Well, give it a good go, and you will love the way it all works, compared to twitter, other than that, it may seem a bit of a lot to deal with at first, but there is so many threads of help and advice here, it won't take long to get to grips with ;o) Welcome by the way... leave hubby outside tho lol.. friendfeed may crash! ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

This site is great ! I love this. This is going to catch on no troubles - Jessica Williams

i don't get this? - Tina Haight

what don't you get Tina? - Rob Sellen :o)

What makes me laugh is that everyone is loving friendfeed all of a sudden, when it's been around for like two years, as awesome as ever. No one knew about it though! I really think it could have been a Twitter killer if the right people joined. - Sam Guzman

i'm not sure- it doesn't tell me who is who - Tina Haight

Really this was around 2 years ago? - Jessica Williams

You are right Sam... it WILL be too... if it stays..IF faceache don't drop it that is ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

is demi seeing this right now? i don't get it. lol - Tina Haight

she can see this if she is watching it - Jessica Williams

so it's just like a chat room? - Tina Haight

tina.. what you mean? - Rob Sellen :o)

Sam, I think all the tweets that generated from here about the Facebook buyout is bringing more people in now. Unfortunately as we know, it's a little too late..but we are going to hang in there... :) - Bill Heslin

NO tina.. its like twitter but in REAL time... and threaded.. demi WILL see this.. then go.. WTF?? how did that happen.. ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

so essentially it is a chat room that mated with twitter? - Jessica Williams

Bill... I think it was PART of the plan.. why techcrunch broke it.. and why they sold to faceache.. ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

Or she is watching this right now going WTF?? and laughing - Jessica Williams

This is great i love this lol - Jessica Williams

Welcome - Alejandro

Ok folks, the difference between friend feed and a chat room is that a chatroom doesn't aggregate all your social media activity. friendfeed pulls in your activity from a bunch of social media sites, like youtube, facebook, twitter, etc. but also provides the functionality of twitter and a chat room. So basically it's your social media life on steroids. Very powerful. - Sam Guzman

Lynn... on the right hand side.. is your friends... - Rob Sellen :o)

demi?!?! lol - Tina Haight

thanks rob & Holden I'll try that - Lynn

Very cool. If you like PostSecret, you should check out www.SecretRegrets.com. - SecretRegrets

I'm still new at this but it's growin on me, thanks for all the help - Lynn

hmmm - Sparkles

jessica... yeah.. but wit till she pops in.. she will go..WTF!!!!! how the hell.. hang on.. why are all these people chatting!!! ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

in real time...lol.... - Rob Sellen :o)

lol Rob - Jessica Williams

no kidding - Jessica Williams

mercedes.. yes, they did.. two nights ago - Rob Sellen :o)

how do you block or hide spam - Lynn

Jessica.. you can also send replies to the tweets to titter from here... - Rob Sellen :o)

Yup figured that out already thanks :) - Jessica Williams

lynn.. to block him.. CLICK his name.. block ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

Engage other people in conversation. Best advice I can give. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo

Lynn. You will not find too much Spam on FF - Bill Heslin

That then HIDES all of his comments.. thats WHY this place is SPAM free.. and we would like to KEEP it that way.. so use the block with spammers... they will soon go back to...twitter lol ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

I really wish we could get a bunch of celebs on here and keep friendfeed from disappearing! - Sam Guzman

What you have then Robert? - Rob Sellen :o)

Demi, the major difference to me is tha FF is more engaging; if you play along. Meaning, don't post something and then not interact with other users. Go back to Twitter if you don't want to make an effort. - Chad Gesser from BuddyFeed

http://bit.ly/8dSsK <<< post that to her on twitter - Rob Sellen :o)

Aww Chad that wasnt nice at all - Jessica Williams

Agreed Jessica...Chad Boo!!!! :) It takes time to get it...give her a chance.. - Bill Heslin

Ya and if she is sitting back watching trying to figure out whens a good time to say something to us all that isnt going to make her want to talk - Jessica Williams

yayy, demi B-) ff is the place for all the action. - Gtp19

liza... lol.. you start using this place, and you won't want to go to twitter so much ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

I am tired of ppl saying go back to Twitter - get over yourself or I will say go back to atari - Liza

Later Holden... - Bill Heslin

yep spammers don't last round here - Lynn

Yes, try Streamy..... - Janet Fouts

I'm leaving too. I hope Demi comes back and sees how fun FF can be. Bye everyone! - Sam Guzman

thanks Holden - Lynn

Tina.. we just want to OPEN her eyes.... ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

