is twitter as much of a distraction as IM?
No, because when someone posts on Twitter I'm not interrupted
- Aaron Myers
Awesome point! I did not think of this and you are totally on key. Therefore...twitter is not a disruption to my day job :) hahaha
- Chris Salazar
I wish there was a new tab in FriendFeed: "close friends." Instead, I'm opening a new FriendFeed account to see what life is like when you only have a few friends.

I think you will get this. Ana hinted at "good friends" in one of her updates. And third party apps like FriendFeedMachine offer this today.

It'll absolutely come - we just have to be patient. They can only last so long on hot pockets, coffee, or whatever else they eat while they code...
- Ben Parr
let me save you the trouble, its kind of like being ignored half the time
- Chris Conway
I'd love to see this implemented so that you can "group" your friends.
- Jeff Smigel
Try ignoring this account for a week and just log onto the private one -- enjoy the peace. :)
- Robert Couture
Agree with Jeff... I'd like a tab with tech friends and non-tech friends, meat-space friends, work friends, amusing friends, etc. So I could have different "flavors" of FriendFeed depending on my mood.
- Lindsay is in 20-ten
cool idea!
- Susan Beebe
I just signed in. What was amazing was there was someone following me before I even completed the process. I guess she must have added me off of my other email address. Weird.
- Robert Scoble
Could creating a room to put your 'real' friends be an option?
- Michael
I agree with Jeff. Moreover to be able to define groups/tabs like "close friends," "colleauges," etc., and give each group a priority in terms of displaying contents and have FF somehow displaying according to priority of those groups/tabs.
- Hayk H.
I'm using FriendFeed Filters: Friends & Groups (http://ffapps.com/filters/) exactly for the "close friends" purpose and it's all right. In my case, one wish saved :)
- Dani Radu
or nudge tweetdeck to support FF so you could group your collegues into a different stream!

I'd LOVE to be able to favorite FF users I read most so I could see their stuff at the top of my pile. :)
- Leslie Poston
I'd like "favorite users" in different tabs. And the different groups. Also like to have a clipboard tab, where "clipped" users/articles stay (and I can follow them) and are removed from the "friends" tab (temporarily).
- Mitchell Tsai
i also think that there is enough space for additional (custom) tabs here
- Dieter Schwarz
I would definitely like to see this feature added! I like Lindsay's suggestion to have several tabs with groups of friends.
- Jeff P. Henderson
I've been wanting friend groups for a while, just so I can filter things quicker.
- xero
Great idea, group friends and/or related tabs. An idea I've had for a while was "Friend Weight" where as a friend is slower to leave the front page or be buried down. Who knows what's up FriendFeed's sleeves?
- Colby Olson
Friendfeed should simply let you privately rate all relationships on a 1 to 10 scale. You could then filter FF by these numerical ratings. It would also be useful information for them to use when they come out with their "best of the day, week, month, etc." algorithm based on social metadata and personal relevancy.
- Thomas Hawk
do you find that your friends list on twitter is different from friendfeed? at least for me, friendfeed has some of my closer friends and/or people who's content I follow everyday, whereas twitter has just about anyone.
- Chris Salazar
If I tried that, I'd never see FriendFeed update as only two of my close friends use it and neither of them use it that much except to mainly comment.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I've been dreaming of the same thing. I don't want to get rid of the "friend of" concept all together; I find lots of good stuff that way. But there are times i wish i could switch over to a subset of people quickly. Maybe two new tabs? "just friends" and "close friends" ?
- Jeff (the マクダジ of FF)
It would be great if : 1 - one could limite the update to connected people (and not receiving updates of friend of a friend - eventhough this info could be accessible somewhere), or may be I missed something here, 2 - create lists of friends (like family, work, techy which would be displayed as tabs)
- Olivier
this sounds like a job for @directeur and noiseriver ;)
- Ruben Llibre
Think we need Super-Likeys too
- Charlie Anzman
there could be an acquaintances tab? no? I would follow more people if I could filter it a little more, regardless of the system applied. Sometimes I want to see what some folks are saying/doing and sometimes I want to get a little adventurous. While we are at it, for finding new people to follow you could have FOAFOAF... maybe not.
- Scott Lockhart
you could have just borrowed mine Robert!

