or in my own timezone, and just make it a tooltip for the quote balloon or something. Don't want it to look cluttered. - Pat Hawks
just make the time relative from each comment, so I know who said what when in perspective. like 5 minutes later Noah David Simon said. <--this opens up - Noah David Simon
like i said earlier about plurk :) - kosmar
Is i really important to know when every single comment is made? Only the last one would really be useful, could have 'last comment on june 1 at..." right beside the date of the post. - John Duff
If the timestamp is a tooltip, then it isn't really "in the way." Maybe we can have all the timestamps as tooltips, except the most recent comment will have the timestamp printed out below it, like John said. - Rishabh Mishra (p248)
I am so tired of entering an empty room and talking to myself for twenty minutes. lol - Russellreno
A needed feature for sure I agree. I suggested this to the FF feedback room some weeks ago. - Mike Fruchter
Any news? - Amiroo ™
<--- try hover your mouse cursor on that little dialog icon - topo
Sorry it's not more obvious, but if you hover your mouse over the comment icon you will see the time that the comment was made. Thanks for letting us know that it's hard to find! The feedback is much appreciated. - Ross Miller
I believe they are timestamped but this data is not yet displayed.... you're right ! - David Berrebi
other than timestamp I also want to be able to like the comments individually =] - Özgür D. Cyric
This thread shows what happens when nobody reads the comments before theirs - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
Agreed. The entire time... - Zachary Poley from twhirl
Rahsheen, your point is awesome right now :) - Zachary Poley from twhirl
this feed tells me that noone reads the comments before theirs =] =] j/k - Özgür D. Cyric
Yes,sure. The problems is how to realize it? - Motor Industry
Ross Miller:Thanks, my bad lots of greasemonkey junk keep me away to recognize that - Amiroo ™
Loic Le Meur
Can someone give me a definition of what being "passive-aggressive" means, some people tell me I am that, probably bad news.... :)
Passive-aggressive behavior refers to passive, sometimes obstructionist resistance to following authoritative instructions in interpersonal or occupational situations. It can manifest itself as resentment, stubbornness, procrastination, sullenness, or repeated failure to accomplish requested tasks for which one is, often explicitly, responsible. It is a defense mechanism and more often... more... - net from Alert Thingy
Wikipedia a réponse à tout: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki... - Jonathan
actually it's a personality disorder, generally appears when stepping into adolescence. a kinda way to resist doing things and showing expected behavior due to not believing their alleged positive outcomes... As an entrepreneur of web 2.0 age, P-A can be a positive asset somehow. that could mean you deny to act traditional but don't disclose your denial loudly and instead silently go with your way. that was a "bright side" p.o.v :) - Berk D. Demir
My quick & dirty version: a overly, polite waiter that adds extra ingredients to your food because the customer was over-demanding. The waiter never stops being too polite in the dining room but goes creepily, ballistic behind closed doors. Look at the movie "Office Space" for examples:) - Roney Smith
wow what great comments, it is a terrible trait in my experience normally attributed to low self esteem cowards who can't deal with issues directly and enjoy the sport of thinking they're putting something over on their victims - mike "glemak" dunn
some say fear & envy contributes to passive aggressive behavior -- passion patience & persistence cannot replace accountability (or wisdom or maturity) - Scott Moskowitz
I've noticed BigCo workers tend to be more passive aggressive too. Larger work environments encourage people to bite their tongue, but then those people tend to let it out in other ways. In a startup you simply cannot tolerate passive agressive behaviour. Ifyou have a problem you need to be up front and honest about it. I've seen it tear working relationships apart. You have to be up front :) - David Petar Novakovic from twhirl
it's like the lady in the super market that says 'excuuuuse me' - but really means 'get out of my way'......a very nice way of being not so nice...i think it's cultural, in the us people are sometimes polite even if they dont want to be...:) - yat
david: like your comment/take startups vs bigco right on, neither can afford but tends to be more prevalent in bigco & disastrous in startup... - mike "glemak" dunn
basic terms: you're usually quiet (passive) but can be aggressive when you want something or something doesn't go your way. The mid point is usually considered assertive which is where you want to be. (there's personality traits as well, but it was years ago I did the course) - Duncan Riley
I wonder if Gandhi was passive aggressive? I have a friend who is aggressive passive. He gets violently angry about stuff he doesn't really care about. Not kidding. - anna sauce
it's the opposite of how I am at work ;) - bear (aka Mike Taylor)
Well, say you wanted a soda. An agressive person would say, "Go get me a soda." A passive-agressive person would say "I wish I had a soda. If only someone would get me one." - Alex P. from twhirl
it's definitely better than being straight-out aggressive - Wil from MojiPage Bot
People who are passive-aggressive might take so long to get ready for a party they do not wish to attend that the party is nearly over by the time they arrive. - CannonGod from twhirl
kiss my ass Loic. prove your not passive-aggressive. then get down and eat my cornhole. you know? like you licked @QueenOfSpain - Noah David Simon
short explanation: tendancy towards not acting, not being outwardly aggressive, but in fact being aggressive in subtle, often socially acceptable ways. If you still read books: "comment gérer les personnalités difficiles", by Lelord and André. Fascinating and life-changing read. (But you have to read it yourself.) - Stephanie Booth
These are good illustrations: http://www.passiveaggressivenotes.com/ - Rubin Sfadj
how about... just googling it yourself? - Jeremy Toeman
Nice passive-aggressive response, Jeremy. Heh. - Phil G
*technically* it wasn't p-a, but i thought it still... worked. ;) - Jeremy Toeman
Loic's question is p-a per se -- a proactive person would have googled it on the spot. - Rubin Sfadj
you've never struck me as a passive aggressive person! you're pretty direct. - Veronica
I will re ask your question with passive aggresion, "Can you at some point if you can find the time define what passive aggresive means? I mean it dosen't have to be right now, but I really need to know for a post, and I just hope I can get an answer right away if not sooner..but no rush!" - Mike Lewis
amazing - I have the same problem! ANd they just keep scrinking too! Is this some American conspiracy against European entrepreneurs? - net from twhirl
if someone tells you that you are "passive-aggressive" they just don´t have the guts to tell you that you seem aggressive to them - Dieter Schwarz
Telling someone they're p-a is a p-a way of letting them know you don't like them. - Rubin Sfadj
ok - that´s straight to the point! you win! *gg* - Dieter Schwarz
I can't believe the number of comments here! Net, thanks for using Twhirl! - Loic Le Meur from twhirl
Passive-aggressive people (often Enneagram 9) get "angry", but might not know exactly why they are angry for hours-days-weeks, so the "anger" often leaks out in other ways. Some people can be passive-aggressive on purpose, but many simply don't know YET why they are angry. This term greatly confused me until I had both a girlfriend and a boss who were passive-aggressive. In my family, we just got "angry" - plain & simple. - Mitchell Tsai
here is Passive Aggresive Anger Release Machine (in French) http://www.trendsnow.net/trends_... - Pokai
Well, passive agressive happens when you bury anger, and resentment and then take it out without being aware of it on other people who don't necessarially have anything to do with the person your originally mad at or resentfull to or whatever have emotional attachment to. - Stephen
It tends to need directness as a way of solving the anger or resentment that the person has...since directness and even bluntness is better than being passive-agressive to some people since anger can be taken out on people that have nothing to do with the original problem or difficulty. - Stephen

