mmm bacon - (jeff)isageek

it's bacooooonn! - Sarah Perez

Great examples! - Paul Buchheit

I agree with Paul very interesting snapshot of the FF community while showcasing the power of the new search app. - Keith - @tsudo

I especially liked that you did links to originals. Makes it easy to share as explained - MaryAnn Chick Whiteside

Thanks mcw, tsudohnimh and Paul. I didn't pretty up the post with screen captures. I felt the original links themselves could tell the story. - Louis Gray

'So yes, FriendFeed loves Scoble, tolerates me, and loves babies' - Classic :) - Charlie Anzman

This is so funny - the very time I ever commented on an LG item was on July 9th, 2008! - Mona Nomura

Just so you know, that conversation in Italian was NOT about a cat. It was a mother's story about the abusive treatment her 4 yr old autistic child received from a professional photographer. - April

It's totally different to Ping.fm. It's not another multiple-service updater. It allow you to follow many social services from a desktop app. - Leandro Ardissone ⍨

ping.fm has a desktop app if you have an Im client - TheHenry

an im client is a desktop app.. ping.im offers a bot to use with your IM :) - Leandro Ardissone ⍨ from IM

EventBox: One-Window Social Networking (Review and Giveaway) from Smoking Apples. http://is.gd/7Wwx - Jonathan Kong

Anyone interested in FriendFeed support in this app? http://is.gd/aBpG - Devon Campbell

Well a ping.fm for mac's - Victor

This app is really quite nice - Jason Wehmhoener

bump due to duplicate - Zee.

So people pay for beta apps now? WTF? - dgw from fftogo

@Voyagerfan5761 It's an investment. The assumption is that the app will someday come out of beta. Then you will have a copy for less than people who paid after the beta. It's not much different than buying a stock hoping it will go up. - Devon Campbell

bump due to duplicate - Zee.

That's repulsive. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

OUCH MY EYES. - Jandy

that's some Melon eggplant right there. My own recipe . - MG Siegler

Flashbacks to my Commodore 64 days when I learned how to color change the screen. I was big on white on cyan. - Anika

oh nice - Allen Stern

o m g - Christopher Chung

The goggles! They do nothing! - Mike Nayyar

ewwww! ha ha - Sarah Perez

For the inbox background color, if a light color is chosen it seems to get mixed with gray (e.g.–choosing white gives #e6e6e6). EDIT: It only lets you choose bgcolor for unread emails; wish we could also choose the color for read emails... - Dan Hsiao

Kevin Fox must be rolling in his chair :-) - Shakeel Mahate

In the 80’s I almost rented an Apartment on Florida St in San Francisco that had the same colored walls, except that green was a glossy black. - Mike Reardon

that actually hurt my eyeballs - Jannifer @wordsforliving

Wow, nice. This is exactly what we had in mind! - Keith Coleman

This is awesome!! - Jason Wehmhoener

hook me up some red text on a blue background! - Neil Bernhart

My EYES!!!!!!!!!!!! Hide - Roberto Bonini

This theme is deliciously hideous - Bwana ☠

Looks like a condiment shelf threw up all over the screen. - Steven Perez

Reminds me of the Hot Dog Stand theme from Windows 3.1 - Scott Kingery

ha yes, hot dog stand, that was a truly awful color scheme - MG Siegler

Wish they would let us modify the logo colors. - Jess

Jess: You can upload your own logo in Google Apps (for your domain). - Tudor Bosman

Heh. That's nifty. Thanks! - Jess

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little. - Paul W. Swansen

They're bringing CGA back? - Eric

That's almost uglier than Chris Brown beating Rihanna up. - Jeremy Campbell from twhirl

Reminds me of 1993! - Susan Beebe

+1 Eric! - Chris Charabaruk

Its like something out of Kings Quest III, or a menu out of an old Lucas Arts / Sierra game. Kinda like what Eric said, CGA ftmfw. - Nicholas Kreidberg

Good. Now I can get messages from Tom about cool bands. And Tom's so young, too... - Ontario Emperor from fftogo

STOP! - Nakachi

Oooooosh - Moses Kpetigo

This is the second time that I've seen an unrelated comment about a computer virus grounding fighter planes. (Presumably unrelated, unless the virus randomly changes GUI colors or something.) - Ontario Emperor

waited minutes to get registered, vainly. mayby I'll try it later again 'cause a alternative to digsby would be great. - Tobias W.

I wont patronize anything that requires me to download a library like AIR or .net framework - TrafficBug

There is not enough whiskey in the world to deaden the thought of Scoble slow motion running down the beach Baywatch style... so I'm not gonna take the chance :P - Johnny

can i have my 33 seconds back please :) - Allen Stern

Allen, you should post a rebuttal with NY Style pizza or Pastrami. - Louis Gray

Louis, ooh - talk about making me hungry. I'm hungry, but I can't eat anything! (stomach bug) - Jesse Stay from IM

The sandwich looked fresh and tasty, and although I've had a fill of DELICIOUS country BBQ at Sweatman''s for lunch, I am getting hungry again now. I jsut remembered, there is home-made bread in the kitchen NOM NOM. - Ian May

Agreed. That's the real issue. Would Abraham's blog pay for the access needed to make his insights so valuable? Will teams like the Yankees start footing the bill for beat writers to cover the team, which obviously helps market the team? Naturally, that raises a host of other issues. - Peeta

And if newspapers are going to be any kind of organization beyond the reporter you have to pay for his boss, his bosses boss, the building he works in and the infrastructure to support it. If this is true -- then the future is just the past with an an iphone and a blog. - Brian Sullivan

Blogging, micropublishing. All of this is just the writing down and cataloguing of the thoughts and conversations people have been having since the beginning of time. And notification, transmission is instant. The major change I foresee is the migration towards so-called A-listers or Content Editors. - Andrew Ruess from IM

steve, good one...and you are right big opportunities and more and more reporters doing exactly this. I heard that 95% of the top 100 US newspapers have reporters blogging or doing video and Facebook etc...so you can see the trend is on its way - Richard Binhammer

@Richard, exactly. This is covered in my trends paper. See trend #2 - Media Reforestation. - Steve Rubel

Doesn't the newspaper's legacy and brand give him a boost? - Steve Rubel

Jason -- the answer is that there can't be 100 Yankee sports writers - nor can there be 1000++ photographers and reporters sent to the Olympics but even if you cut it down by one or two orders of magnitude and eliminate all other layers of management and infrastructure and cost there probably still is not enough money to made on the web to support this style of reporting(unless you imagine or invent a vastly different structure for flow of money than exists today). - Brian Sullivan

Steve -- how long will the brands of newspapers have any value? If they go belly up I think not very long. - Brian Sullivan

There's no way with today's level of audience that a blogger could make the same amount of money, but if we're assuming that trad. media is going away, won't the readership of blogs go up? Maybe it could work. - Mr. Gunn