Greetings new FriendFeed users. Welcome to the playground. - Robert Kenney

WTH, Demi might as well save friendfeed from closing.. bring back demi. - Gtp19

Hey Demi..I just signed up for FriendFeed the other night. Not sure what to think about it either... hmmm - Melisa

so.. who needs people subbing to them???? ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

Robert, I don't either. - Martha

so how do I tweet it to her from here? - Lynn

Its quite funny either way. True or not. - Matt G

go to your home page... post it in the comments.. with your @mrsaplusk too.. click the CC to twitter . post ;o) as long as you have added your twitter username here that is... - Rob Sellen :o)

Beginners can find help here: http://friendfeed.com/friendf... and feel free to ask anyone! - Robert Kenney

I don't know, just gonna feel it out..... - Brenda Erdman Velasquez

done but I had to do it from tweetdeck, I will keep workin on this though - Lynn

Think of it as the place where all of your online stuff goes. You see the stuff, say, that your friends on Twitter are liking on YouTube. You can then talk about it, favorite it, etc. just like you do on Facebook. It's a mashup of all of your Web activity in one place. - Steve Lynch from twhirl

Lynn... you will like it here, you will notice whenever anything gets commented on, or liked, it jumps to the top of the page... - Rob Sellen :o)

The key to FriendFeed is following me. :) - Andrew

She'll never see this but I just have to comment knowing that I interacted with Demi Moore. ;) - Keith - @tsudo

It's amazing that with all of Demi's followers that she doesn't get more people over here. I'm noticing a trend: not many people engage on Tweets. - Robert Scoble

ahh that is why nothing is in the order it was posted in - Lynn

Be sure to add the bookmarklet to your browser. Makes posting to FriendFeed much easier. - Robert Kenney

It's nice to see so many new people joining up; welcome to everyone! I was going to suggest some of you check out the FriendFeed for Beginners group but I see someone else has already done that. Otherwise, the best suggestion I can offer you all is to do a search for some things that interests you and follow the people that posted them. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Subscribe to Holden. - Gus

Robert..I have noticed that on twitter they tend to struggle..... celebs would be in the element on here.. - Rob Sellen :o)

thanks for that Andrew I knew there was a right way to do this haha - Lynn

Well I apologize to those that took offense to my initial comment. That's just my take: show me some substance. Welcome Demi! - Chad Gesser from BuddyFeed

http://bit.ly/8dSsK <<< IF more of you tweeted that to her with @herusername she may take notice... - Rob Sellen :o)

Nice to see her here. Yet in this service, celebrities need to participate on the conversation which is what makes this different than Twitter. - Manuel Mas

It would be deliciously ironic if the buyout that everyone was worried about was the making of FF! - Matt G

Try not to get all caught up in out techno-babble, but a lot of learning here. - professor daddyo

Everyone's new at some point. The more the better. - Robert Kenney

lol.. chad.. the point is.. she probably not come back since posting.. but she will do.. and THEN realise what she missed.. - Rob Sellen :o)

Holden: come now. She has 1.7 million followers. This place should be going absolutely crazy if they were very engaged. - Robert Scoble

Steve: that's what I meant to say! lol - Chad Gesser from BuddyFeed

oh demi- it would make my night if you said something on here to us. :) - Tina Haight

I like old people. - Michael McKean

I agree.. but then, how many actually click her links... not many i bet. - Rob Sellen :o)

hmmm. can't wait here all night, demi! - Tina Haight

Scoble: engage, engage, engage. That to me is the point, which is very attractive about FF. Might I add connection? - Chad Gesser from BuddyFeed

start adding all your other social accounts (if you have any), that's the real kick to friendfeed (at least for me), an all in one feed - Gubatron

welcome chad, we like that much better - Lynn

Well I was hoping she would talk with us. Oh well. - Ben Hanten

Robert Scoble: Most Tweets aren't very... engaging! :) - Steve Lynch from twhirl

anyone watch big brother? - Tina Haight

nope hells kitchen - Lynn

NO.. not that shit bb.. not on here lol - Rob Sellen :o)

oh i love hells kitchen too - Tina Haight

leave big brother on twitter eh... ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

I saw that Rob :) - Mattb4rd

haha! but it's such a great show. and i am still excited about tonight's show. ;) - Tina Haight

welcome. where is ashton? :P - Oğuz Serdar

we don't need bb crap here .. I get away from tv and twitter to escape it!!! - Rob Sellen :o)

