Derrick is really cute in person, and he's funny as hell. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

Nakachi is the bringer of words that brighten every day. - LogEx

I like that one, Logical Extremes. Again, the ability to like individual comments or posts would be good here. On topic, Ophelia, who is not that active on friendfeed but filters here anyway, is very good with words. Her updates both entertain and inspire me. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

Monique posts something that makes me smile or chuckle just about every day she's active - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

FFing Enigma (aka Tina) is articulate, witty, and passionate. - Glen Campbell

RAPatton might be the best dad i've ever read about (my dad excluded of course) - Steve C

I still love Anika's avatar. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

I have to pick one? - Ha3rvey (Free hugs!)

Nope. You can do it as many times as you like. For instance, I like how ha3rvey is funny and just a genuinely nice guy. :) - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

Akiva's great pictures of Babby Audrey and Rochelle always make me smile (technically that was just about one person... sorta...) :D - Her Lindsay-ness

"i18n" is short for "internationalization", i+<18 letters>+n. By that schema, i80and saved us all a lot of screen real estate. - DGentry

What can I say about one person? Jason Toney's posts always elicit wonder and insight. RAPatton, I feel like is just full of awesome with his insight and approach to things. Haggis is a barrel of laughs. Steven Perez (when he's not fighting with conservatives) has spawned his own catchphrase. Nicholas K. is just about the most awesome single dad I've seen in a long time. Tina and... more... - Derrick

Victor Ganata is extremely intelligent, empathetic and articulate. He has always been exceptional in understanding others whether he agrees or disagrees with an opinion, and he always treats everyone with the utmost of respect. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo

Jonathan Hardesty is funny and wants to have my babies. - Haggis (Sean Loyless)

I wish I could call everyone out. If we interact here on FF, take it on faith that I pretty much love you. - Derrick

You know me, I can't ever pick one person so I will simply say that every single person I subscribe to is smart, interesting, funny and make being on this crazy little site damn entertaining. Those that I've been lucky enough to get to know beyond the site prove to me every day that everyone who has ever said only weirdos and stalkers are online are just smoking crack. - ♥patricia♥

I'm with you there, Derrick. There are so many people here who are funny, smart, interesting, entertaining, etc. There are even a couple who make me blush. NOT NAMING ANY NAMES. And then there's that cilantro dude. - Ha3rvey (Free hugs!)

Steven Perez is a funny guy, and can cheer me up when I'm down. - Chris, Taskerrific Guy

My first public skype call was with Tad, Glen and the Amber - a lovely conversation with great people. Tad was bold enough to live stream his workstation software install expedition and is a friend to all; Glen is chalk full of incisive wit and has an easy going conversational style; and the Amber was open enough to admit she's shy but worked up the courage to get on the call anyway. Like I said, great people, and quite representative of all the good people in the land of friendfeed. - Micah Wittman

Derrick tells the truth! There's so many awesome people I can't choose just one. - Rodfather

Anika Malone is as straight a shooter as there ever has been She will always tell you the truth about what she thinks. I find that to be a quality many people could use more of, and I respect her, and love her for it. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo

I can't believe that there are people I'm not subbed too. - Derrick

Shevonne is a hottie, and not because she is nice to look at. - Amber, Random Time Lord

Damn, Amber. LOL - Derrick

I love how Amber unabashedly states things. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

I wrote in my 25 things that one of my laments in life is finding a woman who challenges me mentally. Tina does just that. With aplomb. There have been countless times that I was sure of myself and she will make a comment that causes me to completely rethink the issue entirely. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo

Louis Gray got me to think about just being myself and not allowing the tech heavy side of FF to intimidate me. - Derrick

Michael W May and RAPatton have the best tastes in music I've ever seen in my life, I applaud and covet their music collection. - Haggis (Sean Loyless)

Derrick and Mona and Akiva and Rochelle and Jandy and many of you make me laugh every day. - Louis Gray

Derrick is the shizzle, treated me like an old friend. That's one of 500 nice things I have to say about other Friendfeeders. - Eric @ CS Techcast

Rachel Fox takes outstanding pictures. - Louis Gray

My little pea... fierce as a woozle, indeed! So quiet and unassuming... But so poignant at exactly the right moment. The exactly right phrase to every situation. If she can' brighten your mood, nobody else can, either. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo

Johnny is just plain awesome - Amber, Random Time Lord

DYSP! Steven and I disagree here and there but in the end I absolutely admire his sense of humor and his passion. A truly A-Lister here on Friendfeed. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo

Alex Scoble, Cristo, Chris White and Thomas Hawk vigorously defend their views, but never take it (or make it) personal. - Kevin Fox

Whew... Only 642 more to go... - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo

I love all of you here making my day brighter :) - BeeLing

Thomas Hawk makes me want to be a better photographer. - Ha3rvey (Free hugs!)

Derrick and Monique would be my road dawgs if we lived in the same city - Amber, Random Time Lord

Robert Scoble is on a mission to close down every other social network. - Louis Gray

Tad is fun to chat with, even during the awkward moments - Amber, Random Time Lord

I love the fact that Rochelle always likes the same stuff I like. And that Akiva and I both grew up in southeast Texas. - Glen Campbell

I think, most of all, Derrick has redefined what it means to be yourself. I have had the distinct honor of meeting him and what you see here is Derrick. He shares his joys with us, which is easy, but he also shares his pain with us. I must say that I am jealous of his ability to be open, and I admire him immensely. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo

I love everyone who gives me a reason to drop my pants... that and Josh Haley. - Johnny Worthington

I love johnny dropping his pants....o_O - WorldofHiglet

Pea has a lovely voice and makes days better. - Amber, Random Time Lord

Bow to Joe Pierce and his movie prowess. - Amber, Random Time Lord

*drops pants* - Johnny Worthington

edythe, Morton, and Kol for liking so much, they allow everyone to notice each other. - Rodfather

I can't thank April Russo enough for all the help she has given me here at Friend Feed. She is awesome in my book. - Brent - Long Live Rock

I'd like to know how it Is I'm seem to be commenting right around the time Johnny is droppin' Pants? - Brent - Long Live Rock

Way too many good things to say about way too many people - I don't want to leave the island - Marco(aureliusmaximus)

Anna and Rodfather are great for liking the same random crap I do. - Amber, Random Time Lord

James (Tsali) you win for putting up with me all this time. Rah for being Rah. Anika for cutting to the quick in a conversation. And etc... you know you rock if I follow you. - Amber, Random Time Lord

