I noticed that as well, and there is not an option to change the view. =( - John Tyra

perhaps plurk would be better for this?! - acedanger

But it does work well for identifying hot topics. One option is to attach comments to an item and use the comments as a timeline. - Ontario Emperor via fftogo

Yah, we should fix this, especially for events like this. - Bret Taylor

Plurk is frustrating if you are following more than a few dozen ppl. - Rafe Needleman

Bret, when is FF getting Plurk support? - Rafe Needleman

Bret, how would you "fix"? - Ontario Emperor via fftogo

Offer the ability to sort things by date published I think is the simplest way. - Bret Taylor

Perhaps a room based setting that admins can set; "do not bump entries" - Benjamin Golub

i actually like this feature because the interesting stuff bubbles to the top. - Seth Gottlieb via twhirl

Bret, I agree. Two views - by date or by last comment - would be plenty. - Delete Me

God I love Web 2.0! Market research at its best! - Stanton Champion

Simple is good. - Ontario Emperor via fftogo

I actually had success just following the main "Friends" feed because you catch all the new posts there, and it's close to a "newest first" at least. I still don't get Plurk. - Jesse Stay
