Does Google’s Acquisition of Picnik Suggest That Google’s Picasa is Getting Ready to Seriously Challenge Yahoo’s Flickr Photo Sharing Site? | Thomas Hawk Digital Connection - http://thomashawk.com/2010...

picassa better improves the tagging process (notification) and integration with google contacts - facebook photos are so much better in regard to that.
- Chris Hofmann
Wow that's huge! Will Flickr continue to partner with Picnik?! How would that play out!
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Picassa lacks social features but one thing that I do like very much is its inline Google Translate features - it's very nifty as it translates all the comments that's not written in your language to your language default.. and as such allows me to respond to comments from Russia with ease :)
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Flickr says yes I think.
- Kol Tregaskes
This has got to be the first time I see Yahoo partnering with Google on the product side (aside from search) am I right?
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Interesting theory. Picasa ready to take on Flickr?

Doubt Piscsa can take up Flickr 4 now til they improve on the storage limits, accessibility, social networks, and more biz friendliness.

Because one of the real things I did with FriendFeed was to hold real time interactive blogging sessions. IE, chat. Like here, like now. But now I don't need FriendFeed for that, so I will move it to JS-Kit.

- Travis B. Hartwell
Travis: yup. We have JS-Kit Echo running over at http://building43.com. Good stuff.
- Robert Scoble
My one question about this -- and maybe you can answer for me Chris -- if I integrate JS-Kit into my blog using the javascript method, Google won't be able to index comments on my site. Is that correct? If so, does JS-Kit offer an API so I can pull those down statically to serve to Google? Or what's the solution?
- Travis B. Hartwell
Yes we have a solution for SEO support - deets here: http://wiki.js-kit.com/Admin+G...

If ECHO was going to stand up on its own, I don't think it would need fabricated buzzwords like "social gestures." Please.
- Mark Pannell
Gestures are an old notion from the Attention days Mark
- Chris Saad
Thanks, Chris ;-)
- Brad Williamson
Chris, do you notice any confusion among bloggers as to difference between the initial JS-Kit comment system and the new Echo?
- Majento
Not really Majento - there is a little table that compares the two down the bottom of the home page - they are very different
- Chris Saad
Chris, i hear you about the website. I mean online in general, when JS-Kit is mentioned. I've used both as a commenter so i know how big the difference is. Echo adds tons of spice.
- Majento
We've found very little confusion actually - people seem to really understand that 'Echo' is not 'Commenting'
- Chris Saad
And the difference will only become more and more apparent
- Chris Saad
Does JS-Kit ECHO allows for re-export of comments?
- Paul Papadimitriou
Yes you can export the whole lot in one batch - but we also sync the comments to wordpress or blogger in real-time so you can just rip it off at any time
- Chris Saad
Will I still see your blog comments on FF?
- Leigh Marriner
@Chris, it's a constant sync? That is amazing.
- Paul Papadimitriou
Chris, I do not see any realtime synching happening on my blogs - all comments reside in Echol not in my own blog.....
- Jeroen De Miranda
I hear DISQUS v3 is gonna wipe JS-Kit out of the commenting space...
- Nikolay Kolev

- brainno722 (Peter)
I would echo (no pun intended ;) what Jeroen said - I couldn't get ECHO to import/sync native WP comments on my (self-hosted) blog. Chris, I put a question on getsatisfaction 6 days ago http://support.js-kit.com/jskit...
- Micah
Hi Jeroen & Micah - can u both please post your site URLs to this thread and I will have someone smarter than me help out http://support.js-kit.com/jskit... - the comments should sync in real time
- Chris Saad
@Nikolay & Brain - Disqus 3 looks awesome! The two are quite different products though and will only diverge more over time. It comes down to the kind of blogger you are and what matches your needs. There's more than enough room in the market for both approaches.
- Chris Saad
Robert : on all the new posts at http://www.building43.com/blogs... there is no place for comments at all
- Johni Fisher
Thanks, Chris. :)
- Micah
Chris, this is the Dutch blog http://www.ambtenaar20.nl ('Civil Servant 2.0') - the synchronization issue has been solved by your time today; thanks for the great support!
- Jeroen De Miranda
My pleasure - we're also putting together a comparison chart of the top features, and a full feature list of Echo to help people choose the platform that makes sense for them http://wiki.js-kit.com/Feature...
- Chris Saad
Chris, might be an idea to state more clearly in the documentation and/or feature list that you do synchonize fully with WP.... took some effort to find that functionality.... It is an important function.
- Jeroen De Miranda
Ok are you aware of how the other platforms handle this so I can be accurate? I welcome other feedback and contributions to the wiki page as well (of course)