Quel est le comparateur de vols (prix) le plus efficace?
mobissimo.fr et easyvols.fr - Philippe

Benjamin Golub
FF To Go has 716 sessions in it's database; that doesn't necessarily mean we have that many users but it's the best number I've got
wow, I was thinking we were much more - Jonathan
Spread the word! - Benjamin Golub
By the way, Ben, You'll have to explain me some things about FFtogo, how you store sessions... lots of questions actually :) gtalk? - directeur

How Friendfeed will Change PR and Marketing - http://www.micropersuasion.com/2008...
This is great article Steve, I agree FriendFeed is amazing - Lasse
Deleted a comment because of language. - Steve Rubel from fftogo
Steve, I like your action/comment above almost as much as the post. ;) - Kevin C. Tofel
First weeks I wasnt a FF-addict but now , I read less blogs and more pertinents things. - Jonathan
I look forward to reading Steve's follow-up articles. - Chris Rossini
Liked. Steve, you do know how to end an article making us want more... And I empathize with your thoughts. I had to be dragged kicking and screaming into Facebook and similar sites, and I still hate them. FF just seems so much more natural. - Erik Dafforn
FriendFeed's conversational threads are what make it fantastic - Glenn Batuyong
Comments in blogs is always something that has been broken, because you have to either subscribe to just that posts comments to stay up to date or remember to return. FF is getting closer to offerring an aggreggation of my comments for me. - Bankwatch from twhirl
FF fits into my work style better than Twitter as it stays up in a window but out of the way when I'm working. the recommendation aspect cuts down on surfing time and makes me more productive. The aggregation weights the posts and aloows us to see what's important. - Robin Whitson
PR and Marketing will be automated :-) start changing those job diescriptions - John Furrier
Brian Daniel Eisenberg
300 hours of standby time, 3G talk time 5 hours - Rif Kiamil