I guess what I am saying is there are roughly a squillion people on Frienfeed of whom I am in awe and also whom I have the most respect. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo

i like jim janotti. he's cool. - Trish Haley

i dig vijay and his love of all things japanese is fun. - Trish Haley

johnny worthington and his family are wicked beautiful. - Trish Haley

So are the Haleys! - Johnny Worthington

rochelle and akiva are nice in person and on FF... - Trish Haley

i would trust pea and trish r to babysit zoe. (that's saying a lot) - Trish Haley

aww. I would love to babysit Zoe! That means a lot, thank you. - ♥patricia♥

You are all awesome, but bonus props to Tina (aka) for consistently being the voice of reason in every conversation, to Derrick for being Derrick, Jandy for keeping it real, and Chris Baskind for bringing the issues, Kol Tregastes for non-stop cool stuff...man, I'm realizing I could go on...what an amazing community :-D - Louis Simoneau

Mattie Kenny is the Dulcinea to my Don Quixote. - Steven Perez

3 of you are awesome for donating to the cause of FFundercats recently. - Josh Haley

i like the conversations with katie about books. i like holly because she's a librarian and helped me with a geek problem. shevonne is down to earth and makes me want to buy boots. - Trish Haley

Holly is sweet and nice. - Steven Perez

WorldofHiglet is the Slayer. What else need be said? - Steven Perez

Josh Haley RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLES!!! - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)

Actually, many of the people in this thread are in my "FF Favorites" list - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)

Every time something mildly bad happens I think to myself "DAMN YOU STEVEN PEREZ!" (hey, I think that's something nice to say about him ;) - Alejandro

darren heydon is good for warm fuzzies. - Trish Haley

I can't pick out one specific person. I can name a few names, but there's a specific reason why I am subscribed to every person I am subscribed to. Jandy and Lindsey all kinds of rock, fellow geek chic - so they have to. :P Johnny keeps me cracking up. Zee is my boy for sure, we'd make a ton of trouble if we lived near each other. Monique is straight up, which is win. I can't keep naming people...it would...take up way too much time. I am sure I will though. - Candace

anika converted me to munchos... yum! - Trish Haley

joey is charming. Helen is real. Penguin is adorable. - Laura Norvig

Anika has wonderful, curious kids. - John E. Bredehoft

Outsanity is one funny motherfucker -

Parth has a wonderful soul. Abby makes me giggle. Carlos and Cee Bee hotties who post some interesting material. Laura Botts and Jim's banter gives me happy feelings all day. Everyone I'm subbed to rocks. That's why I'm subbed to them. - Anika

Robert Scoble was the first person I heard mention FriendFeed. - Ha3rvey (Free hugs!)

High-five to Leather Donut for bringing us some tits and ass *thumbs up* -

oh, it would be so hard to list them all. FF is full of lots of interesting, hilarious, entertaining, and just outstanding individuals.that I look forward to interacting with, many of whom have already been mentioned. yes, even that cilantro lover ;) There's also a fantastic bunch of librarians who hang out here and make me proud to call myself a librarian. yeah, we kinda rule. :) - holly

Holly is right. I *adore* my collection of librarians here. - Anika

Michael W. May for his taste in music, Abby Martin for her exceptional good taste in movies (and being a great mother), Håkan and Rutger for their photos and Robert Scoble for the geek stuff. And Esther for being both sweet and smart. But all of the people I sub to are people that brighten my day! - Baard @ Pixum

MWM and RAP and Haggis for the music mindshare, Tad and Steven Perez and Josh Haley and Worthington for cracking me the HELL up, Derrick for being Derrick so awesomely, Anika and Krynsky and Amani and other LA peeps for helping me learn the city, Abby and Joe Pierce and Logical Extremes and others for the fab movie convos, Louis Gray for apparently paying more attention to me than I... more... - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

I'm just really happy to have a great internet family. :) That's what makes FRIENDFeed so awesome. - Internet's Tad

to all ppl i follow, thankyou for sharing with me too, :) - chaz2b

I feel me some Abby Martin especially b/c of her passion for sports and movies ... Jandy for not seeing me stalk her when she was drunk posting at the show ... Shey for being the first cool Canadian I have ever met ... Mona for laughing at me when i asked for advice (and then giving me good advice) ... Anika for opening up her home ... Shevonne for being a fly girl with some fire ... I'll continue in a bit - Amani

I´ll add some love for Derrick as well b/c he was the first friendfeeder to take me under his wing and show me the ropes here. BUT there has since become a handful or two more that define my good friendfeed experience. Intelligence, humour and warmth is abundant amongst you all, so thanks. - Thomas Bøhm

Amani, were you for serious there? - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

Mona is incredibly thoughtful and considerate of others, not to mention AWESOME!! - Rachel Lea Fox

Agree with Holly and Anika - my librarian peeps here are amazing. And there's so many of us! - Laura Norvig

Yolanda always makes me smile. MWM and Tina are always helpful, caring, and knowledgeable. Anika is just awesome, especially her smile. Steven's singing is great. Outsanity & Tad always make me laugh (MVB often, too). Alex & Chris B. make me think. Derrick makes me feel. Jemm & Nia provide so many late night smiles. I appreciate Katie for getting me reading more, and Lindsay for getting... more... - Alix Whitmire

Jandy, I will never tell ... - Amani

Amani o_O - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

thanks for letting me hang out with you Friendfeeders(all of you) it's an honor and lots of fun! - Dobromir Hadzhiev

Steve C. always makes me laugh, ALWAYS. plus everyone else mentioned here is truly awesome as well :) - Kelly

Sorry, I can't say anything at the moment because I'm still enjoying everyone's warmth from Jandy's group hug - Mark Krynsky

It's hard to pick anyone out because my total FF is made up of so many brilliant people: funny, witty, acerbic, insightful, mind-blowing, thrusting, truth-seekers, provocative, timelords (okay, there might only be one of them...). I love the tech, the LOLs (and the LOLcats), the debates, the discussions, the shared problems, the glimpses into others' lives....And Monique, you have started one of my favourite threads so special props to you. - WorldofHiglet

Monique is a clever woman to kick off such a good thread - RAPatton

Josh and Trish and Tina and Yolanda and Derrick and DYSP Steven make me smile and laugh when I need it. Johnny Worthington always hears when I post an "OMG help me!" kind of thing, and he usually responds with the most absurd and sweet message. Also, he has haiku battles with me, which is all kinds of WIN. Mark W and Fierce Lindsay make me smile, and Mark VandenBerg makes me LOL. And there are so many other sweet and funny and clever people who fill my day here on FriendFeed... thank you to everyone! - Ladybug Heather

