Looking through Rose Colored Glasses!! - Paul via Bookmarklet

I doubt that the placement is unintentional. - Helen Hoefele

But will it counter the iPhone or the G1 in terms of an open platform? - Peter Kelley

@Ricardo, you can have that argument, it wasn't mine. - Christopher Galtenberg

Just a clue (I don't know what it is), their guy in charge of Social strategy (yes, Nokia has one of those - a clue in and of itself) was at the Palo Alto Facebook Developers Garage a couple months ago. - Jesse Stay

Good riddance to bad rubbish... - Zee.

I don't think Pownce ever got the traction it needed. - Paul W. Swansen

with awesome press like this http://valleywag.com/tag/leah-... and this http://uncov.com/2007/12/20/po... you wonder what took them so long to die. - Mark Bean

Mmm, makeshift mocha... - Tyson Key

New can... same cat-piss taste :P - Johnny Worthington

Coke Zero > * - Tudor Bosman

Cokesi/Pepsoke, anyone? ;) - Tyson Key

A significant part of Nokia's success stemmed from making sturdy cheap phones. This market is gradually diminishing because of two reasons. People who thought of it as a necessity are now making the move to cellphone as a utility, searching for phones with an encompassing internet and enterprise experience, where Nokia has had no success thus far. (contd.) - Parth Awasthi

I wasn't talking about Android. Nokia bought Symbian and released it as open source. Anyone can write software that will run, natively, on Symbian devices, without needing the hardware manufacturer's permission. That is what open means, and why the iphone can never be more than a toy. No matter how many marketing dollars they spend, it still won't become a good idea to let the hardware manufacturer control the content on the device. Who does Apple think they are? Sony? - Mr. Gunn

I think it is more accurate to say that, with the open-sourcing of Symbian (something they seem to still be working on at Nokia), you can find Symbian on other phones without restriction. With regard to applications, it will depend a lot on the built-in rules for recognition of safe applications, usually involving signed code. Whether you can roll-your own apps and have your own phone install them will depend on the how the phone was set up by its vendor/manufacturer, seems to me. I agree that it is superior to the traditional Apple approach of taxing developers. Not sure why they keep finding this irresistable in Cupertino, although sheer number of iPhone apps suggests its not a problem. - Dennis E. Hamilton via twhirl

Oh, and I love the new real-time view and FF in general by the way :) - Mads

I just installed a MediaRSS plugin for WordPress. We'll soon see if it shows up on my FriendFeed. - Daniel J. Pritchett

It didn't work without some tweaking, but I've got it now: http://friendfeed.com/e/ed5b87... - Daniel J. Pritchett

I think this would require some kind of tool by which you could go into an item from one of your own feeds and edit it manually. Not sure how it could be implemented in a way that makes adding images to one of those items as easy as adding them in the bookmarklet. - Mitch Wagner

Your blog needs to provide Media RSS. Then FriendFeed will embed your media. - Bruce Lewis via fftogo

There's a WP plugin that can do this with a little modification: http://friendfeed.com/e/ed5b87... - Daniel J. Pritchett

Why not just create a room and add the feeds directly? You can then set this room to show in your home feed. - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)

@Tina yes, it's a workaround... But then, if you want to organize external blogs in lists (e.g. by subjects), you'll have to create a separate room for each list. It should be simpler than that. - andrei_c

This has come up several times - a lot of older posts appear to disapper. For people using FriendFeed to, e.g., liveblog conferences (http://friendfeed.com/rooms/sc...), it's pretty disappointing to have old stuff disappear. - Michael Nielsen

@endiaferon Thanks for your help! :) - Klaus Alexander Seistrup

@Pawel - If you subscribe to the RSS feed for a user or a room it will save the direct links, and those will include the discussion. Maybe they could be sent to delicious or something with an RSS to email subscription. - Mike Chelen

Yes, that would be great. - Alejandro S.

"Funny, I first saw your Tweet on FriendFeed. I think you're missing the point of FriendFeed, but that's OK. Out of the 4,600 I'm following on FriendFeed you're on my top 10 list for most interesting. When I see you later in the month we'll talk about why you have FriendFeed wrong. Oh, and FriendFeed will never kill either Twitter or Facebook. If I ever said that I was wrong to say that. I see FF as an add-on to Twitter now." - Robert Scoble

Twitter is updates, fun and crazy, FF is the tool used to update all those applications like itself, and FF is information, updates, interesting, conversations.. - Brendon Wadey

FriendFeed is my Scoble filter :) - Sam Pullara

I'd be up for this, provided the admin can choose to approve the feeds first. - xero

+1000 - Jason Huebel

Johan - I've had it happen where someone deleted all of their comments rendering mine useless. So that's not a good argument. In that case, we should never be able to edit/delete/moderate any comments at all if we can't edit a message. - Mattie Kenny

@Johan - You can do that same thing now with comments. You can also just delete the post and start over if you want, you'll just lose comments. Who cares if you changed it? If you start a flame war and decide to keep the post up, then change the post text, someone in the comments would probably catch on anyway. The rest of the Internet works this way, so I don't see why a FF post should change that. The commentators can chose to delete/edit their comments as well. - xero