somebody know if the photo feature has been improve? - Jonathan
Steve Rubel
Big quake hit Greece.
6.5 on richter - Jonathan
Why are there so many earthquakes? - LiquidLag from fftogo
It is really disturbing the number of earthquakes recently. Even here in Northern Nevada we have been having as many as 20+ in a day, in some cases getting above 4.0. http://www.seismo.unr.edu/Catalog... - Nicholas Kreidberg
Turkey is afraid of this too... - Erhan Erdogan
I'm glad it's not just me who is noticing this increase. We're going to break tornado records in the US as well. Not a good year for natural disasters. - Vince DeGeorge
"Google/trends last 12 months" is telling gain. http://friendfeed.com/e... - Erhan Erdogan
@Erhan: But Google trends, all years doesn't ;-) http://www.google.com/trends... - Benedikt Koehler
@benedikt I'm not ready for big dash in trends for all years. Also was world... : ( - Erhan Erdogan
Loic Le Meur
Holy crap that is cool! - Brian Daniel Eisenberg
loic is always cool - Todd Jordan
the wall effect is impressive! - Jonathan
he didn't made it i think... - directeur
PicLens is awesome and any visual app should be hooked into that interface! - ryangraves from twhirl
Totally agree. PicLens gives one of the most immersive experiences for visual web... - Parth Awasthi
here it is for real install PicLens and try it for yourself http://www.tiil.us/seesmic... - Loic Le Meur

