If you use the FriendFeed Facebook application make sure you've configured it properly. We are switching to a new method of publishing in the not too distant future. If you see this message at http://apps.facebook.com/friendf... just click on the link to provide the proper permissions. (via http://friendfeed.com/bgolub...)
A little late on the info as I deleted this link last week at I was told I was pushing all of my FF to FB people were not happy.

why do you not post the link comments from friendfeed to the wall? just the links loses 80% of the value.
- Gregor J. Rothfuss
I'm tired the FriendFeed Facebook app. keeps asking me to fix "the problem" so it can post to my wall. I don't want it to post to my wall! Contacts on Facebook and FriendFeed are different types for me. On Facebook it's about being friends in real life, on FriendFeed it is about interests. At least that is how I use FF and FB. My Facebook friends would probably feel I was spamming uninteresting stuff if my FF posts where copied to FB (well, at least if I used FF so intensive as I want to:-))...

Please let us select what to publish on FB from FF? I'd rather have tweets not appear on FB, particularly as I post from Ping.fm to FB and Twitter.
- Kol Tregaskes
New publishing method? I hope nothing will change for those FF users who don't use Facebook. (am I alone here?)

I agree with Gregor ... By not having the comment sent with the link, it's just plain and boring and I'd rather just post directly to Facebook. Unfortunately, however, this would negate the very useful benefit of using the "Share on FriendFeed" bookmarklet.

I don't mind it publishing to my wall, but I don't want it to be my status update. It worked fine before y'all fixed it! (Go ahead. Roll your eyes.) ;)
- Shawn Zehnder Lea
I get that cannot publish message all the time, because I specifically took away its permissions to publish to my wall. If the FF app gave me some sort of control over what it put on my wall, then I'd give it permissions to do so. As it stands, if everything I posted to FF made it to my FB wall, I'd be defriended by 90% of my friends rather quickly.

Yay for new publishing methods! stream.publish FTW!

I don't want to publish my friendfeed updates to facebook, they're too many. I blocked it and i'm always receiving error messages on facebook.
- Oscar
On the same environment, I saw that lite.facebook.com is fast as hell! With proxies, my comments gets directly inputted while FriendFeed takes a couple of seconds, one step at a time. And the message, as Oscar said, is always present if you decide to stop FriendFeed from posting to said service when you have the application on FB. It (script) thinks it wasn't decided, as if it was the...

Mine failed to post the most recent entry to my wall for unknown reasons. (I have it configured to use privatebrlewis@friendfeed rather than my regular brlewis ff account.)

RT @shitmydadsays: "See, you think I give a shit. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of shit? That's why I look interested."
Does that include those of us who mostly just use Facebook's little FriendFeed product? If so, you're welcome, and thank you! It's great.
- Bruce Lewis
Of course it includes FriendFeed users! :)

Just in light of the recent legal news, that's all. I am not trying to throw dirt, but that's a lot of ... clout in danger, that's all.

We should have announced the FriendFeed acquisition this way. I am now ashamed we didn't have a rapping monkey in our announcement.

Amazon door desks? Does someone know what that's about?
- Eric
This is the most awesome acquisition announcement ever. EVER.
- Michael R. Bernstein
OK, this is the greatest announcement I've ever seen. I think this is how people really feel when they get acquired and make a boatload of money. They wanna sing (or rap) about it. I <3 woot!
- Jason Huebel
When Amazon started, Jeff Bezos used a door laid across a couple of sawhorses as his desk. This turned into a tradition. Also a way to show off Amazon being frugal, sort of thing.

In the post Bernard Barry talk about a Processing script to produce graph imagery. Is it possible to have a look at the code of that script?

"But on the five-person board, only two of us -- Alfred Lin, our CFO and COO, and myself -- were completely committed to Zappos's culture. This made it likely that if the economy didn't improve, the board would fire me and hire a new CEO who was concerned only with maximizing profits. The threat was never made overtly, but I could tell that was the direction things were going."

Talk about clueless: "Some board members had always viewed our company culture as a pet project -- "Tony's social experiments," they called it."

RT @BPGlobalPR: Safety is our primary concern. Well, profits, then safety. Oh, no- profits, image, then safety, but still- it's right up there.
RT @shitmydadsays: "Look, we're basically on earth to shit and fuck. So unless your job's to help people shit or fuck, it's not that important, so relax."
can't send you a direct message so commenting instead though my query is irrelevant to the post! how is http://bret.appspot.com/ running is it running on tornado, its appspot so it's on Google App Engine, can we install the tornado directly onto the Google App Engine or a blogging application has to be created first, and are you using Blogger blogging resources for bret.appspot.com?

I wonder if there's a UML spec for this from the Object Management Group…

I hope they implement "foo" and "bar", one day, too :)

Our cats bring in rats and birds into the house as "presents" via the catdoor. My wife and I are debating creative solutions to prevent the cats from getting into the house if they are carrying something. How do other folks deal with the problem? (Before Karen makes me manufacture the multi-million dollar full-body scanner catdoor she described)
I removed the cat door. Now the cats only go in or out of our sliding glass doors, where I can see what they have. I don't let them in when they have a “present”, so almost all the presents get eaten (bones and all).
- Amit Patel
Get a dog. The dog will eat the "presents" and possibly get to the root of the problem by eating the cat :).
- Gary Burd
Have you tried adding something to the cats to make them less effective predators? Bells? Blinking lights? :)
- Private Sanjeev
Hey, the cats are just trying to do their part to support the household. Just because YOU are ungrateful doesn't mean the CATS have a problem. :-) I don't have a cat door... I just have to go to the front or back door when the cat is meowing loudly and continually, so that I can praise her and thank you for bringing us dinner until she is satisfied. Then I can scoop up said "dinner" and dispose of it appropriately.
- Ladybald Heatherbug
hey, very funny. and i used too have the same problem but then i got a bird and so my cat stayed focused on trying to get that bird. only problem for the cat is that the bird is in a cage, therefore the cat goes out quickly and comes back in when shes done, and consentrates on how she could get this one bird; but she never will ;) good luck!!!