Demi just posted to twitter I tried to tell her we were all waiting for her but... - Lynn

we don't need ashton either ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

getting a little testie arent we - Lynn

Ashton is here http://friendfeed.com/theateam - Matt G

I think they come as a set - Lynn

lol - Lynn

no... I am just sayng.. both in one night would crash the place lol... if they started using it that is... - Rob Sellen :o)

Ashton was on the Dan Patrick Show today and was hilarious. Gained a bunch of new respect for him. - Ben Hanten

They could not crash FF....FF FTW.... - Bill Heslin

haha they do generate a bit of traffic - Lynn

I didn't like the way he did things at twitter at all... told him as much too.. - Rob Sellen :o)

i'm not gonna lie- i'm a pretty big deal too. - Tina Haight

I never had heard of it before but I'm trying now. Is it fairly new? - Barry Winters from iPhone

lol - Lynn

barry.. no... not so new..as much as sold..lol ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

suggestions? Yeah start chatting back while you still just have 175 subscribers :D - BairdWilliamson

Welcome to all the new visitors. Barry, this is about 18 months old, but lots of new features were turned on recently. - Robert Scoble

alright- i am giving up hope on demi coming. have been staring at a computer screen all day and night for work. - Tina Haight

night everyone! - Tina Haight

night nice chatting - Lynn

What?! The Scobelizer is a doubter as well? Tack it on to the list... - iamkhayyam

Yeah, welcome to all... :o) any problems you only have to ask..ask ANYONE lol ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

I'm not a doubter anymore! :-) - Robert Scoble

nice meeting you tina.. night. :o) - Rob Sellen :o)

Haha! There you go... she's Verified :) - iamkhayyam

What do you mean, Demi, "any suggestions?" What are you looking for? And why aren't you engaging, er, talking with us here? - Robert Scoble

lmao..... good one robert.. shame she missed it happen in real time lol :o) - Rob Sellen :o)

lol - Gtp19

Hi Demi.You're a little late to the party. We are all worried they are going to shut us out of this nice little cozy club called Friendfeed and lead us back to the shark-infested waters of Facebook. We are still makin' hay while the sun shines. :-) - Karma Martell

Well, if she's turned off real-time she might not even be seeing the comments yet, Robert. Or perhaps she made the post and left for dinner (west coast and all) and will check back later. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

...cool! welcome to FF. did you beat Ashton here? - .LAG liked that

this is like a really really private party with only 198 following on friendfeed...Demi leave the party already? - Rex Gradeless

This is just too cool. - Sherrie Belken

http://bit.ly/8dSsK << RT that in reply to her... see if she gets to see it at least ONE bloody time lol... - Rob Sellen :o)

It seems she doesn't care the comments. - Oğuz Serdar

perhaps just not aware they are here ... - Tom Horn

Engaging?! Seriously Scoble? Haha... that's a funny one. One msg on FriendFeed and then she's off for some Kabbalah teachings. - iamkhayyam

probably Demi doesn like to be part of comments, rather she likes to make the headlines, i mean the posts, lol :D - Gtp19

+1 Robert - Robert Kenney

ok gettin mean now gotta go - Lynn

LoL Hi Demi... Welcome to the FF Mob! Now go and spread some hate </extremesarcasm> - teh Dork Knight aka Kenny

Lynn: see ya, sorry about the meanness. But it would be nice to see Demi actually chat for a few minutes so she could get a sense of the power of friendfeed. - Robert Scoble

Demi: I see you're here. And welcome to all the new people on FriendFeed. I'd like to see you (and Ashton) take part in the conversations here. ;) - Dennis Jernberg

aggreed but bein mean isn't gonna make it happen - Lynn

Hahah! ++1000 tehKenny - Bill Heslin

Maybe she is too awestruck at the magnificence of friendfeed to type. I am imagining her sitting there frozen with her mouth hanging open watching all of this going on. - April Russo (app103)

yes, we would love to have Demi here.. long live friendfeed... i mean until its shut down!! - Gtp19

Well, you're about to get a billion responses of course, but you should hook up feeds from other sites you use too, not just Twitter. Maybe a YouTube channel too? Or Flickr? - Ciaoenrico

while wondering why twitter just..sits there lol - Rob Sellen :o)

#love #love #love #love #love #love #love #love #love #love #love #love #love #love #love - iconic88

April: That makes sense - Matt G

Welcome indeed. You should add more of your feeds to your FF account - Vinko

sub to some of the others here in this thread.. you all get to learn this place together then... - Rob Sellen :o)