To do lists / reminders: What do you use?
Remember the milk: http:///www... Outstanding service. I'm a pro member - Bwana ☠
ditto for remember the milk. GMail integration is awesome as well. - Rob Diana
rememer to check the todo list on the fridge )- - Peter Dawson
Yeah, remember the milk. Great gMail integration - Phil G
I've tried RTM, Things, Evernote, Apple Mail/iCal, Inbox, and a handful of other apps: the only thing I ever check regularly is email and the chicken scratch notes on legal pad. From my own experience, you either are a todo list type person or you're not: there isn't a killer app that makes that leap, at least for me. - Mark Trapp
everything I use for reminders eventually ends up in the fail bin. wish i could get better at this, but i assume it's a mindset I'm missing. - Jeremy Toeman
RTM and Evernote are both good apps based on my evaluation, though I'm with Mark on this one. I use ginkgo biloba. :) - jcunwired
I don't use anything special for reminders either. Just a list in Google Notebook. - Morton Fox
Mark and I are in the same boat. I just don't find myself checking a service much other then my Google services and my iPhone notepad and cal. Thought they seem to work fine for me. - Andrew Dobrow
i use paper and the GTD system. i haven't found a good online on yet that integrates well. i've tried RTM and tadalists and neither really do it for me - Morgan from twhirl
OmniFocus for my GTD system, and plain paper for ad-hock must do tasks - Mark Nassal
@Rob @Bwana @Phil Gmail integration sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks! - Shey, Jamaican of FF
Give jott.com a try... Pretty damn good voice recognition and transcription! - Cem Catikkas
Moleskine works best for me. Go anywhere, no reception needed, doesn't seem rude in a meeting to use unlike phone/pda. - Tac Anderson
I generally use Apple's Mail.app for creating tasks. Then iCal reminds me about them. .Mac sync's my tasks to my other Mac, and iTunes syncs the tasks to my Nano and iPod Touch. Also long as I remember to create the task, then I'll have a hard time forgetting it or missing it. - Paul Grav
RTM - the best task manager..... - Keith Bilous
Jott is pretty cool but I'm not gonna pick up the phone everytime I need to add to my list - Shey, Jamaican of FF
@Tac: Moleskine's are so great, and so damn sexy. - Andrew Dobrow
@mark how is OmniFocus? - Morgan
I don't but I need to.... - Anthony Farrior
Remember the Milk FTW! - Mack D. Male
notepads , lots of them :) - Alemsah Ozturk
RememberTheMilk + Gcal +the RTM FF addon for Gmail - Then I use goosync +RTM WAP to trace cal and tasks on my mobile. i tried others web based and Mac but I keep returning to this combination. If RTM will make a Mail.app +iCal integration it will be perfect. - Naor Mark
Hum... I may seem so yesterday, but I use a single file named "bigfile.txt" that is almost the only thing on my desktop and I read it and edit it using vim :) - directeur
Vitalist is great. iphone interface, Netvibes widget. Simple, based on GTD...via feedalizr - David Jacobs
Agree w others that rabid usage (and lack of) must be genetic. I've used Ta-da list (but seldom checked it) and now rely on a combination of Jott, Google "to do list" gadget, and GCal. - Erik Dafforn
I drank the GTD koolaid and started keeping a notebook in my pocket. I scribble notes in it all day long, and at night, I type those notes into a set of text files on my PC. I backup these text files onto a flash drive. I've considered keeping the text files in Google documents, but haven't done it yet. - ha3rvey (free hugs!)
My Blackberry - Jacob Nahin
A paper mindmap plus Backpack. - Вит Колесник
Things for OS X and a simple list in a notebook - I cross 'em off as they're done. Simple and helps me focus. - Chris Poterala from Alert Thingy
Remember the Milk, 'coz it has Twitter support! - Jansen Lu
@Morgan OmniFocus is one of the best MAC GTD tools-- Things is also very good. I have a list of most of the good ones at my blog http://sfp101.com/?page_id=43 - Mark Nassal
Outlook for the to-do lists, easiset for me to tag and set reminders. Still looking for a really good "random note taking" service. Found one for a nano-second last week, stumbled past it, forgot the address. :) - Robin Cannon from Alert Thingy
I use my brain memory, and paper. - Mohamed J from fftogo
I use my own wiki for this stuff: http://wiki.kirkkittell.com/index... -- kind of using it as a variation of the 'note on the refrigerator' in that it's only text, but I can access it via desktop or BlackBerry. I went the simpler text route after deciding that no amount of reminders was going to replace diligence (or: I hit 'snooze' a lot) - Kirk Kittell
RTM, i use the mobile version with my n95, and the widget in igoogle . perfect combo - Jonathan
Both RTM and a Moleskine. Really would love to use goosync and the mobile stuff on my phone, but my crappy cell provider doesn't let 3rd party apps access the Internet. Anxiously awaiting the end of my contract in the fall so I can get a modern phone and provider. - CJ
Remember The Milk is the clear winner here. Will check them out first - Shey, Jamaican of FF
@CJ Kloote - which phone you have ? goosync is using SyncML protocol which uses built in capabilities of Nokia and SE phones.. so no 3rd party.. all you need is a data account to do the sync - Naor Mark
RTM's blog has a guest post with GTD tips: http://blog.rememberthemilk.com/2008... - Dave Pelland
If just for me, pencil and paper - rewrite list every day to keep current - quicker for fast incoming todos - use iPhone notes app when not with paper list - David Van Vickle
RTM is handy but I just set reminders in google calendar -- works really well to stay on top of things because I always have Gmail open. - Nicholas Kreidberg
Another vote for RTM - really an amazing service. - David Worrell
RTM. I use mRTM (the mobile version) as Opera browser's panel. Quick to load and accessible all the time. - Ravindran Navaneethan
I use outlook, it sync over the air to my WM6 phone (thanks exchange!)... occasionally I use iWantSandy and Jott as a team. - Soulhuntre from twhirl
I use Google Calander. But I'm trying out Chandler http://chandlerproject.org/ - Roberto Bonini
Google notebook or scraps of paper left on the coffee table - Slappy Line
RTM and todotxt - sirishkumar
Great article for using RTM according to GTD practices: http://blog.rememberthemilk.com/2008... - Bill Bittner
@naor - Samsung T610. Not on the goosync supported list last I checked. - CJ
@CJ i tried to look up this phone specs, but didn't find it anywhere, I never believe those "supported" lists - my SET650i wasn't listed either but it works perfectly :) so tend to check it myself. I've noticed that some Samsung models do support SyncML, so check out your user manual.. it just might work for you - Naor Mark
@naor - hmm, ok, I'll have to check it out. - CJ
Currently a combo of Things, iCal and Mail. System-wide tasks on Leopard rules. - John Samuelson
Ta-Da Lists by 37 Signals. Free, has an iPhone-friendly web interface. - Glenn Batuyong
Ok, guess I'll have to take another look at RTM. I didn't realize so many people were using it and loved it... - Garrett Fitzgerald
pocket pad of paper with a 3x5 hipster on top. Slips of paper for quick entry and easy sorting. 3x5s for lists with some categorization. - Ashton
I'm with Mark on this one - tried lots of apps but keep returning to the chicken scratch in my trusty moleskin and bright orange cards for urgent items. - Sally Church
I'd like to use RTM in GMail, but for a few weeks now I'm using Prism to have GMail started as a separated app. Now I have no glue how to get the FF RTM addon being loaded in Prism. Any ideas? - Alexander Ebel
Up till today, I was using RTM in a prism window. The problem I have right now is, we are an Exchange shop at work, so a ton of stuff comes through my email...so having to read the email and then transfer that to RTM just seems a bit much...and since I am looking at using OneNote for my higher level tracking...would like something that can possibly sync RTM and Outlook without having to fork out any money at the moment. - the_IT_factor
You realize the Jott uses human voice recognition. They outsourced it to India. - Jim McCusker
I use Vim + Vim outliner (in a format based one GTD): http://peterstuifzand.nl/gtd-vim... - Peter Stuifzand

