this is like porn for me. it really is - Cee Bee

LOL I was *just* wondering earlier today where you'd gone, Cee Bee. Maybe I just was logged on at the wrong times. - Kamilah Gill

LOL. Me too, Cee Bee. I'm really embracing and enjoying getting back to my more artistic endeavors. GO Kamilah!!!! - Derrick

i was busy cataloguing my #2 pencil collection - Cee Bee

Thanks for the encouragement, Derrick :) I was splodging around with some oil paints earlier, just to be painting. That's the one thing I'm a little short on, supports for painting. - Kamilah Gill

Yes, and I appreciated your comment on my post from this morning re: the role of art in our lives. I too went to art school and there's something about learning how to unlearn so that you can just create. Get on it, K...you'll be fine. :) - Derrick

Do you sort them all in chromatic scale- or some other order? I'd sort mine by length and/or type, since I can detect correct colors at runtime, so to speak (and if I can not, I shouldn't be needing to sort any color crayons in the first place). - ianf ⌘

I'm sorry, but this is a little scary. - Brent - Loving Life

Sorry it's scary to you, Brent. This is what happens after you go do art as a kid and as a teenager, go to art school for 6 years, then buy a few *more* things, and keep tossing them in a closet and forgetting what you already have. I was sorting them by brand, sort of, with some help from the Dick Blick website. Now stuff's all rubber-banded together, the Prismacolors are all in the bottom of my ArtBin, etc. Told you guys this was #reallyanal. - Kamilah Gill

I swear I sighed audibly with contentment. It's neat and beautiful. I've no idea how I missed this before. - Kisha, Well Conditioned from iPod

Ahhh I know the feeling. :D - Nate Pilling

Can you remind me again where to find those stats? - Brian Johns

Brian, go to "Me" link (http://friendfeed.com/brianjo...) which defaults to the Feed tab. Look at the sidebar on the right, below Discussion. - Micah Wittman

0.75 (926/1226) - still relatively new here - mikepk

I only see my stats for the last week (17/14 = 1.21) Please tell me your 670 number is for more than just a week! - Brian Johns

1.44 (566/391) for brianjohns (after week tally you should see a comma then 'all time' count - I can see it on your page) - Micah Wittman

OK, sorry. I'm a total dumbass. I stopped reading after the weekly totals... - Brian Johns

3.74, which seems way off of everybody else's. I wonder what that says. I comment a lot more than I like. - Cyrus Lendvay

FFers use FF with their own strategy or simply default tendencies. The ratio is an interesting snapshot of behaviour. Thanks for joining in everyone, hope more keep flowing in. - Micah Wittman from twhirl

A recent change in FF: now the comment count shows total number of comments (previously multiple comments in one thread only counted as one) http://friendfeed.com/e... so all the numbers above are from the old methodology.... - David HC Soul

Looks like my ratio as flipped again (comments back to dominating again). Seems to match my own awareness I've lately been commenting without Liking (commenting is my inherent recognition of value to me and the additional Like is when it merits an extra bump to help discovery by others). - Micah Wittman

Ryan, I have to say, that's one high caliber ratio ;) - Micah Wittman

Amani, so your comments have climbed a bit. - Micah Wittman

Thanks, Eric. - Micah Wittman

yes, but i am not consciously "not liking" things - Amani from IM

Probably, just chattier then :) - Micah Wittman

I'm down from 7.16 to 6.94 :-) - Ken Sheppardson

the live NBA playoff threads have ALOT to do with it. - Amani from IM

Ken, the FCC may be interested to explore how your "I'm down" may be offensively self-deprecating ;) - Micah Wittman

.56 eeep, must try harder - Threepwood

4.52. I don't bother to like things I've commented on, since commenting already flags it as interesting. - Andy Bakun

0.46 (1698/3638) - Glenn Slaven

Threepwood, Andy, Glenn - thanks (Andy, that's my mo too; then I'll Like if it warrants a "double vote"). - Micah Wittman

1.31 (4,471/3,401) - Karoli

Thanks, Karoli. And the both of us have a _very_ similar ratio and absolute numbers. wow. - Micah Wittman

Thanks, Ryo! - Micah Wittman

Darn - 0.52. I guess I need to say why I like something a little more often :-) Liking this thread because I was wondering the same thing recently. Has anybody worked out the average from the numbers here? </islazy> - Andy Bold