AKA Tina is really good at putting up with my silly e-crish. - teh Dork Knight

I love the wit of many but must say MVB can make me spit drinks at the glance of his posts. - Janet

I don't even know where to begin. There are so many people who I love for different reasons. Hmmm..My LAers (Derrick, Amani, Derrick, Anika, Monique, Edythe) because they are always cooler than cool. My New Yorkers (Mona and Cee Bee) because they bring the versatility. My mothers (Abby, Rochelle, Jen, Katie) because they always remind me how great is it to be a mom. RAPatton because... more... - Shevonne

That's OK, Shevonne. I'm sure it will come to you. :D - Steven Perez from IM

You see....Steven Perez because he's funny as hell, and then there is Yolanda cause she is one of the sweetest EVER. Ugghhh too many. This is like giving an acceptance speech. =D - Shevonne

Not me! I was talking about Mike Nayyar. He's so lonely in his dumpster. :D - Steven Perez from IM

I love all of you! - joey

I enjoy everyone, but like Thomas Hawk's photos and philosophies the most, and learn more from Louis Gray than anyone else. - jcunwired

Returning the love to Amani and Abby -- you guys are two of the most honest and kindest souls on FF. Others: RAPatton probably doesn't have a single mean bone in him (ok, poor choice of words there), I could watch Dobromir's feed all day long, Shevonne is a ray of FF sunshine, Akiva is just flat out funny - Shey, Jamaican of FF

There are so many people here that make being here worthwhile that I cannot single out just one. You guys all rock in your own special ways. - Alex Scoble

I LOVE ROBERT SCOBLE! ~ just not in that way. Not that there's anything wrong with that. - sofarsoShawn

Awww thanks Shey! My favorite Jamaican. There is Pea, my fellow DCer who is one of the most genuine peeps up in here! - Shevonne

I love interacting with all the smart, funny FFolks on here! Too many to name, but among my favorites are: Lindsey (the Fierce), Rochelle/Akiva/Audrey, Derrick, Ladybug and Scott, Jim J, RAPatton, Tina (the Enigmatic)... You all rock my world! - Laura B needin' waders

ceebee and RAPatton post the most interesting stuff. and even if he wasn't my boo, i'd still be all up in JT's feed for his pop culture and politics mix. love their stuff - tiffany

M F has a great eye for great eye candy. - Mark H

there are many friendfeeders i feel particularly warmly to because something of their inner self is always coming out: Michael W. May (who has always been at the top of the list), Morton Fox, Anika/Faboo Mama, Yolanda, rap, Cecily, Tad, Akiva, Rochelle, Lindsey, Lindsay D., Beeling, Rodfather, Ginger Makela, Mark Trapp, Ceebee, Shevonne, Abby Martin, Jandy, Zach Landes, Nathan Rein,... more... - edythe

The community / user base of friendfeed is one of the biggest reasons that these days, I'm spending more time on friendfeed versus twitter. I love you all, even the people that annoy me from time to time. - Jeremy

and even yuvi, despite the fact that he used to call me Old Woman. :) and Donna Mugavero and Joanmarie and Michelle Martinez... and Silpol (now A.T.) and oh my gosh PARTH!!!! :) - edythe

and oh my gosh Shey and his jaw-droppingly lovely wife Jasmin... i like Robert Scoble, too, because he always seems upfront to me and never mean. - edythe

Additions - Cee Bee for highest quality posts consistently, Ebrahimi for pictures and translating squiggly for me, Iain for celebrity without celebrity tude, Jessie and Soup most socially conscious posts, Tina for being FF spirit leader, Lindsey online 24hours day, Anne and Jim for getting me here. :) - Steve C

I 'like' Tyson Key! And a bow toward Trish Haley, thanks for making me blush. Speaking of Haleys, Trish, Josh, and Morgan have all become favorites of mine. MVB makes me laugh like a fool, as does relative newbie Valley... he is one funny dude! Gosh, all these names are coming to mind! I'll probably have to comment more later. But for this go-round I will close by saying... if Carmen ever stops posting those daily mug shots, I'm going offline! - Jim Hearts FF

Oh, and to Monique who I guess I am not subsribed to... you completely win for putting up this post. What an excellent, excellent gift to the community! - Jim Hearts FF

Mona has gorgeous legs! :) - Beau "Slick Foot" Liening

I gotta' send some love out to the original band of hooligans who got me hooked on FF: edythe, RAP, Brandon, MWM, Louis Gray & Robert Scoble. You guys filled my world with gobs of geekiness and great interaction on SO MANY different levels. Thanks for making my addiction to FF possible. Of course, now there are so many, many, many others who help to keep me here. I can't even begin to name you all. - Lisa L. Seifert

PS: Thanks for putting up with my Twitter-heavy stream while I'm in school for this year. Eventually, I'll have time to interact more again. xoxo - Lisa L. Seifert

Alix is a wonderful caring wife who tolerates me and my annoying sleeping/eating/battlestar watching habits. I is lucky. - Shawn Whitmire

I love Akiva for bringing the comedy and the pain. I love Derrick for being as real in the OSH parking lot as he is on FF. I love Monique for being the Pied Piper of the interwebz and helping me recover my sanity. I love James for being so gently poetic. I love Rahsheen for the soft porn videos he always takes in bed. I love Johnny Worthington for being such a cuddle muffin of hair and vulgarity. I love Steven Perez for being a quicker wit than me and nicer than me all at once. - nakachi

I love Kaia for the name Baronnes Von Cut A Bitch. I love Robin (bcultural) for the science and the nation building. I love Logical Extremes and Rodfather for their quiet affirmations that never go unnoticed. I love Helen for the virtual daps she gives me whether I'm flying or firing. I love Anna Haro for all the little hearts she sends my way <3 to you, too, honey girl. - nakachi

It would take too long for me to put all my 328 subscriptions in here! If I'm following you, rest assured that you and your content matter to me. :) - Laura B needin' waders

I love Rochelle 'cause momminess becomes her. And I love YOU! - nakachi

Nakachi's Facebook status updates blow my mind - Rodfather

I love this thread. We need an effing FF CONVENTION. - Derrick

This past week has not been a very good one for me and I might have lost it completely if it hadn't been for Johnny, Steven and Derrick for all dropping their pants for me. I love that there are people on here, that I have never met, that care enough to make me laugh when I am feeling way crappy. <3 And of course there are more, just giving props to those that made me feel better this week :) MWAH! - Penny