Maybe she's thinking how on earth she's meant to keep up with the comments, posting from her blackberry/iphone/othermobiledevice :P - 1x29

@April That could be it. FF in Helvetica mode is hypnotic ... - Tom Horn

Thanks for that @iconic88 :) Always a good reminder... #love is all there is :) - iamkhayyam

Welcome to FF! - Jack Wilson, K4SAC

lol @ Tom - Gtp19

Thank you iconic88 - Sherrie Belken

FF in any mode is hypnotic. I haven't been able to pull myself away for many months. - April Russo (app103)

OK, predictions on how many comments this post will top out at? I'm going for 2,000. - 1x29

Hmm .. no , I think we are done. This is probably the last one ... - Tom Horn

Now everyone isl just staring waiting for Demi to comment :p - Gary Gannon

More points if you guess the number of posts before Demi makes a comment :) - 1x29

lol - Sherrie Belken

nah...plenty more will come later when everyone else sees it in best of day. - April Russo (app103)

and if she happens to engage it'll explode - Gary Gannon

yeah, its jus warming up... plenty more to come. - Gtp19

http://bit.ly/8dSsK << could tweet her that link.. its this THREAD .. ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

Demi this is my first time trying this after you. What is the difference between this and twitter? How did u find this?....Kim Goedde - Kim Goedde

Kim: Look through the thread. There's lots of advice. - Christopher A Carr

Kim, Demi hasn't been back on the thread to respond yet. I can't speak for her, but for me the biggest difference between FF and Twitter is the organization. If you send out a tweet you have to watch for @replies in response to that tweet, and they're kind of easy to miss. On FF when you make a post, all the replies to it are lined up underneath and it's much easier to follow (and take part) in the conversation. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Tina...You are one of the best Ambassadors for FF..Well said - Bill Heslin

That's the whole deal Tina - Sherrie Belken

Well, that's a big part of it Sherrie. The inclusion of media is another big selling point (for me, at least). Here people can include images, files, audio, or video on their posts and I can see/hear it here. On Twitter there's always a clickthrough, an extra tab or window, etc... Perhaps I'm lazy, but I like being able to interact with it all in one spot =) - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Demi-are you getting paid to promote these sites? I have posted comments now and again and have never got 1 response from you......Kim Goedde - Kim Goedde

Yes, I see posts that include the pics from my twitter account. Very cool. - Sherrie Belken

PJ WRONG.. whatever Scoble says is the right thing for HIM to do... and it may work for you, or not.. just use the place and find you own rhythm here. :o) - Rob Sellen :o)

Kim... why does THAT bother you.... do you think you could repsond to all those 1.7 million odd? THAT is why we are trying to say to her here... you should see this thread.. but she hasn't yet been back it seems... NO-ONE owes you a reply.. we learn that the hard way ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

250+ subscribers and counting. I'm holding off for now, even if all the rest of the geeks are subscribing. Not following her on Twitter. Demi, you'd better give me a good reason to subscribe. *switches to wait & see mode* - Dennis Jernberg

Robert:Same thing here as on Twitter. Only a "handful" of "followers/subscribers" engage. - Dana Fosburgh

My one suggestion to you, since FriendFeed will probably be a high traffic place for you - check out Robert Scoble (scobleizer) and see how he handles high volume. - John E. Bredehoft from fftogo

i like this so far.. - wendy smith

A good suggestion - Sherrie Belken

Learn from the master. ;) - Dennis Jernberg

'Crickets' - Robert Kenney

sheesh... her subs are crap... subbing mainly to people who never use the place??? - Rob Sellen :o)

That was just imported - Sherrie Belken

Yeah. When you join FF, it imports your Twitter follows. That's why I have over 120 subscriptions when I have only 75 subscribers: people on Twitter join, and I subscribe to them automagically. - Dennis Jernberg

was also useless lol ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

Hey Demi, welcome to Friend Feed. Hope all is well with you and those you love. Think about adding Robert Scoble to your Friend Feed list. He is the leading expert on all things Friend Feed, and usually is the first to give us heads up when something new is coming down the pike. Take care of you! =) - SashaKane

If you use Firefox, download Yoono --a Firefox add-on that allows you to see Twitter, Facebook, Friendfeed in Firefox, and gives a central place where all can be updated simultaneously. - Danny Groveman

thats what I wanted - Sherrie Belken

Can be overwhelmed by Scobles feed at times..not ideal for a new user.. - Rob Sellen :o)