Andy, scroll upward and you'll see a couple calculations from before (January: Average: 1.27 | Median: 0.81) - Micah Wittman

In March the Mean was: 1.49 - Micah Wittman

Thanks, Rick! - Micah Wittman

Np Micah. What is that photo? - Rick Cogley

Rick, you mean that face with glasses I photoshopped tint into with an apparently disembodied arm which is actually very much attached to my eldest son? It's mostly just me :) - Micah Wittman

Yeah, that's a decent upward rise in comments, Nicholas. - Micah Wittman

1.76 (7539/4290) My commenting habits haven't chanced much, but it felt like I clicked Like a lot less, and this ratio confirms that for me. - Micah Wittman

Micah, are you doing something with these numbers? If so sounds interesting. - Jimminy Fuller

0.58 - James (!?)

Jimminy, I'm copyrighting every single number. It's kind of a honeypot ;) Actually, it was curiosity mostly, but I also hope to build a sampling (small and self-selecting as it may be) for anyone who might want to analyze it. - Micah Wittman

Jonas, James and Kurt - thanks you! - Micah Wittman

You're welcome. I hope the results do some good. :-) - James (!?)

Thanks JA, Chris (wow, 12+ is unusual :), Serkan and Nine! - Micah Wittman

0.89 (17818/19913) (Somebody better make a cool ass graph of all this data!) - Haggis (Sean Loyless)

Micah.. I told you I take my likes seriously; ). You *might* want to ask (in a separate post) what percentage of likes were used to "bookmark" a post or save it for later VS actually "liking it". I NEVER used like for that.. but I did use a private group that if filled with my own topics (and comments).. - Chris Myles

1.78 (8529/4782) - Micah Wittman

Likes are down relative to comments, which matches my much lower frequency of liking. I'm a more selective liker than ever. - Micah Wittman

0.9009 (6055/6721) - Jason Huebel

OK, so statistically, what ratio results in better interaction on FF? - Jason Huebel

I don't think I could argue that any particular kind of ratio is "best", because if Lurkers like to Lurk and cultivate (via Likes) and the Chatty-ites love to chat, to pump out much many more comments than Likes, each can be happy and make for a great social experience. - Micah Wittman

So I'm fairly balanced, it appears. I would imagine it's because I try to comment on every post I like. That's not always true, obviously. But mostly it is. - Jason Huebel

Just clicking "Like" seems too easy. I feel like I should say something, too. - Jason Huebel

383/372 - ashish

'Just clicking "Like" seems too easy' — Jason, that's because you're from the Chatty-ite tribe :) - Micah Wittman

Thanks, ashish. - Micah Wittman

wow, what a difference time makes, when i 1st posted on this thread, 6.43%, now = 1.25%, for a 5.18% difference, :o (and this is the earliest post to date i've recovered of my activity on ff) - chaz2b

chaz, I think there's been a big fluctuation for most people (maybe not that much). This is the oldest post on which you commented that you've recovered? - Micah Wittman

When I first saw this: 1.91 Sept 28: 1.94 - MiniMage - HLtW

536 comments in the last month has me at .8736...still creeping toward 1.00 - Bren - Minister of Mayhem

Thank you, SustainedEuphoria. - Micah Wittman

1.80 (10,189 / 5,666) [compared to Likes, my Comments still continue to rise] - Micah Wittman

1.02 (10323/10161) - Bren - Minister of Mayhem

.5666 currently (30,084/53,093) - Alex Scoble

Thanks, Bren. - Micah Wittman

Thank you, Alex :) - Micah Wittman

that was my third post... It's interesting to see how the number has changed. of course, I manipulated the number to a degree, because I stopped "liking" things for a while... - Bren - Minister of Mayhem

Bren, the other thing that can seriously throw off someone's stats is a feed that upon each item it imports adds a comment automatically. - Micah Wittman

true. that can seriously inflate comment stats, of course. Then you have someone like RAPatton, who posts a gazillion comments, in part because of his playlist posts where he will list each song in a separate comment. I found, after this post in fact, that I tended to "like" things much more frequently than comment on them, that I was lurking instead of participating. I have changed the way I use ff rather considerably, and I think for the better. - Bren - Minister of Mayhem