Nice Thought Monique - Two thumbs up. - Brent - Long Live Rock

Also, Nia for her beautiful photos and Mo for making me laugh too :) - Penny

I'm ready for more. I love Nia for her kindness and her pictures. I love me some g.warbucks 'cause she's brilliant AND pretty to look at. I love tiffany for sharing the good, the bad and the tipsy. I love Chris Weige for keeping art on my mind. I love that the people who subscribe to me give a damn about what I have to say enough to take the time to read me. I'm grateful. - nakachi from fftogo

I had no idea when I started this thread that it would blow up like this. I think this is a clear example of the value of friendfeed: the relationships we build. Sure, we have differing interests, politics, social situations and opinons, but at the end of the day, what we come here for are the people. No one exists in a vacuum, and if they did, they probably wouldn't have a friendfeed... more... - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

Shut up, bitch. - Derrick

Just playin'. :) - Derrick

Best two comments ever. - Akiva Moskovitz

It is hard to pick a single person but as stated...you all bring me much needed laughter. I especially LOVE the ladies room girls - you bring the essence of love. Thank you so much. - Janet

Personally, I think Akiva Moskovitz rocks. He's one of the main reasons why I use FriendFeed. If it weren't for him, I probably wouldn't even be here. - Akiva Moskovitz

Yeah, probably not. - Christopher Harley

Can I just say I love you all?? - Katie: Witch Of The West

Monique is all kinds of sexy. From all shy and flirty to 'oh my!' and dirty! Me likes the Mo'! - Morgan Haley

Kaia is the bee's knees because she changes her name to the funniest stuff. - Ms. G.Warbucks IYN

Monique rocks because she sings off-key in supermarkets and doesn't give a damn. (She will understand this.) :) - Ms. G.Warbucks IYN

That was a fun night. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

not to sound too much like a Mutual Admiration Society, but edythe's feed was what got me hooked on this place. :-D - Karim

Ha, there are too many awesome people here to list and compliment individually; but Denton Gentry, Kevin Johnson, and Morton Fox are all awesome and extremely skilled techies! - i80and

The FF founders and employees rock pretty hard too thanks Paul, Bret, Jim, Anna etc - Steve C

browneyes - otsunegi

Lindsay D. and Kol Tregaskes are kind and respectful even when disagreeing with someone. Civility like that deserves a mention because it is not often the norm in the online world. - Jim Hearts FF

Penny for her personality and her self portraits which are awesome and so real!<3 Dobromir, Richard and Michael who always wishes good morning ^^. Manuela, because of her sense of style what becomes to art, also a very lovely person! Nakachi, Girl, you rock my world! Stay as you are - you are wonderful! L4S who is so much fun and amazing person :) Will, cause of his kindness and cause... more... - Nia

Everybody already mentioned in this thread, plus Meryn and Joelle for being really smart and inquisitive about some of things I find particularly interesting, too. Or at least the way they discuss them. Not that I don't think that way about the rest of you, just no one had mentioned them yet. - ɐ ɯıʞ sıɹɥɔ

Jim, yeah there's no need to be bitchy while disagreeing. Get your point over but don't be nasty about it. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

Bumping this, I hope. Loved this thread! - Laura B needin' waders

I think Josh Haley has a very smart and charismatic older brother. No, not that one...the other one... - Morgan Haley

*bump* - Laura B needin' waders

Laura Botts cracks my shit up. I'm still trying to figure out what her obsession with grits is. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

This thread was the business. *stirs grits* - Derrick

Mo, she's a Suthehn Gul. - Derrick

IIRC, it's all Barry's fault. - Laura B needin' waders

Oh, and Ha3rvey's post today made me think of this thread. http://friendfeed.com/ha3rvey... - Laura B needin' waders

Mo Kargas for his awesomeness. (I hope that by honoring great killer robots my death shall be quick and painless once they take over the world) - Jemm

i80and for his Linux postings, FFing Enigma for roller derbying, Mo Kargas because... the giant robot intimidates me. - DGentry

echostreamer has solid integrity and calls me on my sh!t - highly appreciated - William Harryman

How did I miss thread? It needs a comeback. Thank you LB for the bump. If you think I might know who you are, the odds are high I love you and thank you for being around (even if you have moved on, in which case you won't see this, but it is important to mention nonetheless) and thank you for letting me into your lives a little bit *hugs* - Michael W. May

MWM, this was one of the best FF threads I've ever seen. Sometimes it just needs to reappear. :) #complimentSunday - Laura B needin' waders

I didn't see this the first time round either (but it looks like I was in NYC when this was happening). I have friends who I knew before FF for whom friendfeed has allowed me to know better and there are folks like RAP, edythe, and MwM whose posting and conversation have enriched my life and ignited my imagination. Thanks kids. And, of course, I love Sneezy but FF had little to do with that. - Jason Toney

I really admire Kol Tregaskes, he's always informative and gets involved quite a bit with almost everything. Quite the most selfless individual I ever came across on the net :) ... Also Holden Page impresses me everyday because he's a younger individual with tons of interest in several subjects that most older users usually get into, he shows he's not afraid to learn and keep his... more... - Tim Tunnicliff

I've met a lot of great people here on FF (I won't single anyone out). This is a diverse community that has brought some great conversations that simply could not have been done with a little blue bird and whale. - manielse (Mark Nielsen)

Holly Rae is the biggest FF'in promoter within a hundred mile radius of my chair. :) - Laura (hear me raura?)

I can't really say much about anyone specific, other than ya'll are the greatest and have helped amuse me through some very hard times over the past year or so, and a special thanks with much love goes out to Amber, the Random Time Lord for introducing me to FF and for putting up with me for this long. - Tsali, The Native of FF

I totally like Louis Gray - Mike Fruchter - RAPatton - Worthington - CS Techcast - and tons of other people - thanks for making my use of FF enjoyable. - Dan Morrill AKA Techwag

Gosh! Thank you very much, Tim! - Kol Tregaskes

You're very welcome my friend :+) TIM J. TUNNICLIFF - Tim Tunnicliff from email

Tim is way too nice to me, thanks bro :D - Holden Page

It's well deserved bro and you're very welcome :+) TIM J. TUNNICLIFF http://timtunnicliff.magntize.com If you have a Yahoo/MSN messenger, feel free to add me at TJT2003 [at] msn .com or GTalk at TJT2003 [at] gmail .com - Tim Tunnicliff from email

Holly Rae because she is such an awesome edugeek - always sharing and encouraging others to think. And, no one can beat her flapper Halloween costume! - Shea from BuddyFeed

Yeah, that costume was the business. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

I enjoy my time "in" here with most of my FF friends - VAL D.