ESME solves that problem

Friendfeed should pull a Twitter and aquire some of the better apps.
- Roberto Bonini
NO! I don't want FF pulling a Twitter. FF is fail whale free, let's keep it that way :)
- Jeff (the マクダジ of FF)
Agree I would follow more people with this tab but I try and keep to feeds that particularly interest me (ie photography-related in my case)
- Kol Tregaskes
from twhirl
I would like this as well. :) They can call it the BFF tab! :)
- Daynah
I would love the idea of grouping friends.
- Bob Blunk
Hey Robert... how is Day 1 with your super secret new FF account? Like it? Learn anything you care to share with us? Thx!
- Susan Beebe
Susan: I am back to my real account. I like the noise. :-)
- Robert Scoble
It's a good idea... make it reputation based, or use some other criteria.
- Bill Sodeman
id like a tab ,, "needsagirlfriend"
- johnpiercy
The friend / close friend dynamic is one that no social networking/media site I've seen has quite ever gotten exactly right. If anyone can do it, I would bet on FF !
- Eric Berlin
FriendFeed needs an additional tab (as does Twitter, Identi.ca, and others) allowing you to show posts from only "favorited" friends. I am currently doing this with RSS, but IMO that's a hack.
- Jesse Stay
Heh - just realized I was commenting the exact same thing you were saying in the post - need to read better. ;) Consider it a me too++
- Jesse Stay
I do not like the idea of "close friends" as defined by any application. A generic grouping mechanism is more helpful because you can create your "close friends" group, and you can create a "techies" group or whatever else you desire. I am actually surprised that FF does not have it already given that rooms have been around for a while.
- Rob Diana
@Robert, why does it not surprise me that you went back to your real account? Good to see that you are experimenting though.
- Rob Diana
I would rather have Close Friends that the current Subscriptions listing on the sidebar of my personal page
- Mark Dykeman
Robert: Wow, that was fast! I was wondering how long you'd stay away from the firehouse of cool noise! :-)
- Susan Beebe
I was kind of sad to see Robert split off with a second account, and uncomfortable with the possibility of others following. I'm having a great time learning from and interacting with everyone, and honored to be able to do so. Welcome back, and thanks!

I was asked for a review on a job applicant- and she was an IT Director that treated me like s**t needlessly, as a contractor a few years before. It all comes around.

- Sean Dunn
My manager and I were just talking about this. A company that shares offices with us just installed video cams to spy on their employees. They are so completly demoralized and down, it's heart wrenching. They will remember the guy who took this decision and how he treated them especially when they were working weekends and nights. Needless to say, now they are more 9-5 and are probably bidding their time till another job comes along.

It might make sense to introduce your “Discussion” link that shows what you like and where you comment. For FriendFeed newbies, not everything is crystal clear right away. http://friendfeed.com/jowyang... And I hope you keep blogging. It’s more fun if you do both!
- Louis Gray
The trouble with friendfeed instead of a blog is its ephemeral nature: friendfeed is a series of disconnected comments made on a selection of articles passing through the firehose. Each comment may have been part of an interesting conversation at that moment, certainly. Yet when you go back through your friendfeed history in a few months it won't represent a collected body of work like a blog would, it will instead be a series of random musings.
- DGentry
@Denton But few people go back in history to look at these musings. FriendFeed is river of info. It is hyper-current and that's the real value. In fact, it's also a good way to spot trends about the future.
- Mike Reynolds
for some reason i believe that friend friend will bring out more interactive and interesting conversations than blogs (this is overall). i seem to think that some bloggers create posts just to create them and keep activity...rather than really writing stuff that is interesting, leading edge, and current. of course, this is on a general basis...but on friend friend you can start a conversation with just a question, whereas on a blog...u gotta really write some interesting stuff and get ur audience excited.
- Chris Salazar
i am a FF newbie and your are right, it is not crystal clear to me. Hard to find people to friend in my interest area. maybe one of you can help me understand better. I like to talk about retail technology. why? our industry needs to embrace emerging technologies to create great shopping experiences. we need some great tech brains to talk about the ideas..and not vendors!

- chartreuse
I've heard that it's a good "shut down your brain and just enjoy it" kind of movie. True?
- Nathaniel Payne
Liked Wanted, but probably not as high of a rating
- Justin Yost
@jowyang if you liked Wanted, check out Day Watch and Night Watch by Bekmambetov, the director of Wanted. Amazing. Just Amazing.
- Apollo Gonzales
I thought the final line of the movie was one of the best ever
- Marco(aureliusmaximus)
still want to see this! Maybe later this week. Surprised to hear it compared with the Matrix. Huh!
- felix
I thought the whole end of the movie was awesome.... 4.5 stars as well.
- Jon Bishop
Just from these comments I conclude the Angelina character is an imagined person. Okay. Now I do not have to go and see the movie...
- Ruud van Wijngaarden
it had elements of matrix, fight club, blade, and even star wars
- Jeremiah Owyang
WOW, am I the only person who hasn't seen the WANTED? :( Def. need to see it soon

@jeremiah - Wanted is good, but not as good as the first Matrix.
