Since Facebook's buyout, are you using Friendfeed as much?
NaHi, johnpiercy, Mike Nencetti and Bruce Lewis liked this
I haven't seen any evidence of a decline in FF's service since the buyout, so why would I use it less? Are people really in a "cut off your nose to spite your face" mode because they don't approve of Facebook in some way? - Steve
- CdL Creative
I think I'm using it with less enthusiasm. Don't want to get too attached to something that is likely to go away. Don't want to make that emotional commitment.
- Kevin Gamble
I'm using it and enjoying it as much as ever. I believe Paul Buchheit when he says that, if anything, the chances of FriendFeed going away are lower post-acquisition. Even assuming Facebook only wanted to acquire the talent, they probably can only keep that talent contractually for 2 years or less. If they want the talent to stick around for longer, they aren't going to kill a product that said talent created, still uses, and loves.
- Bruce Lewis
No, but only recently and because it is more buggy and less-maintained.

notable, too, is that lite.facebook.com looks/behaves more like FF everyday

Wish List - What I would really like is all our Flickr comments to come up in my Twitter stream - http://www.flickr.com/photos...
Why not feed the RSS of your Flickr recent activity page into FF and then on to Twitter. The only drawback I can see is that you only get to know that ther is a comment (see here http://friendfeed.com/cdlcrea...) rather than the acutal text of the comment - Steve
- CdL Creative
Hello Steve Thanks for the suggestion about RSS with Flickr. I would try this out but as you have found out it doesn't show up the full (or part) comments - it does notify you of a new comment, but this comes through email anyway. Maybe one day someone will come up with an elegant solution. Thanks again. All the best, Tony

How ironic that they whine about getting a taste of their own medicine. Next thing we know, they'll be demanding that the council re-house them because they are victims of hate. Sadly, the authorities will probably be much quicker to act to protect them.

FriendFeed wins because I manually refreshed the RSS aggregator here. Twitter came in #2. When will it show up on Google Reader?

I got it to Twitter before you did. :) (As for Google Reader, Pubsubhubbub is a big help, but there are still too many hops. Blog --> FeedBurner --> RSS Reader)

Yup.

How come you don't use the SUP plugin for your WordPress blog to get your posts to FF. Saves having to manually add and it's super fast. There's a hubbub plug-in, too, but I haven't used it yet.

Of note, I did get it in Google Reader and shared it a few minutes ago.

inorite?! To find out Kennedy died, I had to wake up and look at a screen. I mean why wasn't it dumped straight into my dreamfeed? Why when I lifted the toilet lid to deal with what woke me, wasn't the news swirling around the bowl?
- Matthew DeVries
I found out Ted Kennedy died via FriendFeed (the NY Times feed via Bret Taylor like)
- Louis Gray
Wasn't that just unacceptably slow Louis? Are we aspiring to the Taelon commonality or the Borg Collective here?
- Matthew DeVries
I found out about it from CNN on Twitter, which beat the NYT. :-)
- Robert Scoble
Actually that's not really true, a whole bunch of people Tweeted it all at once and I only remember the CNN one, cause that's the one I clicked favorite on.
- Robert Scoble
At some point a feed Heisenberg effect will come in to play, where you're measuring the events to close to the time they occurred, thus affecting the natural arc of the information, leading to a paradoxical lack of truth and slowing in becoming "informed"
- Matthew DeVries
Robert, that's fine, but I want to be sure we're not mixing up terminologies here. Google Reader != RSS - it's a (poorly designed in today's standards) interface to RSS
- Jesse Stay
RSS to me lets me process a ton of stuff when I get a few moments free to do so. May not be real time, but what I can do is wake up and scan through the 1000+ titles I see quickly to find the ones that catch my eye. For me to do that on tweetdeck or others, I need to leave them open and then scan through stuff & I find the links + avatars somewhat distracting. With G-reader, I can see...

To compare RSS with real time conversations on Twitter and Friendfeed is a mistake. RSS and real time conversations are different things, IMHO.
- Caio Cesar
Different things for different uses. When I want to follow everything a specific website says, I use Google Reader. When I want to follow everything a specific person says, I use FriendFeed. When I want to follow a specific topic, I use LazyFeed. RSS powers all three of these.
- Otto
Agree that RSS != FriendFeed. I use RSS for a lot more than what Friendfeed gives me. To name a few - newsgroup feeds (inside and outside the firewall), information on development such as work items and builds, twitter, friendfeed, ...) If nothing else, the fact I need things inside the firewall means I need a basic protocol and application to manage content.
- Bill Grant
Interesting. I read RSS because I want to know something instead of everything. RSS feeds are generally topically curated and in-depth. What you describe is a sampling strategy and works for trends and events. And that's great. But that's not all there is my friend, there's dancing too...
- Todd Hoff
I agree with MarkHirsch. Stuff may come faster to FF and Twitter, but I can process a greater volume of stuff more quickly through GReader. In collapsed view, it has much greater scanability, I don't get pulled into conversational tangents, plus it displays the full post without my having to click through. That's one thing that feels like a step backwards to me about using FF as an RSS reader - you have to click through EVERYTHING.

Is anything boring when it goes mainstream? ;)
- Melanie Reed
Jandy, are you using lists?
- Melanie Reed
If Google starts to integrate (maybe they did?) Friendfeed features into Reader, I think I'll go back to use it more...right now I'm using Friendfeed to discover/interact/read new feeds of interest...and using Google Reader for my previously subscribed RSS, sites, etc.

Melanie, on FF? Sometimes. Not most of the time.

Who's an "outsider"? I figured this would be easy, but if I examine the code on a per-line basis, it's obvious what it's doing. It's at one level up, the conceptual statement or function level, where, without the function name, it would make absolutely no sense.

Picture This: Flickr (Finally) Connects Photos to Twitter - http://bub.blicio.us/picture...
Mike Bracco, flaimo, Dan N. Moldovan and 13 other people liked this
"Flickr has finally joined the party for seamlessly connecting and sharing pictures directly to Twitter. Up until now, Twitpic and yfrog have dominated the Twitter stream for pictures, simply because they provided a tremendously easy system for snapping and uploading pictures to Twitter from mobile devices. While I’m an avid photographer, I am not however, an avid camera-phone shutterbug. Up until recently, if I were so inclined to proactively share an image from my Flickr Pro account, I would do so manually. However, an age-old feature within Flickr has finally received a long overdue update, the ability to not only “blog this” image, but also “tweet it.” Now, simply clicking on the “blog this” button above the image, you can now connect your Twitter account in addition to your blog. In doing so, it takes you to another window where you have roughly 120 characters remaining to frame the tweet. Flickr automatically provides a shortened “flic.kr” URL and embedds it into your Tweet to save time and effort."