Sheesh! Thanks @laurapresently and @shea for saying nice things about me. How the hell (excuse the french) did I miss that!!! Thanks Monique for starting the thread and mentioning 'the business' - Holly Rae, FFer

My turn... Laura (hear my raura) for putting up with me talking about FF endlessly on days like 'the day FB bought FF' - Holly Rae, FFer

Thanks to Shea for being generous with time and resources. He invited me to Google Wave. - Holly Rae, FFer

Thanks to Josh Haley & Johnny for creating a podcast that rocks and clued me in to so many things about FF. - Holly Rae, FFer

Thanks to Josh Haley for being the first FFer who gave me really great advice about lists. - Holly Rae, FFer

Thanks to Louis Gray for always searching up Friendfeed mentions and liking ... makes Newbies feel great!! - Holly Rae, FFer

And thanks to everyone but my Diet Coke enabler is here now. Then I have to go work again. Love you guys! - Holly Rae, FFer

I would rather everyone be anonymous than no one. - jeneane sessum

Gerard: as I said in the other thread this would be impossible to enforce so I wouldn't worry about it too much. - Robert Scoble

I commented on your blog: I think anonymity is both a horrible thing and a great tool, it depends on how it's used. In some countries complete anonymity is needed, otherwise they would be put to death or jail. I find its far more respectable when someone puts a real name and face to their opinion, though it isnt always needed. - Colby Olson

Robert: I just think it's interesting that you want to abolish anonymity, that in itself is an odd thing to say, I suppose. Perhaps you could explain your reasoning? - Colby Olson

Robert I think we all realize it would not be enforceable but what I'm going after is the idea behind it - that *were it enforceable*, it would be a good thing. To me, the underlying idea that anonymous speech is a bad thing and should be eliminated is rather authoritarian and terrifying. - Anthony Citrano

Colby: everything that I have seen negative on the Internet is due to anonymity. Can you link to one positive thing? Mini Microsoft but even that would be much better if the guy who wrote it would sign his name. - Robert Scoble

Anthony: well, I don't see it as a good thing. I have freedom of speech already and would die to defend that. Anonymity is for cowards. - Robert Scoble

Robert, speaking out on the internet against oppressive governments is not a bad thing. And as I have stated previously, many revolutions start in anonymity. Again, rules of absolutism don't allow for both sides. Anonymity is a tool and it can be used for good and bad. - Tim Finucane

Kind of a night of drastic comments from the Scobleizer, huh?? Everything negative on the internet is due to anonymity. Yikes thats a whole new round of overstatement. I love following you Robert and agree way more often than not but that's silly. - Cody Heitschmidt

tim: what revolution started with anonymity? Certainly NOT the American one. - Robert Scoble

It most definitely did start with secret meetings. The crown didn't know identities until after things got under way. - Tim Finucane

Robert: You just spawned numerous blog posts and threads with that one. I agree with you up to a point. One of the two that I have blocked on FF was determined to be a troll and supposedly anon. However, there are many countries that speaking up and signing on the dotted line will get both your head and hand chopped off. - Mathew A. Koeneker

Cody is right. I did overstate that and I am sorry about that. - Robert Scoble

The Internet is and should be about choice. You should be able to choose your level of anonymity. It is not one shoe fits all. - Jauder Ho

Robert... i would follow you into the fire.. and here is why we all follow you: Your are passionate. Sometimes it gets in your way because you overstate things but then you admit you are wrong. A guy with 30,000 followers could be big headed enough not to admit something he said wasn't quite right. It's cool that a little guy in Ks can make a contrary statement at you and not just get blocked and you roll over him. Now admit you were wrong on the rule against anonymity too. lol just kidding. - Cody Heitschmidt

Robert -- There is legitimate reason for anon speech, especially on the internet. What I think you really want is a "Personal Global Internet Filter" that allows the removal of the ugliest side-effects. Even looking to the American revolution, pen names and aliases were used countless times by the likes of Thomas Jefferson, et al. There is a legitimate purpose to it... the statement that no revolution was started by anonymous is a bit of a stretch. - Mark Philpot

There are a ton of reasons for a person to use a pseudonym on the internet. Especially when you look at people in other countries who can only speak by being "nameless". I even have reasons for using a name that isn't my real name. - Candace

Don't admit you were wrong on the rule unless you believe it... until you believe ! hehe lol Great freaking discussion who started this whole mess with the rule comment? - Cody Heitschmidt

I believe it was started by Robert's response to Laura Fitton's question: "What one "rule" would you make about the Internet?" - Tim Finucane

i'm sorry he's wrong or right depending i've been batting this question lately and i use the internet not to shield who i am but to get people to talk to me who wouldn't do to disability. and if i ever meet any net folks in RL my hope is that they will be over it quicker due to knowing I'm capable and cool to begin with - Cecil Sandus

To all those under pseudonyms: Why? Are you truly in fear of reprisal? @Dtrizzle a link to your blog profile quickly reveals you. @Corvida do you have a reason? - Mathew A. Koeneker

@Robert Scoble (scobleizer): What's so negative about my blog? Well, other than the fact that I don't apply myself. Sorry, there've been too many firings and too many "we won't hire you" situations because of uptight control freaks in power who can't stand employees who have their own minds. Anyone who really desires it can find out who MiniMage is, but I feel the better for not broadcasting my real name, and so do my parents. - MiniMage, sheeple of FF from NoiseRiver

well said Mage - Cecil Sandus

One rule for the internet is that all data is equal. The second rule is that there are no other rules. I think Scoble's idea of not anonymity is becoming more a reality with people's lives becoming intertwined with their online identity. I would like to preserve anonymity for whistle blowers, etc. Anonymity is a tool that can be used or abused. - Erik Weese

Pseudonyms mean nothing. People do find out who you are. I spent two days in a courtroom reading my blog entries aloud that were posted under a pseudonym. If you don't want people to read what you write, buy a pen and a blank journal and stick it under your mattress. - Trish R

MiniMage many many more people have been hired for their blogs than fired for them and I can't think of an instance where someone who was fired wasn't behaving stupidly. We have a whole chapter in our book about that. - Robert Scoble

yes Dtrizzle that makes sense to me and Trish as for your idea it's an oldie but a goodie... - Cecil Sandus

corvida isn't anonymous. I have talked with her on the phone. Minimicrosoft is pretty anonymous but I know at least one person who knows who he is. - Robert Scoble

