My entries/posts seem to have received less interaction/engagement since the new design was rolled out. I didn't actually count (and it's been a short timeframe), but it just feels like there is less response from the people who are following me.

That being said, real-time is almost too real-time. I know I'm missing a lot, and pausing it doesn't help as much as I thought it would. Yes, yes, I need to enable better filtering, but I'm losing motivation.

The whole design just seems really counterintuitive and Twitter-like.

I think it takes little bit of time to get used to, but I think real-time is a great tool if you set up your list correctly.

Just realized the one thing that really makes me not like this design is no longer having the service icons anymore. That was always really nice, because I could see a list of Twitter posts and skip right over those.

I find that the real-time updating has me missing a lot of stuff. I'm not comfortable with the new UI yet because I didn't play much with the beta. Once people figure out which settings work best for them I'm sure conversations will get back to normal.

Jon, if you want to filter out Twitter entries you can use "-service:twitter" in the search field.

I don't you really "miss" anything in real time (or by pausing) -- at least not more than the old interface which refreshed automatically every few minutes and pushed stuff out of view pretty quickly. There are more mechanisms for finding and sorting information than there were before so I think the potential for *not* missing stuff is better now.

I always *want* to comment on my likes, but I find that the real time gives me ADD. I.e., "Oh! Shiny! Like! wheresthecommentlink Oh! New shiny! Like! wheresthe- OHOHOH! LOL! LIKE!" :-) I do kind of put my trust in the groupmind to bubble the interesting stuff back to the top though, and that's one of the reasons I am really enjoying Friendfeed.