Summer intern? - Mike Doeff

Yeah, Sanjeev was also there that same summer as it turns out. - Paul Buchheit

Crazy. - Eric @ CSTechcast.com

oooh look at how young and cute Paul is! :) very cool that you saved this! What was your job title then (intern for ______)? What location did you work at? Does that # mean you were the 39,325 employee hired by M$? - Susan Beebe

I bet I could find mine if I tried, too. - Gabe

I wish I still had my Apple badge. They made me give it back when I left. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

Do I sense a meme coming? - Chris Lamprecht

Yeah, unfortunately I don't seem to have any pics of my Sun badge, so I can't collect the whole set :( - Paul Buchheit

bummer! collection is busted - Susan Beebe

my work badges are boring white - no logo..nothing - designed for max security I guess - Susan Beebe

Paul, did you work in Redmond? - Gary Burd

Gary, Paul and I both worked in Redmond. Paul worked on Plus! Setup. - Gabe

Oooh I remember Plus! that was really cool and made Win95 rock! - Susan Beebe

Wow, I had no idea that you guys worked at Microsoft. Gabe, what did you work on? - Gary Burd

Ex-PM in Developer Tools here. Visual J++ for the um, ... - DeWitt Clinton

Maybe it would be more efficient for everyone who didn't work at Microsoft to raise their hand. - DeWitt Clinton

How cute ;) - Bindu Reddy

I worked on Win NT, debugging OLE. It was pretty bad because the NT OLE code was fine; all the bugs were in 16-bit OLE apps. There are few things worse than debugging interactions between two 16-bit apps you don't have the source to! - Gabe

Wow, 16 bit OLE. Why didn't you force everyone to use 32bit Word and Excel? It would've been very Apple of you. - Eric @ CSTechcast.com

Yup, Redmond. I think I worked in building 4, which may not exist anymore, and lived across the street at "Timberlawn". I worked on the installer for "Plus Pack for Windows 95". - Paul Buchheit

Eric, it gets worse: one of the first apps I had to look at was Ichitaro, Japan's #1 word processor at the time. It sure would have made things easier if I could have forced everybody to only use 32-bit English apps! - Gabe

Awesome, Paul. - Christopher Sacca

I tried, and I can't remember my ORCL employee number any more! Does that mean I've finally put it all out behind me? - Tudor Bosman

My Intel WWID was 10599476, but I get the feeling that they added at least 10,000,000 to the employee number to generate that value. - Paul Buchheit

I've already forgotten my Google employee number. I think my Yahoo! number was right around 9000... - Kevin Fox

Ok here's a picture of my current ones I mentioned - sorta boring white plan ID badges http://friendfeed.com/e... - Susan Beebe

haha, cool... And I didnt even know that I´m apparently the only person on friendfeed who hasn´t been a summer intern at Microsoft - Peter Efland

At least they gave you a top-30 number at Google :) - Charlie Anzman

Once again proving that you're "kind of a big deal". Nice badge! - Randy Holloway from twhirl

*swoon* - Yuvi

I wonder if it was some kind of foresight to hang on to your old Microsoft badges, but not your diplomas. - Clare Dibble

Nice, a blue badge. I consult for Microsoft and have an Orange badge. - Alan Le

Wow! I was there that same summer interning for "Office Team Manager" I must have started a week or 2 before you as my employee number was 39207. - Joe Beda ()

I think I returned my badge, so I can't remember what my employee number was. I worked on porting the standard ms installer from windows to the mac. - Private Sanjeev

Sanjeev - a worthy cause for sure! :P - Susan Beebe

It was a piece of code that Ben Slivka wrote to produce cab files :) - Private Sanjeev

#39325 @ Microsoft. #23 @ Google. Do you have an ID at Google? ;) - AJ Batac

My MS ID was #38440 @ Microsoft... There were around 17k employees when I joined in 1995. - Steve Lacey

When Joel and I were in Iraq, he spent 11 months on the FOB, did not go outside the wire once. Meanwhile, I did more convoys outside the wire than I can count. Anyway, 2 weeks before he is scheduled to fly back to the US, a captain requested that he go to Haifa Street for a few days during their first election. At the time, Haifa Street was one of the most dangerous places to be. I was... more... - Michelle Martinez

must've been quite an experience - Cee Bee

In retrospect yes it very neat to witness and be a part of Iraq's 1st election and watching the Iraq people run up to me to show their inked fingers. But at the same time it sucked having 4 polling stations surround you and knowing that we were basically a huge target. - jamar78

