The Reshare command in FF, it seems to me, shouldn't create a copy, rather should add the item to my flow, at the top of the list, and any comments that appear in either place would be seen in both.

I discuss the issues of copies vs references in this Scripting News piece. It's a big issue these days. It's understandable that copies must be made when things move among silos, but within a silo why not deal in pointers?

I don't use the reblog for that very reason. - Russellreno

Interesting. - Hao Chen

Agreed - I'd like the comments to port over. - Hutch Carpenter

Why not just "like" the original story? Has the same end effect. If someone wants to see everything you liked, they can check out your "likes" page. - Mark Trapp

one area that I've wished this for is for re-sharing into a relevant room, be nice to have a single thread. - felix

Ole, there is a fair amount of software, all around us, everywhere you look in fact! - Dave Winer

Whoa, "like" does what? I've liked lots of things but they don't go on my output queue do they? How could I have missed that. - Dave Winer

Both "like" and "comment" exposes the story to all your subscribers. It's Friendfeed's killer feature. - Mark Trapp

Dave - good discussion about that very feature happening now: http://friendfeed.com/e... - Hutch Carpenter