The LiveScribe Pen is the coolest gadget I've seen in quite some time: http://qik.com/video/93099
Yeah, it's cool for its intended audience, but I can't imagine any need I'd have for recording audio while writing. - Chrimmus Tad
It looks like an Anoto pen. - Peter
translation looks interesting/promising - americanm
That's one device that came out ahead of its time - can't wait to see more wireless networking features - Jesse Stay from twhirl
fail to see the 'cool' part. Similar products around already, i would believe? - Parth Awasthi from twhirl
This is on my "I want" list, but I can't really see myself buying it. - Sandra Fernandez
LiveScribe probably costs more than I would pay for a pen. - Morton Fox
no.. this pen is really great.. as a meeting tracking device. very slick. peter showed it to me - Andrew Deal
It's the perfect solution for its intended audience, i.e. me, a journalist, or a college student or anyone who needs to take meeting notes on a regular basis...and they've only just begun to explore the possibilities with it, it's Anoto's technology finally reaching fruition for me. http://urltea.com/39ne - Chris Nuttall
Re: Peter & ditto Chris Nuttall, this IS an Anoto pen, plus audio and a tiny screen. I assume they were inspired by what was going on over at Leapfrog with the FLY Pentop Computer (targeted at teens, but with more useful, thoughtful functionality added to Anoto than anything until LiveScribe). 2nd Gen FLY was pretty promising, but LiveScribe is much more mature. - Teel McClanahan III
T-Mobile was selling a product like this back in 2005, all based on dots on special paper. They where selling it as PoD product or sales people on the road, or people that have to give paper to the customer - Rif Kiamil
I'm not sure if it's LiveScribe, but HP showed me one of these pens that uses paper with unique dot patterns on each sheet. It leaves an audit trail of who wrote what when. - Tom Basham
LOGITECH sell something near http://www.logitech.com/index... - Jonathan
Chris is right - I really want one. - Ian Betteridge
I have tried Capturx http://is.gd/pWF - pretty good but the only issue is that they require special paper.. - Amit Agarwal
I have seen more interresting stuff... Maybe because I forgot how to write with a pen! xD - Dieter Schwarz from Alert Thingy
I like the idea, but it's as thick as one of those old kindergarten pencils we used to use. Too awkward for efficient writing. Make it the size of a good fountain pen and we'll talk. - Steve Lowe
I've had this on my wishlist for a little while now. It's a great idea. I don't even know if I really have a need for it, it's just so cool. - J. McConnell
Wow, that made me happier than you can ever know. I have to write everything before I post it online because I flow better that way. That is absolutely perfect for me. As much as I post online, I really hate to type because I'm not very good at it. I actually hired my 12 year old to type for me this summer at $10 an hour. I am SOOOO getting that pen. I've dreamed of that invention coming out and there it is. Thanks Scoble, you're a doll. - Sheree Motiska
the livescribe pen is very cool, useful in meetings & its not really that big - seems easy enough to adjust to using it... - mike "glemak" dunn

