Dude... Filter... All FriendFeed Users = TRACK. Gillmor is going to toss his cookies
- Bwana ☠
Yep - filters are the big story here...

If you're getting dizzy and want to hop off the FriendFeed beta merry-go-round, click on "Filters", enter a name, check "My friends and groups" and click "Save filter". It'll give you a static view you have to refresh manually.

My bad, I thought they were real-time. Not TRACK. False alarm for Gillmor
- Bwana ☠
Would be awesome if you could make a filter and pop it out.
- Jeff
They are working on making them real time.
- Robert Scoble
Bwana, you should make a walkthrough video....it'd be super helpful
- Jason Stephens
In Italy, Current TV is working on something similar able to create a live interaction with the TV
- Giovanni Calia
Yeah, Filters will be real time. Today they just happen to be a nice way to put your feet on something stable if you're feeling nauseous :-)
- Ken Sheppardson
awesome man, I look forward to hearing more about it. Can I use friendfeed solely as my twitter client now? do all my posts go out to twitter? I wish I could grab all the people I follow on twitter and watch them within friendfeed.
- Jason Stephens
By the way, you can just search using any of the existing operators [see http://friendfeed.com/search...] and there's a little link on the results page to turn it into a filter.
- Ken Sheppardson
It seems they've built it that way. With the "CC Twitter" box checked by default. FF just became a [kind of] Twitter client
- Bwana ☠
I thought they would filter out stuff I don't want to see not stuff I do want to see - that's what search is for surely?
- Sally Church
yea but i can't pull in everyone i follow on twitter. if i can do that, it'd be a done deal. can that be done?
- Jason Stephens
When you add friends, you can specify your Twitter friends now Jason

bwana, how? I just did a test with a coworker. He posted to twitter via twhirl. The message was pulled into Friendfeed. I then went on Tweetie and posted a reply to his tweet. That reply was not pulled into friendfeed. This is a critical problem....
- Jason Stephens
Hmm? I'm talking about adding Twitter friends to FriendFeed, not Twitter conversation sync. Dude, you're in 2010! Go here: http://friendfeed.com/setting... and select "Import your Twitter friends".