I like the third one, it's gang-sign-y-ish - mjc

GAH! I love that word! Yeah, I gotcha Tina ;) - Josh Haley

The first one is actually really similar to how you sign "free" in ASL. http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... - Rochelle

And the second one is similar to "family" in ASL. http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... - Rochelle

Nice one, Rochelle! - Josh Haley

Some prefer the printed letter F, for those who can't read sign - http://friendfeed.com/e... - Ontario Emperor

Looks good to me. - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah

I actually prefer a single handed gang sign . . . since I'll be on FF with the phone in the other hand. - B. Hatin

Show me! Post your ideas for signs. - Josh Haley

Those first two will make people think you are throwing up "Bloods". - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

I think the only course to go here is to pick something directly from sign language.....I don't want anyone to bust a e-cap in my ass - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah

Monique - THANK YOU for that because I would never know. I too am not in need of a cap-busting. - Josh Haley

If you want a real ASL sign, let me know what word/words and I'll find it! - Rochelle

Rochelle, One for friend, feed and confess(ion) - Josh Haley

Oh, and Night Crew - Josh Haley

Friend: http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... - Rochelle

Feed is hard. There's a sign for "feed", but it's the eating sense. http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... - Rochelle

"Night crew" would be the sign for "night" plus the sign for "group" or "team" so: http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... plus http://homepage.gallaudet.edu/harry... - Rochelle

"Confession" would be signed as "true/truth": http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... - Rochelle

Is there a list anywhere of the sites that automatically post images to FF when you put their RSS/MRSS feeds into here? I want to get images from Google Reader to show up here. If not from GReader, then I need a few other options. Looking for something that's not blocked at work (so not Twitpic, Posterous, similar sites). - Kamilah Gill

thanks - Richard Lawler

What software do you use to convert/create your animated gifs? - Ken Morley

This walkthrough with GIMP shows how to do it from a video file: http://friendfeed.com/rjcc... http://www.youtube.com/watch... - Richard Lawler

Richard, do you need Linux to run Gimp? - Ken Morley

I was bad tempered all day until I finally found this post. Now I know how to post Gifs to FriendFeed. Thanks, Mo :) - Baard @ Pixum

بابا این دروغ رو چنیبار میخواهید تکرار کنین؟ این آخرین روز علیه روسری نیست. این تظاهرات در اردیبهشت یا خرداد هزار و سیصد و پنجاه و نه انجام شد. دلیل اجباری شدن حجاب در ایران چیزهای دیگه ای بود نه این تظاهرات. حجاب در پاییز سال ۱۳۶۰ توسط دولت موسوی اجباری شد. - dadabase

همه تون میدونین دورغه و باز میاین با هم تظاهر به احساساتی شدن میکنین - dadabase

shut up cee bee none of this is any of your business. you have no idea how things were. go lick your own wound and mind your own business. - dadabase

Cee Bee, things will never go GO BACK to the way they once were, so let's not wish for it! I have no idea about the history of cee bee and others though! Probably not a nice one, right, dadabase? - booteh budahead

Can someone who speaks English tell me more about this photo? - Rochelle

I think I can. This is a photo of the day before women were required to wear the hajab in public. - Joe

Dear Rochelle It's about Islamic Revolution of 1979 In Iran. you can read more here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... (http://www.anvari.org/iran...) - 2ndmoon©

"Nonetheless the ideology of the revolution opposes equal rights for women. Within months of the founding of the Islamic Republic the 1967 Family Protection Law was repealed, female government workers were forced to observe Islamic dress code, women were barred from becoming judges, beaches and sports were sex-segregated, the marriage age for girls was reduced to 13 and married women were barred from attending regular schools." - Joe

@J.Deakins exactly, ... as I've heard we had the choice to wear or don't wear the hijab right after the islamic revolution... but after a while... they took it. - 2ndmoon©

Took the choice away. - Joe

Thanks, ²ndmoon°. - Rochelle

She is welcome ²ndmoon° - Joe

Here Rochelle consider this an invite: http://friendfeed.com/the-sol... Akiva is welcome too. - Joe