Dtrizzle - The bit on your educational background while perfect for a resume can provide an easy way to start skip-tracing you. Not that I am. Just one of the little tricks I learned where tech meets accounting. - Mathew A. Koeneker

it is amazing the conversations that can start with a simple word or two. I am at a wedding with people who have left Iran to get the freedom of speech so understand well the problems with using your real name. One guy here was in Iranian prisons for years. He is not afraid to stand up in public against injustice. - Robert Scoble

@Robert Scoble (scobleizer): Do you remember the Chronicle of Higher Education article where someone talked about being on an interview committee? These EDUCATED folks attitudes were explained thus, "Several committee members expressed concern that a blogger who joined our staff might air departmental dirty laundry (real or imagined) on the cyber clothesline for the world to see. Past... more... - MiniMage, sheeple of FF from NoiseRiver

Scoble I think he was referring to the fact that I don't use my real name online at all. As for the person who asked why, because I don't want people Googling me. I like to keep my personal life separate from my online life. Same person, different interactions and I don't want them overlapping in any way, shape, or form. - Corvida

@Corvida - Why keep yourself so fragmented? Then you have to remember who you with whom. I am with Robert for the most part on this one. You instantly gain more respect from me if your are proud enough of your name to attribute ALL of your actions whether in the VW or RW to it. You are an American are you not? Unless, you have a TS like my folks then who or what are you hiding from. Telling me that it is just a personal choice is a cop out. @Dtrizzle gives some valid rationale for his decision. - Mathew A. Koeneker

There are certain place on the net that you NEED anonymity !! Take a look at some Forums that ONLY focus on vulnerability disclosures. Each and every one of them is only known by a handle. Chances that you actually associate a handle w/ real name /face is near impossible. - Peter Dawson

I could argue the same. Most in my situation do take that approach. My disease is just that a disease. It is what it is. Like I commented earlier there can be valid reasons; I just wanted to hear Corvida's rationale both from a personal interest as she is just another human being as well as from the pov of the well known blogger. - Mathew A. Koeneker

Interesting convo. I actually talked to Mark Hopkins about this. He brought his anon handle into his identity. I've kept mine apart. I don't agree with no one being anonymous; I happily existed online for years and can still write about personal issues and my children without compromising their (or my) privacy. - Cyndy

I vote for anonymity. If you are anonymous and threatening though, realize that I also support using every tracking method possible to make a community safer. People can not yell "FIRE" in a crowded room. I can not call my neighbor a "RAPIST" just because I feel like it. Regulated Free Speech is ok. Unregulated free speech is not, just as I can not go around town physically hitting anyone I want to ("Freedom of Action"). - Mitchell Tsai

The vast majority of my college friends (Harvard 1982-89, age 40-50) are still petrified of Facebook due to Corvida's concerns - and I have mostly techy friends. There are discussions on our alumni boards (on & off Facebook) about all the potential career dangers. About 30-40% of my college friends are on LinkedIn because they understand resumes & how you can control the presentation of... more... - Mitchell Tsai

P.S. I've spoken with Corvida on the phone also. We were going to visit Georgia Tech together, but plans didn't work out (and my college friend who's a professor there turned out to be out-of-town also). Bummer. - Mitchell Tsai

Assume ANYTHING you e-mail, post on the Internet, or say on a phone is recorded somewhere and scanned for verbal/textual keywords. My first company is now partially owned by the C... and we process information to find ter...... Over 10 years ago (1992-98), I attended academic data-mining conferences where people from the phone company presented the algorithms they were using to scan... more... - Mitchell Tsai

“regulated free speech”, Mitchell? Can you be serious? - Anthony Citrano

Yep. - Mitchell Tsai

well i think the concept is absurd, myself. but i'm out. also, why post 5-6 messages in a row instead of 1? it's messy and inelegant. - Anthony Citrano

Paragraph marks in a comment would work too. I don't like how everything runs together in one comment... - Mitchell Tsai

@Robert people tend to act differently online than they do in real-life, anonymous or not. They perceive a disconnect between their online profile and life. Makes people be more direct, confrontational, and sometimes hostile. They don't feel bound by the same social rules (have respect for each other). - Alexander van Elsas

I can fully understand that some wish to be anonymous on the web. But thinking that the things you do online are disconnected from your offline life is stupid. I am not anonymous online and I am aware that my interactions are always visible. - Alexander van Elsas

Resurrected because of this: http://friendfeed.com/rww... - Anthony Citrano

I'll just add here that I don't agree that we should chop off our whole arm but if someone can point the finger and label me negatively knowing full well that I am public and not hiding behind a fake avatar, I should be able to see who is doing the labeling and so should the community since the insult was brought to the community's attention by the hiding labeler/harasser. We should... more... - Jeunelle Foster

Even aside from my opinion that the Imus thing was a bunch of BS from a clueless Outrage Nation, I disagree that providers ought strip away anonymity every time someone's feelings get hurt. - Anthony Citrano

My rule would be no obnoxious bloggers. - Cristo

There are good (edit: adequate) legal processes for handling truly abusive cases. - LogEx

This is a long thread and I may have missed it in a later response, but what about people finding you in person through the internet? I play WoW and my guild leader was stalked by someone who knew only her first name, state, and profession. He called her and flew to her area to find her. This is just a simple case of a nut job, but the internet is full of them. When you bring other countries, with less freedom into the mix things just get messier. - Heather

The thing is, he never defined his terms either. Is creating a bogus account and logging in through a proxy for a one-time flame the same as using a long-term pseudonym for mostly constructive purposes? I think not. There are so many good and valid reasons for not living completely transparently. - LogEx

@Anthony it's your opinion that you found the Imus thing BS and I'm not talking about when people's feelings get hurt, I disagree in cases where someone can get physically hurt, here is an example. Blogcatalog was in heat a few months ago when some of these members who I see as negative while hiding behind fake persona, fake avatars, hiding their Ip addresses and whois information took... more... - Jeunelle Foster

WOW. I was trying to figure out why I had this pop up from a year ago. I still pretty much side with The Scoblezier with a few exceptions. If you are blogging, chatting, or even surfing on-line....odds are pretty good that a determined individual or govt entity can find you out. You may think that you are "anon" but in reality you are not at all. Plus, I have a lot less respect for folks esp in this country that are unwillling to put their real names in their posts. - Mathew A. Koeneker

I didn't feel like cutting and pasting so sorry. But if you think that your on-life persona is somehow sacred and secure from your real life identity then you have some harsh realities to wake up to. This is the information age people. - Mathew A. Koeneker

The good thing about Twitter is you can use it any way you want. The bad thing about Twitter is you can use it any way you want. - Joel Postman

And one other thing. IT ISN'T FRIDAY YET! - Joel Postman

Joel, it is in Australia/New Zealand, and similarly time-zoned places. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