Jim: I don't recognize most of the names of people who've followed me in the past week.

For instance, on Dopplr about half of the people who follow me there are people I've actually met face to face. In Google Reader, this week's new bunch is closer to 1%.

The "like" move was really smart. Based on one week of stats, a lot more people are likely to like a feature (compare to shared and shared with notes). Regarding search + follow, it is a great step forward compared to the 2 way handshake which was in place. Future will tell if people want to create yet another graph or use friendfeed + twitter. If I had to guess, I would say that friendfeed is the best solution.

The slow factor is due to the fact that it tracks "mark as read" which changes the nature of the back end beast. Which as you point out can add a 1-2s per query if you have 500+ feeds.
- Edwin Khodabakchian
Edwin: most of the slowness I'm seeing is in adding new friends to Google Reader. Horridly slow.

Good point. This is because even if it allows asymmetric follow, the Google Reader platform was not designed for more than 500-1000 following (sources and friends included). This is one more reason why friendfeed is a better sharing and conversation platform
- Edwin Khodabakchian
I am back using Chrome and Reader after a stint with Firefox and Feedly. Part of the reason for coming back was the new sharing capabilities.

But developers seem to move toward platforms that have a few things: 1. Users. 2. A decent chance of monetizing. 3. That do something unique. 4. That are open and/or resharable 5. Simple and consistent. If FriendFeed can do those things with an API it would be most impressive.

I wish I could let you all see @secretscoble without opening it up. I gotta figure that one out, because the Tweet stream there is magic!

Hey! Could you send me an invite?
- Tyler (Chacha)
Nope. I am only inviting people I've met face-to-face and who I want to follow. I'm already following you here on FriendFeed, though, which is even better.
- Robert Scoble
that makes complete sense... so after your jaunt across the ocean head over here to Hawaii :-)

Isn't it a little rude to refer to hidden feeds? As they used to tell us at NSA, true secrets are those shared with no one.
- Jack&Cleo
Jack, it is very rude to talk about a secret group, but that's one of the things I'm studying too. Humans are fun to study. SEO types are going crazy over trying to get into this account, by the way.
- Robert Scoble
Robert, really, I'm just going to say this just once - repeatedly talking about your "secret feed" is ridiculous. It completely looks like an 11yo trying to grab attention and prove he's a "popular" kid. You admit it's completely rude to talk about hidden feeds, and yet you justify it because "I'm studying humans," which is another arrogant and incredibly rude thing to say (you do not refer to people as subjects, ever). Scoble, for someone with your accomplishments, I expected better character...

Just open it up, let us follow @SecretScoble, but refuse to follow us back, whats the big deal?

They trade Scoble nudes like baseball cards in there. That's the word on the street.
- Geoff Schultz {TF}
I can see your use of the secretscoble account to be very simalar to my use if twitter. I have started to put a cap on the people I follow, rather than blindly following everyone back, about 60% of the people in my twitter stream I have met in person, and about 20% are people I hope to meet. I have found I start missing things important to me if I go over 450. I do respond to every...

Ben: sorry, every Twitter company is studying Twitter's users. Every single damn one. If that's rude to do, then go postal on all the Twitter developers. Mark: it's a big deal because I want to talk with a very specific audience there, not with everyone. I am studying how that changes my writing, or what I want to do. In my research of how normal people use the Internet they want...