Twitterbar is great for Twittering on the DL - Shey, Jamaican of FF
I prefer twitterfox to twitt from firefox - Jonathan
I've had issues with the latest release of twitterfox; still investigating whetehr they caused by my settings or by twitetr itself, or by twitfox - martin english
That was excellent! Thanks - Sanjay Subrahmanyan
Ditto Steve - FF in the address bar would be GREAT! - Charlie Anzman
Shouldn't be too hard to hack the twitbar add on & swap out the twitter api calls for ff api calls...I don't have time right now, but if anyone else does, be sure to post results here. - Trent Olson
Very cool. - Aaron Myers
It works! - Mike Reynolds
Twitterbar is one of the best ways to post to twitter, love it. - Christian Burns

Where do you store all your great blog post ideas?
Mail.app > Notes - Louis Gray
I'm not even going to lie: The sticky notes app on iGoogle is where I store blog post ideas (not sure if they're great, haha). - Eric Florenzano
Google Docs - Kevin Cearns
I build them up whilst listening to my iPod on the train to work in the morning. That's my most inspirational time, then I get into work, start kicking a football around the office and have a coffee and it's gone! - Joe Dawson
Wordpress draft posts - Mark Krynsky
Adobe Buzzword - Kevin Bondelli
Generally on my phone - either notes I've typed or dictation. I then type them up properly on the PC - Colin Walker
notepad++ - Morgan from twhirl
I really like google notebook for this sort of thing - particularly as part of my igoogle page. - Doug Brooks
Upper cortex, location 5 alpha bravo - TranceMist
Remember the Milk - Mack D. Male
OneNote or Flock's web clipboard - Tris Hussey
google docs and lately experimenting with evernote - Dobromir Hadzhiev
Remember the milk - Bwana ☠
on my phone for spur of the moment ideas, googlenotebook for web clips - B.T.
OneNote - I have an entire section of things I want to write about. - Kathy Jacobs
I forget most of them. The rest are on post-its or envelopes on my desk or in blog drafts that I never finished. - Kevin Fox
I do the same as Mark -- and add details as they come to me - Shey, Jamaican of FF
Google Notebook. Easy and convenient, especially with the FireFox extension. - Eddie Awad
Google Notebook - Bill Stevens
scribefire, livewriter, google notebook...via feedalizr - Ro (Lilyhill)
I've also just made a private room with myself as the only member for keeping small reminders. - Kevin Fox
text file on the desktop - Lucretia Pruitt
Great idea Kevin! - Shey, Jamaican of FF
Shey, I actually just user twitter /ff for linkfarming or directly send url to via email to my pvt google groups. All my Blog's are configured to send out a copy of my postiny to this group too. So I have a redunant copy of my blog in forum form too. - Peter Dawson
I use Scrybe, and the Scrybe thoughtpad is pretty good for that. I don't really have to store my ideas as I typically want to make a great blog post before somebody else comes up with the same idea, and it's quite often that somebody does come up with the same idea, but at least people at not sick of the topic when a few bloggers have talked about it. - Rishabh Mishra (p248)
Blog titles plus a few notes are saved as drafts on my wordpress.com blog - Hutch Carpenter
either a new wordpress draft, but almost usually just jotting some notes down on the yellow legal pad that's always on my desk - Paul Stamatiou
In my head, which is why I'm only good for one a day (at best). I'm kidding. Microsoft OneNote is killer for saving these, although I'm using the new Evernote beta more and more. - Kevin C. Tofel
Things - Duncan Riley
I have no great blog post idea. - Erhan Erdogan

Honestly. Post-It notes. - AJ Kohn
Gmail. I email the post idea to myself and put a special (made up) word and keyword(s) in the subject line so I can search them all easily. If I edit them, I reply to myself so all versions are available. I could do all of this in Wordpress but Gmail is in front of me or in my pocket all day. - Luca Belletti
I use Windows Live Writer to manage unpublished posts with ideas and links - Miriam

Comming from the side of the person in the uniform, I'm telling you there's no feeling like the the one you get when you have people like that who care. (tearing up right now) I had a welcome home like that in Jan 2002 and I had never felt more proud in my life! - David Cook
Eureka. There's life for advertising! - Steve Rubel
You can't imagine how this affected me while I was IN the military. It was a special feeling. - Vince DeGeorge
@David I agree. We flew into Atlanta for R&R while deployed to Iraq in 2004, and I was shocked to see the welcome we received. I truly hope they still do this. - Michelle Martinez
I just hope they were real soldiers and not actors..does anyone know? - Luke Harvey-Palmer

Videos capture much more attention - http://www.seesmic.com/video...