Jandy: the user in the example above was on the West Coast U.S., was still Thursday when it was posted. I masked details as I wasn't out to embarrass any particular person. - Joel Postman

That's what I don't understand about Follow Friday. When you see lists like those, are you even tempted to click on ANY of them and follow those people? I'm not. - Trish R

That's ridiculous. - Rochelle

Not a big deal. It's just one person who's doing it a way you don't like. Well, unfollow them/block them. That's all there is to it. - Candace

It's hundreds of people, Candace, and I'm not alone in this. That was just one example. Follow Friday has driven thousands of people to FriendFeed. http://www.socializedpr.com/no-foll... - Joel Postman

Joel, oh. In that case. You're right. If it's not Friday where you are, don't post Follow Friday yet. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

I'm never tempted to click on any of the multiple followfriday twitter ids, but it also doesn't bother me if other people are doing it. I generally will promote one person at a time when I get a chance to participate in that sort of thing. - Jannifer @wordsforliving

No. I always liked my name. No one else had it. What I *hated* (and still do) is when someone tries to call me "Candy". - Candace

Ohhhhhh yes! Kids were not feelin' the Nigerian name in Battle Creek, MI. - nakachi

Absolutely. Other kids made fun of it, and no one could pronounce it (unlike me, most people apparently didn't learn to read by dividing up syllables). - MiniMage, sheeple of FF

I did - always had to spell it for everyone. And answer the "oh, I've never heard that before, where did you get it" queries. And could never get any of the stuff with names on it - like little license plates for my bike or hairbrushes or glasses or any of that other shit. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

I used to hate my name because it sounded like an old lady - Patricia. But now it doesn't bother me. - Trish R

Uh, yeah. The last name especially. Got too much static for it from the kids in the hood for many, many reasons. First name I thought was plain. I wanted to be Lisa or something sweet like that. Helen was always the name of someone's fat, eccentric aunt or grandmother. These days, I AM the fat, eccentric aunt, so I don't care. It's something I embrace. :D - Helen Sventitsky

yeah. tiffany is such a prissy a** little girl name. while i may have been a little girl, i was never a prissy a** one. i still don't like it. my name is a period name. you KNOW i was born in the 1970s or later. EDIT: funny you said that jandy. it took between 10 and 15 years before "tiffany" became a popular enough name to be featured on bike license plates. - tiffany

There was this one kid who used to call me "Heavy". We had a little wall-to-wall counseling session. He stopped after that. - Ha3rvey (Free hugs!)

No, I have always liked it. - Rochelle

I feel you, ha3rvey. I love my name now, but to this day, a muhfuh got one time to call me "nakoochie" before the smash comes down. - nakachi

I like mine now, too, but the last guy who called me "Har-vay" nearly got to see the one they call "Bad Harvey". He was my Director. I dedicated my life to destroying him. I at least got him fired. That counts for something. - Ha3rvey (Free hugs!)

No one really called by my 1st name when I was younger except my parents. I usually was called by a shortened version of my last name: Pidge. - Paul from twhirl

Nathalie was ok. Still is. Except when english folks (generally) from the southern part of North America pronounce the "H". - Nathalie, Dreamer of FF

Funny, people had/have problems pronouncing my name. I just figured they were/are defective and mock them. LOL - Anika

@Anika I didn't know how to pronounce your name. =D The reason is that in my daughter's class, her classmate's name is Anika, but she pronounces it "Awwwww-Nick-Awwwwww" - Shevonne

I'm a twin, Michael and Michelle, Mike and Shelly, it always seemed right. - Michael W. May

Anika, how do you pronounce it? I have a tendancy of pronouncing names that "look" french in french. - Nathalie, Dreamer of FF

LOL @Shevonne. I give people one chance. Once I tell you how to say my name, it should firmly implanted in your head, because I'm simply unforgettable. BWHAHAHAHAHAHA Nathalie ,it's pronounced "uh-KNEE-kah". - Anika

It didn't bother me. People can spell it. Though they were always out of the license plate things in the store, even though my name was one of them. I kind of like it now because people think of a blonde, blue eyed (definitely not black, seemingly average) woman when they see my name in print and that is not what they get. - Amber, Random Time Lord

yep. All my kids hate their names, so I guess we're even....or something...! - WorldofHiglet

I always liked my name. I've always been a bit different and it seemed right that my name was a bit different from everyone I knew. The only bothersome thing is I couldn't get the license plates, etc either since my mom spelled my name a weird way. Hated that when I was little. Plus, I have a little lisp and no one spells my name right anyways, so I have to spell out my name for everyone. - Alisha Vargas

come to think of it, I couldn't get "my" name on things either. it was always Natalie - no H. I wanted the H dammit! only place I could get things with with H is if someone travelled to France or the Province of Quebec - Nathalie, Dreamer of FF

Yup. I would get called every variation even Suzyanne but most often Susan. I would correct after the first time but always felt kinda bitchy to do it more than that so I just let it go. Of course my last name was Pinto so Shazam Pinto was a favorite tease. My MIL's name is Susan and I have an aunt name Sue and a cousin named Suzy so that's always fun at family gatherings. - suzanne

nope - Josh Haley

No it's aight - Rodfather

I don't think I ever really thought about. Me = Derrick *shrug* - Derrick

Yep, so I changed it. - Alix Whitmire

Kinda hated it. Tina is short for a family name, and every year the teachers would look perplexed for a minute and then manage to horribly mangle my first, middle, and last name. And ditto the "oooh, where's THAT from?" explanations. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Absolutely. I was the only Brandon and people would always spell it wrong or call me Brendan or some form of that. Now the name is everywhere. I blame Aaron Spelling and 90201. - Brandon Mendelson

Ugh, totally. Those damned ATT Dial down the center commercials hit right as I was in elementary school.. And Colette apparently looks enough like Call-att [especially if you butcher the pronounciation] that I had that chanted at me repeatedly. -.- I wanted to be a Caroline, or something of that nature. Nowadays...I like it. It's a rarer name than most- especially with only 1 L. - Colette

@Colette first time I saw your name in tonight, I did a mouse over to see if Toni as attached and noticed the missing "L"*chuckle* - Michael W. May

Hated it then but now I just think it's boring, despite the popularity of 24's Jack. My dad was to blame for Jack, my mom wanted to name me Maxwell, which is much cooler. But hearing Jack Be Nimble, Jack Sprat and Jackoff every day made me less sensitive about it and more confident in my inner strengths. Still, I prefer Jeber to Jack (and yes, it's Jack, not John). - Jack (a.k.a. Jeber)

hated my last name - there are so many possibilities for Harryman, and kids are imaginative - William Harryman

