Yes, what happened? - Hao Chen
I want it back too... :( - Chris Thomson
It will be down for a little while we fix a small bug. Should be back soon... - Ross Miller
Glad to hear it. Thanks for the update Ross. - Justin Korn
Nice... I thought this was another symptom of Firefox asking to be restarted. Glad it ain't. :) - felix
I Wanna back too !! - Peter Dawson
I am still not seeing timestamp on comment. This sucks -why ? I like to check if its a stale thread or not before replying. It helps when engaging other users in a convo. If I comment on something thats stale, the chances that the user will response is slime. Jus my 2 cents -- (4 the time being !) :)- - Peter Dawson
The small bug comment was a couple of days ago ( though without the feature that is hard to verify ;-)). Maybe the bug was bigger than first thought? - Brian Sullivan
I was just wondering about this too...Ross Miller: Any update?? - Justin Korn
yeah that was pretty sweet. - The Kid
Any news on this timestamp thing? I've been away from FriendFeed for 7 days, and I miss the timestamps on posts. It'd be really nice as I scan old posts to see if the discussions are semi-recent or all from 7 days ago. - Mitchell Tsai
FF people seem to have gone silent -- no posting about anything FF feature/bug related for a long time. Heads down doing stuff or ...? - Brian Sullivan
Reason for the lack of feedback: lack of feedback from FF developers? Possibly. - Sean McBride
I want it back as well! - Ben Parr
Sorry guys... I'm hoping it comes back soon as well! - Ross Miller
Basically it was just too prominent at launch. Hovering over any of the comment brought up the tooltip. Scaling it back to just popping up over the comment bubble is the plan but there's stuff ahead of it on the priority list. In the meantime we just turned it off because it was too distracting. It'll be back soonish. :-) - Kevin Fox
why don't you just keep it on untill you change the way it appears? i liked the way it worked... i didn't find it distracting! - Alessandro
any possibility of when you restore it you do it like fftogo and add it after the user name on the comment? - Globecode
The timestamp is back! Just hover over the comment icons. Thanks Ross and Kevin! - Ole Begemann
Yes... The timestamp now hides beneath the comment bubble :-) - Ross Miller
Thank you! - Anne Bouey
ahh, it's better with the comment icon hover, nice. - Steve Isaacs
yeah, we got something back! Thanks FF, you're the best! - Justin Korn
