Though, that really doesn't help with making it happen IN friendfeed... - Justin Korn
It's gotta be a simple factor of how the feed is being processed. Seems like other media is picked up just fine...except for 12seconds (not blaming 12seconds, just saying it soudns like a more basic issue that could help future services as well) - ♫ Rahsheen™
I have never known a Mac user to have as many problems with their Mac as you do with yours. Hope you get it fixed. - David Howell
I prefer the Mac. Part of it is that I tend to document the problems. Most people probably have a crash and just reboot nad keep going. It was unusual to have the Mac crash three times in a day though. No other crashes like that since I got it. - Steve Garfield

I know exactaly how much. I downloaded the MeeTimer plugin for FF. - Sonciary Honnoll
i moved almost completely off of twitter. i still set off a tweet here and there when the subject is not FF worthy; like "I'm drinking my protein shake by the pool". All in all its alot more interesting on FF. - Carlos Ayala
I tried Twitter and didn't like it. Since starting FF, I hate to admit it, I actually like FF. It is sort of like a group instant messaging utility. - Herschel
Since I used RescueTime for a week, I have reduced all my soc net time down drastically. - Sally Church
I don't waste my time on twitter anymore. I spend all my time on FF; that's where the conversations are. - John Budnik
Well, most of the people I follow on twitter are here, so I turned off device updates on twitter. And as for the rest, twitter has not been sending me IM's for a few weeks now. So outside a short twit now and then, or my script posting what I'm listing... I'm not wasting much time on twitter. - Grant Bierman
None at all. Just FF. Anyone worth talking tech with on the internet is here on FF. We could use a bigger crowd, but for now this is where it's at. - Friend Feed's Tad
not enough, although most of my time is wasted on Friendfeed these days - ♜ Bjorn Tipling
better question should be how much time are you wasting on the internet - Dan Rockwell
via twhirl
I don't consider any of it wasted. I get a lot of great links and information from Twitter/FF posts, and I've seen/participated in a lot of interesting discussions as a result of those links. That's never a waste. - eve shot first
Well, I used to waste a lot of time. But since I got Twhirl, no time gets wasted. It is a marvelous tool. - Rodrigo Leme

I think an interesting related question is, "what are you accomplishing on Twitter? " - Brian Wilson
I use little twitter, more FF and fftogo lately. I'm not a techie so I hope to not bore folks as I try to broaden my geekish horizons :) - kbourke
I use Twitter for communcating with some clients, and also now use Twhirl. - Ian May

"gmail expects the same respect as outlook" - tell that to the Corporate IT .. and see what the response is !! - Peter Dawson
I wrote about RescueTime when they first launched, but I never dared to try it myself for what it might find :-) To answer the headline question: hardly any at all now. - Duncan Riley
I mostly use Twitter in bits of time between more meaningful tasks. Standing in line, waiting, switching between tasks, etc. - Jack Collins
I have a blackberry and I live in Canada. There is no easy way now to read/follow twitter since the IM feature is gone; I used to read twitter via google talk. I find that twitterberry and m.twitter don't allow me to read more than a page or the past hour and using SMS is painful. Every 250 messages I need to delete my mobile number online and re-add it or I would have to wait a week for new messages. I read it when I'm on the go or need a break from my writing. - Phillip Jeffrey
I waste more time on friendfeed a lot more than twitter because of how much more content is available - Justin
I use time very wisely on Twitter - no more than 30 mins/day actively. Scans messages while it runs in background on Twhirl. - Jim Turner
via twhirl
i rarely use twitter, but i wouldn't say that it's because of ff. necessarily. it's just become unreliable as well as "spammy" - Cee Bee
Next to none since friendfeed. Loving me some friendfeed! - joshua fouts
None. I'm wasting my time on friendfeed instead :) - Ryo
I would love to use Twitter and Friendfeed more - if only they were more mainstream here in Australia. - Jim Yiapanis
Isn't Twitter like breathing? I don't stop breathing. - Carolyn Chan
via twhirl
I think I'll be wasting a lot of time on FF, only because it offers you more real estate than twitter. That and the fact that I never know when, and if, twitter will be online! - Dukeswharf
via twhirl
Great app, helped me cut my social shennanigans under an hour a week. - Sean Oliver
i use twitter a lot since it helps me connect with real people and real solutions. the conversations on friendfeed are ones that drive the thought process and creativity though . - Fuad Arshad
Sounds like a great tool, though it vaguely sounds like a rip-off of something else. I don't consider my Twitter/FF time wasted though. I learn so much in the course of goofing off, and save so much time venting rather than stewing in my own frustration that it's a wash. - tinu
It's nice that they have the API limit moving up, but it still doesn't offer the response time that I desire. When I'm on Twitter, I'm interacting rapidly with people, and I have a lot of stuff flowing by very quickly. I need GTalk integration to work again. Updated right away, without the need for a client to request updates, and I can respond right away. Anything less and my Twitter use is too frustrating.

That was a good use of ten minutes. I'm smiling again. - Russellreno
Ok, after watching the new YSAP - This is much much better - flavor of the week to be sure. - Vince DeGeorge

You mean he rebooted the webserver without submitting a Change Request Application with work procedure and rollback steps to the Change Advisory Board for review at their next weekly meeting? ;-) - Stuart Woodward
:)) I was getting very frustrated with FF's best of the day page, showing mostly meta-links about FF itself all the time. And then this. Once in a while, there is one single link that makes all these page loads worth it :) - Yaniv Golan
LMAO for most of the 10 min. Will fwd to several IT peeps I know...and maybe a few peeps at Twitter. Wonder if they'll think it's funny. - Cathryn Hrudicka
The realism of this thing is just awe-inspiring. That techie behave pretty much like any techie I've ever encountered who's been asked to do a stupid task. And the sales dude is lethally real too. This is Dilbert meets The Office on steroids. Thanks for the link. - Roy Blumenthal

Are there any invites for Jaiku? - Vaughn
via twhirl
They now have a US short code... I used Jaiku many months ago and forgot about it. Checked on it b/c of this post and see you can now use the short code 30300. Anyone know of any tools for Jaiku? - Bob
It's the whole lack of apps for me. Twitter and FF have easy apps. Jaiku? - Tris Hussey
I think I like the Twiter abuse... - Kurt
via twhirl
I always preferred Jaiku over Twitter too - but the masses went to Twitter, which kind of ended the argument. - Jonathan Beckett
anyone have any invites they want to share? - Glen Stansberry
I like Friend feed Feedalizr it does like twhirl and works relatively well!!...via feedalizr - Paul
I need to get on this Jaiku business! Invites, anyone? - Shirley
jaiku is nice but no one is there, same problem with pownce. when twitter realizes that they are a platform thats when changes will happen - sam
via twhirl
I spent some time on Jaiku. I liked the way they do message threading until FF started rockin this new style. I'll stick with FF, Brightkite and Twitter for now. - Clay Newton
Leave your email address here or email me at vincent at vx dot tc for an invite. - Vincent X
leo it works because no one is using it! twitter needs to scale and then it will work fine - BCK