Problem is: the content can not be crawled. A step backwards from the semantic web? - Benedikt Koehler
Not if they don't work- won't play inline in IE7 - Brian Sullivan
There are technologies that could automatically read speech from videos, or at least adding a feature to tag your conversation to enable depth-searching. - CannonGod from twhirl
the challenge is the number of people (including me sometimes) who takes a while before they have anything of value to say - I feel like I am too often wasting time because I cant scan and filter for what is valuable to dive deeper into and what should be skipped - its like las vegas for social media - Chris Heuer from Alert Thingy
@Jake True, but they're not very widely used, I guess? This videopost is a fine example. I don't think the future lies in spelling URLs via video ;-) - Benedikt Koehler
TV didn't drive out print. It just sucked up people's time. Parallel w/ video comments? - Michael Markman
BTW Loic is right: Ever tried responding to Seesmic comments in public transport? It certainly does capture more attention ;-) - Benedikt Koehler
As Scoble pointed out a few days ago, adding text comments (like this) adds metadata to a video post. For example, try searching (in Friendfeed) for, say, "adds metadata to a video post." - Tom Landini
a text can be copy and paste everywhere in 1clic without a software. A video is on a platform if the service go down or close the content is lost.. And obviously video cant be crawled easily for the moment ..video is for the moment, text for the ages - Jonathan
@Tom True. But it can trigger some kind of a Matthew effect: video posts with lots of comments have metadata and can be found on the web while video posts that do not get commented - and this will be the majority (Long Tail) - cannot be found and in turn do not get commented on. - Benedikt Koehler
Alexis makes a great case for using video in his (video) post - 100% of the attention, vs. 40% for telephone/audio and 10% for text. Definitely worth a view. - Tom Landini
Some very good points are made below, particularly via making videos search friendly with a little help from your audience and some comments. Think I'll try a comparison of this out. - Dion Hinchcliffe from twhirl
Video has strengths and weaknesses, sure more engaging, but to a smaller audience. Searchability is a challenge, and context when it's embedded also an issue./ - Jeremiah Owyang
Loook... video can be crawled, and IS a step forward in semantic webness just not well at the moment check into MPEG7 - coolblueskies
My challenge with videos is that though they may "capture" more attention, that's largely due to the fact that they *require* more attention. This makes continuous parallel attention a real challenge. http://twurl.nl/5xn7o0 - Clay Newton
U need a video version of Google Image Labeler/ESP Game to semtag - Mark Szpakowski

n95 or n82 which is the best? - Jonathan
Which phone is better for Qik? - Loren Norman from Alert Thingy
Whoa! - Charlie Anzman
Loren: the N95 is better because it works with AT&T's 3G in the USA. Jonathan: if you don't care about 3G, the N82 is a better phone. But, that's a big "but." For me the N95 is better because of that one feature. - Robert Scoble

Poll: "Should we replace the term "xx is following you" by "xx is a FAN of yours" in Seesmic?" http://poll.fm/d0gp/
Nope. Following is better - Keith Teare from Alert Thingy
xx is stalking you - Phil Wolff from Alert Thingy
seems like a majority is in favor of droping "follower" http://answers.polldaddy.com/poll... - Loic Le Meur
I like stalker myself as well. - Cyndy
Following is correct. A counter example, Friend Feed says you "like" something when you might hate it but still think it's worth remembering. Built-in program verbs should be neutral, let humans impose their own meaning. Sometimes (without naming names) you follow people you don't like. Who was it who said keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer? - Dave Winer
"xx is watching you" but I like "xx is following you" - Doug McCaughan from twhirl
+1 I totally agree with Dave Winer, - Jonathan
Dave, it's often attributed incorrectly to Sun Tzu, but the only person I'm sure who ever said it was the fictional Michael Corleone in GF II. - Robert Seidman
How about "Contacts" - that's pretty neutral - Susan Beebe
depends on what sort of community you want. "fan" seems promotional, "follow" seems conversational (to me). - hisherness
Follow sounds right. I chose to follow you but haven't decided I am a fan yet. 'Fan' is too presumptuous. Lesson learned from twitter hehe... - Kamath (नमः)
follow = twitter, fan = pownce, i'd come up with something original - Alberto Escarlate from twhirl
On twitter I follow some accounts because I want to keep up with them, but I am no fan. - Jonathan Leavitt
sometimes I follow without being a fan, and seesmic is video, so what about 'viewers' or 'audience'? :) - ledretch
