When you edit your comments on FriendFeed, those... - Bret Taylor

This should improve the experience for some of the more "colorful" discussions on FriendFeed :) Thanks to Gary and Casey for implementing this change. - Bret Taylor

Ace!! - Kol Tregaskes

Who the hell needs Google Wave when we have FF! - Travis Koger

lets test again and again :)- - Peter Dawson

I'm watching Peter. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

Nice! In fact, double nice! :) - Andy Bold

Well I just saw Brett's change... right before my eyes! - Travis Koger

Nathan, cool, works well. - Kol Tregaskes

More real-time FTW :) - Ivan Zuzak

cool :) - Nathan Chase

actaully I had two browser windows opened ..but the other one did not get refreshed - Peter Dawson

This is bad...it's kind of addicting to just watch people changing their comments in this thread :) - Tamara

Oh thank you so much, FF devs. I am horrible at reading what I type sometimes and end up with typos. I correct them anyway, but most never saw unless they refreshed. This is awesome! - Haggis (Sean Loyless)

Nice! If only we could the timestamps now also have realtime. Remember the jQuery proposal (http://friendfeed.com/friendf...)? - David Schmidt

David, agree. - Kol Tregaskes

Wow, excellent improvement!! Thanks FriendFeed :) - Susan Beebe from BuddyFeed

Sitting here, watching Nathan going editing mad ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

I love this god damned website - Mark

seems ok as long as you slow down ;) - Nathan Chase

:-) - Kol Tregaskes

Great work!! - Edwin Khodabakchian

Ok here's a question - what will BackType pick up as my final comment here? if i can continue to edit it? probably just whatever it is when it happens to hit the comment - Nathan Chase

That's the kind of attention to detail that makes FriendFeed so good - thanks!!!!!! - Jim Connolly

OK. can't seem to break it now :) - Nathan Chase

Huzzah! - Nathan Chase

@Nathan, FF devs do everything in Real-Time! - Travis Koger

hah i bet - Nathan Chase

Will the desktop notifier show edited comments or continue to post the initial comment only? - Kol Tregaskes

good question, Kol - Nathan Chase

Will edits on the title update in real-time too or just comments? - Kol Tregaskes

Nathan, that seemed fast. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

And will deleted comments/entries update in real-time? - Kol Tregaskes

I hope not. How else can we keep up with Cristo™? - Akiva Moskovitz

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEs! - Micah Wittman

It's gone Mad on email notifications though. I am seeing the same comments multiple times via email. - Andy Bold from email

David Schmidt, Jammy wrote a user script to make timestamps live update: http://friendfeed.com/jammyle... - Micah Wittman

Thx Micah, but unfortunately I use Chrome. So, no extensions yet. At least not with the stable version. - David Schmidt from email

@Nathan: Unfortunately, we capture every edit of your comment (can look at that as a + or -, but we'll likely address it in the future) - Christopher Golda

which makes it pretty much like google wave. - Rohit

Tis true, David. I'm as eager as anyone for Chrome to catch up. - Micah Wittman

nice - Kevin Whalen

Thank goodness because I'm always hitting Post before proofreading, THEN finding errors. :P - CAJ, somewhere else

For (optional) training, there should be a wait-to-publish penalty if corrections occur too frequently. - τorƍue

@David: this link could help: http://friendfeed.com/chromiu... in Chrome use it along with Jammy's script here: http://userscripts.org/scripts... I'm a fan ;D - Bicentennial (Franc)

THis is a really neat thing to watch. I saw it happen yesterday in one of my posts. - Rick Cogley

Indeed, who needs Google Wave now? ;) Great addition. I do hope that comment field changes become versioned (at least optionally) with history of changes. I do like the ability to clarify my wording, but I also like the permanence of immutable comments (like with regular blog commenting, for example). - Meryn Stol

Nice fix #FriendFeedTeam - Mitch

Woot! I'm surprised this wasn't done at the introduction of real-time. - Tanath

Somebody edit something. Edit: More, I missed it :P. - Tanath

Nice one... - AJ Batac

There we go! :D Cool. - Tanath

much appreciated - Dobromir Hadzhiev

Thanks FF team it's Great - Nimaa

I have a problem with FF comments. Why are they not nested. I can not coment on a comment. I need it very much. - Nitin Nanivadekar

nested comments +1 - 0M0M from email

Very cool. You're spoiling us Bret :) - Charlie Anzman

Please Please Please, can you do the groups listing updates also so you don't have to refresh the screen to see the last time one of the groups was updated? - Travis Koger

Yay - Tyson Key

yay nay just kidding yay - Vincent van Wylick

VERY NICE UPDATE! We also need this for deleted comments. - Alp

Re: BackType - I've noticed that they'll recrawl your comment if you modify it, within a few hours, after some testing. Not sure if it always happens though, but I've seen at least 4 reappear after I've modified them. - Tyson Key