Hmmmm... I think I was following that account on my old @freddavis account... another hassle with Twitter never giving me my account back... add me as @fucktwitter, or just follow me here ;-)
- Fred Davis
So in other words, you're finally experimenting with "the friends are the filter"... you know, the method that you were absolutely insistent wasn't as good as "follow everyone" a while ago? I'm not going to say "I told you so" but... I told you so :)
- Ian Betteridge
Great friends can be the best filters and can allow you to get a much cleaner stream of what's happening than following everyone - same story with RSS feeds - I think Ian is quite right, but maybe you are onto something different Robert...
- Robin Good
Robin, I think we're actually both right: a lot depends on what you're looking to use your feed for. Robert uses his quite differently to the way that I use it. I don't care about 99.99% of the stuff which comes up enough to need to know about it *right now* - Michael Jackson's death being a classic example. But there are certain things that I do want to know about now, and those tend to be the kinds of things that friends would pass on.
- Ian Betteridge
You could do a quick mashup on your site that could authenticate with twitter and show the home feed for @secretscoble on that page to everyone, without them having to join. Couple of issues with that, though. It would also show tweets from people whom @secretscoble follows who otherwise have protected feeds. Also, basic HTTP authentication b/w your server and Twitter - not very secure.
- sameer
just take screen shots from time to time if you want to make a point about what you are seeing there. then get your friends' permission, and write a blog post about it.
- Laura Norvig
I would keep it that way scoble
- polou/indigo_bow
@secretscoble yes it is -
- Kevin Tunis
Bob Plunk have you been on the sauce? Just add the people he follows to your account and you have a replica of @SecretScoble. I promise you Robert is not saving all his pearls of wisdom for that twitter account. He isn't tweeting revelations that will change the world on his alternate account. It's just some experiment he is running on things such as how much attention people pay to invites.

Until you figure it out, I'll use your SUL as a filter to find interesting streams I am not currently following.
- Alberto Saavedra
Twitter should just display posts from everyone you are following in a stream, just like they should allow anyone to sample someones followers. Basic.

No love for flash 10.0 r22 on linux. Black video. :(

How many eyeballs do you have?
- Craig Brownell
Steve, the audio on the Qik site works fine for me. I do get black on the embedded version - guess I need a flash upgrade.

The video was blank for me here as well. Using Windows XP with Google Chrome [updated today]. Was able to watch on the Qik site. Great video Robert ;)

I have the latest flash player... theres still no video here.. however I can watch it on the qik.com site.

No video in there.
- Alex Sauceda
Also black video on the embed here.

If you use the Qik link instead you won't see the blank video. I think the problem is on the FF side.
- Alexander Grundner
I'm torn between thinking - "that is awesome" and "what's the point?". For Scoble it makes sense as his job depends on keeping up with all this and commentating on it. For the rest of us, not so sure this realtime river of news is really where the future is taking us.
- Barak B
Love this video. You gave me an idea on utilizing feeds on a vertical screen

Apparently, Scoble either wastes his time watching 3 friendfeed columns instead of writing a new book or revising Naked Conversations (in real time) OR he just showed us how the job looks like for some community managers.

...Scoble, i am as realtime nuts as u with 65 soc news monitors therefore it irritates me that the new friendfeed doesn't allow realtime button-refresh twitter updates into the feed - or i was too stupid to find the icons. it also s*ks that u cant add all u old icons to make automatic refreshes in case there is some glitch. anyone else can help out in case scoble is busy ?
- ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
I read somewhere that Scoble singe-handedly save (or something to that effect) FF. Now I can see how. Thanks for sharing this. Btw, I also got black screen here, but fine video in Qik, using OSX/Firefox.

ewing: I have no idea what you are asking for. Tweets come here within seconds. Seems real time to me, why do you need a button update?

interesting.. Scoble is watching the world in his war room.. :D
- Pico Seno
Proves once again how sorely track (realtime search alerts) is lacking. The setup as it is now is better divided between right and left eye serving corresponding brain hemispheres. The streams then should be tweaked in accordance with brain hemisphere functional/cognitive asymmetry; the result would be hyper-realtime web/personality blend leading to eventual zombiefication and madness :-)