Well, it does irritate me to this day that no one is able to pronounce my name the correct way. - Ahsan Ali aka. Slick

Nope. - Steven Perez

Gina was always used as a teasing point (VA-gina) and my initials were GAK. Kuki was cool though... - InPerpetualMotion(Gina k)

Peter peter pumpkin eater was a refrain I heard a lot, so I started going by Pete. Now as an adult I'm slowly switching back b/c no matter how clearly I pronounce Pete when I answer the phone at work, I still get called either Steve or Keith. - Pete Delucchi

Did, and still do hate my middle name. Hint: Governor of California. - David Cook

I always liked my name growing up because I didn't have to worry about anyone else in my class (or school for that matter) having it. I did miss getting the "personalized" stuff that was all the rage in the 80's but I still liked being kind of unique. I remember it being such a shock when I was in my 20's in the mall and it seemed like every 4 year old girl's mother was calling my name... more... - Her Lindsay-ness

My last, I did have issues with... it started as Morris until I was almost 8. Nine Lives cat food spokesman was Morris the Cat. Not fun. Then it became May. Michael May, Michael May not. etc. - Michael W. May

Hated it. People always make a joke about Gilligan's Island. - Ginger Makela Riker

On the other hand, when Walter Koenig told me I had a pretty name and asked me about the origin, I liked my name for a good 24-48 hours...and every time I remember that. *goofy Trek goober grin* - MiniMage, sheeple of FF

39 here. I have to wonder what technologies we'll see if I live to 104! - Kevin C. Tofel

Ok, I'm winning as the oldest friendfeed user so far since I'm two years older than you Kevin. - Thomas Hawk

There's a FFer in his 70s on here, I just can't remember who it is... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

20. - Evan Travers

Tina, he must be present to win. OK so far Evan's the youngest at 20 and I'm the oldest at 41. - Thomas Hawk

I confess to be 62 - Gilbert Harding

Gilbert that's awesome! So so far Evan Travers youngest at 20, Gilbert Harding the oldest at 62. - Thomas Hawk

We have a FFer here who's 73. I'm 36. I'll go out on a limb and say Michael Forian is our youngest active member. - Anika

who is 73 Anika? He/she's gotta post in this thread. So far Gilbert and Evan are winning. - Thomas Hawk

55, Gilbert has me beat by a few years. - Jack (a.k.a. Jeber)

When my baby is born, I'll sign 'em up for FriendFeed. ;) - Tamar Weinberg

I don't remember, Thomas. We just did an age thing last week and he posted. I think it was in Alp's thread. - Anika

54 - Rod Bauer from twhirl

does friendfeed have an age requirement in order to have an account like Flickr and other sites? - Thomas Hawk

Jack DeWitt Smith is 73 so he says. Damn it I thought I was going to win a prize here. - Gilbert Harding

37 - Alex Scoble

So Jack's 73 as the oldest and Evan's the youngest at 20. I can't believe that there are not any octogenarians on FriendFeed. You folks need to get your parents and grandparents on here. - Thomas Hawk

I am 32. - Louis Gray

Thomas: my son Patrick is on friendfeed and he's 15. - Robert Scoble

I'm neither. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)

Michael Forian is 14 - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Ok, So Michael Forian's the youngest at 14 and Jack DeWitt Smith's the oldest at 73. I just did the math on all mentioned in this this thread and the average age so far is 43.1 years in age. - Thomas Hawk

I am smack in the middle at 38 - holly

Kevin, I've never met a fetus who can type. Ok the high low are still Michael at 14 and Jack at 73. The average is now 40.125. - Thomas Hawk

Thomas: Milan can turn on an iPhone, can select the icon of his favorite game, and can play a game. He's not yet two years old. So, expect him to lower the friendfeed bar pretty low pretty soon. - Robert Scoble

35. Looks like I'm right in the wheelhouse. - Mike Lewis

21. - Kevin Mohr

36 - edward volkert

Robert, would FriendFeed let Milan have an account? Is there an age requirement? I think Patrick got kicked off of Second Life for being too young didn't he? Mike L, Kevin, Josh and edward just dropped the average age down below 40 to 37.6 - Thomas Hawk

33 here... - Sean Simkins

38 - Mykl Roventine

Thomas: I don't see why my son wouldn't be allowed to have an account. I'm 44 by the way. - Robert Scoble

average now = 37.70. Michael the low at 14, Jack the high at 73. - Thomas Hawk

21 - Roberto Bonini

quite difficult to type, still waiting on some fingers. also as a fetus i dont know much but am questioning the term "FFer", sounds short for something else. - Kevin Murray

45 - Peter Dawson

37 - ororodc

Kevin I'm not buying that you're a fetus. Is it warm in the womb? - Thomas Hawk

24, need to bring that average down a bit. - Michael

I'm 26 years, one month, and three days. - Chris, Taskerrific Guy

27, so in the younger half. - Rochelle

41 here, and coincidentally just created an account for my son last night (2 1/2) playing with streaming his photos/activities for the grandparents. - Rick Bucich

hmmm.. Rick I'm not sure that this counts if he's not controlling the account. New average is 36.27, we're getting younger. I think that's a good thing maybe. - Thomas Hawk

25 Here, a whole quarter century - Brandon - BWC Games

I'm 28 and I'm carrying a fetus. But I'm the one doing the typing. - Tamar Weinberg

firefox because I am used to it. opera when FF gives me trouble. not crazy about safari. on those rare occasions when I fire up my PC I use chrome if it's just for something quick. firefox if I am doing dev work.

Restricted to IE at work. Firefox mostly, Safari occasionally at home.Will eventually try Chrome - MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS

Messaging on the Univac in late 70s probably, at the college. BITNET, HEPNET, ARPANET in late 1980s. (Ignoring the BBS phenom of 80s.) EDU & GOV 1989+ My own domain I hosted around 1994. NEVER AOL or that fake-Internet stuff of the mid-90s. Ewww! After years of GOV, moved to COM at work in 1999. Started using GMAIL for all my personal mail when that was in Beta. I now have about 20 domains forward to GMAIL. - John Johnson

not counting university and school, or BBSes? My first email account would then have been jnebbe@ibm.net (back the first time when IBM did internet services) - they were one of the few to have reasonable dial up plans with a multi-country presence - and I was using OS/2 a lot then too. After it got bought by ATT and they changed the address, I decided that I would always have my own domain for email, so I would never lose people because I lose an email.
