“I just hid all Twitter entries. Damn, that sure changes FriendFeed into something without as much noise!”

Thief, stole my idea. ;-) - Andrew Dobrow
Now I'm convinced of doing it..... Hey all the cool kids are doing it too! - Gadiel Rivera
YOUR idea??? :) :) - Bwana
HA! Sorry Bwana (backs away sheepishly) - Andrew Dobrow
Hope you didn't hide the comments too Robert. Lots of good conversations start with Tweets. - Chris Rossini
Now you'll never see my twitters! You're not subbed to me over there. (You're not missing much.) - Akiva Moskovitz
@Chris- Thats why I still haven't done it. Update: I have surrender all twits are hidden now. Wanted to ask, Robert how can I get Twitter on Google Chat? - Gadiel Rivera
I just hid all Scoble entries. Damn, that sure changes FriendFeed into something without as much noise! ;) - Brooks Bayne
I'm only doing it for the next day. I already miss all the Tweets. - Robert Scoble
HA! I couldn't help but laugh at that Wolfsbayne :-D (Like I should talk) - Andrew Dobrow
Just did this the other day too, I agree, much cleaner. Still curious why FF doesn't create a way to filter out services. - Ryan W
Ryan, you can filter by service, that's what we're talking about. Hide any post using that service and click for more options. - Andrew Dobrow
Says the one who is causing most of the noise... :) - Alexander Falk
FILTER FILTER FILTER. this is what all our services need but especially Friendfeed. yes that rhymes. i want to filter by person. and filter by service. and filter by person/service. so i could turn off scoble's tweets but not all tweets. or turn off all google reader shares or temporarily mute a person. do it! now! it's been 15 minutes already :) - Baratunde Thurston
Hiding Twitter in FF is cool, but the reality is that there is huge synergy there. Conversatiosn often start on Twitter. - Soulhuntre via twhirl
baratunde: you can already do just about everything you mentioned. - Chris Rossini
I did it to. I am thinking about going back to twhirl not that I don't get dbl scoblizered. :) - Jason Massie
Useful links for public entries: Messages http://friendfeed.com/public?s... Blog http://friendfeed.com/public?s... Google Reader http://friendfeed.com/public?s... Flickr http://friendfeed.com/public?s... That's just some. Click service icons to filter by that service. - Bwana
I've bookmarked the above links to avoid Tweets in the public timeline :D - Bwana
I've only enabled tweets w/ comments or likes figuring that the cream would raise to the top - Sean Reiser
You just killed the most intriguing part of FF. Congrats. - Drew Lucas
@Andrew, you're right, my bad. I've been waiting for this, it's awesome. I was thinking he said he took his own twitter feed out of FF. - Ryan W
I did the same has Sean, but with many of the users blocking out twitter we may never get to discover interesting tweets. - Gadiel Rivera
Just so. Separate feeds for Twitter and FF (Twitter with comments only) makes for a fine mix. - Ashton
Usually (non Twit-out days), I filter just about all Tweets for only those with comments or likes. If I want to discover new tweets, I peruse the public timeline. Otherwise, if I'm that interested in what's going on with Twitter, I go to Twhirl. - Bwana
Let's get this straight. Robert's hiding Twitter noise :) Incredibly sharp photo of ground zero you uploaded to Flickr - Charlie Anzman
how long before everyone from there comes here and the noise is back? - Nancy Babyak
About 20 minutes. :-) - Robert Scoble
Stupid question - where do you do set the filter? - Derek Dysart
oh great, there' goes the happy experience! - Susan Beebe
Derek: you click on the word "Hide" on a Twitter post. - Robert Scoble

Sweet. We'll see how a non twitter day plays out. - Derek Dysart
pfft, like twitter is up and running long enough these days to add a lot of noise - brendan
