"Photographers are busy people. So too are our clients. More so than ever before we have an abundance of information available to us at the click of a mouse. It’s always evolving; full of opportunity and at times, a little overwhelming." - Kol Tregaskes from Bookmarklet

It will. Already it has become 5x more interesting because now it's not just a copy of Twitter that I'm seeing. - Robert Scoble

Michael, correct :-) - Jesse Stay

"OK, Google Buzz has been out several months now (you can see my Google Buzz items on my Google profile page). When it first came out lots of people tried it. But they just as quickly went away. I know, I have 10,000 people following me there but many haven’t been back since the early weeks. Plus, Google got a lot of bad PR because when you setup that service it shared your social graph publicly. One problem: Google Buzz’s social graph is based on the one you built up inside Gmail. That’s potentially troublesome. Google fixed that problem after a few days, letting you hide your social graph, among other fixes, but that bad aftertaste still exists. For a while it seemed like the service was going to be a ghost town. But lately it’s been coming back. I’m getting more engagement on my items there than on Twitter or Facebook. Personally it’s more fun, but more on that in a second. Why is it coming back?" - Kol Tregaskes from Bookmarklet

Deleted the annoying spam! - Kol Tregaskes

Oh wait, just gone here: http://apps.facebook.com/friendf... and said it had a problem. I've clicked on Fix the problem link so will see if that works. - Kol Tregaskes

It appears so Halil. - Kol Tregaskes

I had the same problem time ago - ★Kristy

How did you solved it, Kristy? I clicked on the link to solve it but it didn't work ;( - Thierry R. Andriamirado

I still have this problem. Is it a setting or is something broken? - Cosmin Lehene

You didn't read the facebook page for the app showing where all the new things got moved to beforehand. :P - John Wang

This is a typical iPhone app. Though it's a third party app for the iPhone.. It inherits lots of feature of iPhone.. - Mohammad Abdurraafay

"If you receive a Facebook mail today with the subject line “CoooL Video”, don’t click the link. We’re getting reports of a Facebook scam which causes infected users to unknowingly send out Facebook mails to their friends containing that subject line. The links in the mails go to various places, including a blogspot blog (see screenshot below). Of course, clicking the link earns you an unpleasant dose of malware. Facebook, to give credit where due, is becoming increasingly proficient at stomping out such scams: the last one to cause issues was around two months ago." - Susan Beebe from Bookmarklet

Is it still something to look out for? - Michael Fidler

Click it so it pops up, click settings, click go offline. It will remember that setting :) Will auto put you online again if you click the bar again though. - Simon Wicks

OMG thanks! I never liked being bothered there. - Marci Golub

"As every other FriendFeeder out there, I wanted to start the slow and painful migration from FriendFeed to Facebook (ironically FriendFeed staffers are moving as well) and of course, it’s been a rocky ride so far. I don’t feel quite as home, and the lack of real time kills me at times, but I wanted to share with you how I’ve managed to make an initial comfortable nest on the new tree. - Kol Tregaskes

"If it wasn’t bad enough that Facebook bought FriendFeed on Monday and turned on real-time search to better compete against Twitter in the Stream Wars, and is playing around with a lite version that resembles Twitter even more, now Twitter really has something to worry about. Facebook is growing faster than Twitter in the U.S., even though it is more than four times larger. In the month of July, according to the latest estimates from comScore, Facebook attracted 87.7 million unique visitors in the U.S., which was 14 percent higher than in June, 2009. Twitter, in contrast, only saw 21.2 million unique U.S. visitors to its Website, a 6 percent rise compared to the month before. In absolute terms, Facebook added about ten million new visitors in the month of July versus roughly one million new visitors for Twitter. At 87.7 million uniques, Facebook moves from the sixth largest Web media property in the U.S. to the fifth, passing the combined sites of Fox Interactive Media (80.9 million... more... - Susan Beebe from Bookmarklet

and I could still delete my Facebook account tomorrow - George Dearing from BuddyFeed

..or else I'll do with Linux distros: when it's fucked, it's fucked: let's forget it, live goes on. - Thierry R. Andriamirado

Paul and Mark just became "friends" on facebook - awesome to watch this unfold :) - Susan Beebe

"A Georgian blogger with accounts on Twitter, Facebook, LiveJournal and Google's Blogger and YouTube was targeted in a denial of service attack that led to the site-wide outage at Twitter and problems at the other sites on Thursday, according to a Facebook executive. The blogger, who uses the account name "Cyxymu," (the name of a town in the Republic of Georgia) had accounts on all of the different sites that were attacked at the same time, Max Kelly, chief security officer at Facebook, told CNET News. "It was a simultaneous attack across a number of properties targeting him to keep his voice from being heard," Kelly said." - Thierry R. Andriamirado from Bookmarklet

So.. we didn't know this Georgian blogger. Now, the whole world know him and is awaiting for those attacks against him to stop in order to be able to work! - Thierry R. Andriamirado

The connection is that both situations are annoying. - Chrissie M

Twitter has been down for 2 hours already now, and Facebook has gone too shortly ago! - Flavio

I'll go for FriendFeed, Facebook is a social networking site though. - Vince Ong

Do they they really want us to be on Facebook all day long, just to manage our inboxes? Frustrating! - Thierry R. Andriamirado
