Brett Kelly
Ok, so I built a little tool to batch-unsubscribe from FriendFeed users. It will be styled later, but it does the job. http://ffbatch.brettkelly.org - please test it out and let me know if it breaks :)
Hi Brett, could you contact me via ahmetalpbalkan-gmail.com , please? - Alp
Alp - I'm at b@brettkelly.org if you'd like to chat - Brett Kelly from iPhone
Alp wants to be King of the FF ecosystem :) - Jérôme Flipo from iPhone
how's it work? I'm too scared to enter my username and my remote-key heh - Rudolf Olah
Really? Why? - Brett Kelly from email
ah, yeah, I actually meant to do that before posting it :) - Brett Kelly from IM
I'm just used to sites that show some brief example of how they work, or that have a screenshot or whatever :P - Rudolf Olah
No, don't bother hiding the passphrase. How often are you using something like this from a public computer, or where someone can see your screen? - Michael R. Bernstein
Brett, it would be nice if the tool showed some metrics next to each name (comments, likes, some kind of mutual compatibility or engagement measure) and let you sort by that as well. - Michael R. Bernstein
This is great Brett! Is the source somewhere or is it closed source? - EricaJoy
I may open the source up at some point, but I have large plans for the FF API (not necessarily selling anything, but plans nonetheless). We'll see how it goes :) - Brett Kelly
No worries, what I want to do isn't possible yet anyhow. :) - EricaJoy from IM
What do you want to do? - Brett Kelly
Create a way to subscribe to all subscribers. Subscribers aren't exposed via the API (yet) so this seems either very hard or impossible now. - EricaJoy from IM
To subscribe to all her subscribers http://friendfeed.com/ericajo... - Jérôme Flipo
I said that already. :P - EricaJoy from IM
actually, you could probably scrape somebody's subscribers fairly easily (until the API supports it, anyway). - Brett Kelly from IM
Brett, could your page have a link to the remote key page? Perhaps open the window in a new tab. - Kol Tregaskes
Could the characters for the remote key also be masked? - Kol Tregaskes
Is it possible to select all/none plus select by friends lists? - Kol Tregaskes
Need select all button :) - Live Crunch Blog
what's my remote key? - BEX
BEX, you'll see it by going here (you have to be logged in of course): http://friendfeed.com/remotek... - Micah Wittman