Hi. Welcome to FriendFeed. - Steven Perez

DYDMoore than steve perez. :o) - Rob Sellen :o)

Welcome to FriendFeed, Demi! I will definitely be sure to subscribe to you here! - Thomas Ward

+1 Sean ...that's really FF in a nuthsell! - .LAG liked that

never take it too seriously, always keep a sense of humor with FriendFeed - sofarsoShawn

*waves Link FF with Tumblr ...I love pictures in my feeds. PEACE! - Rich Weaver

Hi!! :) - Susan Beebe from iPhone

This is post is why FriendFeed had to sell their goods Facebook. I am now convinced. Geek mob rule. - Alex C. Williams

Hello Demi ❤ Glad to see you here! - Jannifer @wordsforliving

I honestly only use FF to compile all my sites, almost never for discussions - Allison Warnock

what a strange turn of events considering the situation at hand..a bit late. but better late than never i guess. Welcome to all the new users. - Carlos Ayala

Glad to see you are here Demi, It's a pleasure. - Sherrie Belken

Suggestions... Well, stop being cool about it and write something!.. - Timsah memet

just play around D and you'll figure it out - Thomas Power

She still not been back then?? - Rob Sellen :o)

ok, i'm trying it too. just hope she doesn't try jumping off a bridge or i'm screwed - Laurel howard

I' m new and trying this too. I see your comments from Twitter on this thing too, are they linked?-confused : ( - Rose

Glad to have you both join us, Laurel and Rose =) Rose, Demi is importing her Twitter stream into FriendFeed, that's why you see her Twitter items here. When you comment on one of her Twitter items here, there's a checkbox that will allow you to send that comment to her on Twitter as an @reply. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

its like when kawasaki popped in for a single conversation last month. must be hard to deal whe you get so many replies - Robert Higgins

So many replies that aren't very welcoming don't help matters either. - pea

In reality all we've gained by Demi Moore's brief appearance is a number of celebrity stalkers hoping to cut her off at one more cyber pass and get the one reply they're living their lives for. The best demonstration yet of Scobles 'who you follow, defines you'? - 1x29

demi! we love you. just showed my daughters your 1986 classic movie about last night. they fell in love with you as i did! - JNez

Has Scoble ever had 385 comments here? What's the record? ;O - Rob Schieber

Nope: http://friendfeed.com/mikenay... Open at your peril. - Steven Perez from IM

Yes, Scoble has had 385 comments on FF. His post just this week re: FF geeks got over 1200. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Start by subbing to the peeps who comment on this thread. - Thom Kennon

Scoble has a thread from this week re FF addicts that i think has 1500 comments and counting. - Thom Kennon

yeah @Robert Higgins, Kawasaki kindasorta just disappeared pretty quickly didn't he?... - Thom Kennon

a few said he would tho... no surprise to see them ignoring the threads... daft really, why bother even starting one.... - Rob Sellen :o)

Like, share, follow and be merry. Welcome. - Jim Goldstein from iPhone

FF can be fun, emotional, crazy, and always entertaining. Just speak up when you see something interesting. Like Twitter, but more rounded. And don't mind the doom and gloom chatter that wanders around... some folks just don't handle change well. :D Welcome... - Bette Cooper

I've had lots of threads more than 385. Here's a list: http://friendfeed.com/search... -- this is why the search here rocks. Click on "Advanced Search" and you can find answers to all these kinds of questions. - Robert Scoble

Why can't you like a comment on FF? I hereby like that comment. - Amy℠

we say +1 amy ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

i dont get this - Lin Hill

bye - Lin Hill

bye - Daniel J. Pritchett

Do you have any specific questions, Lin? - Christopher A Carr

i dont know how to do this - Lin Hill

You can sort of think of it as Twitter + a searchable, multimedia chatroom, that aggregates your web activity. You can have FF pull in your Youtube favorites, Amazon wish list, etc... - Christopher A Carr

oh right.. maybe i should try again 2morrow when i havent had a drink, cause i dont get that at all - Lin Hill

Try the friendfeed bookmarklet: http://friendfeed.com/share... - There's a short video tutorial. - Christopher A Carr

ok thanks, i will try that - Lin Hill

Lin, what exactly would you like to do on FriendFeed? Are you just wanting to aggregate your items from around the internet, have conversations with other people, etc? There are lots of different ways to use FriendFeed depending on what you'd like to get out of it =) - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Interesting to see what this thread has become, especially since Demi Moore has not checked back into FriendFeed since posting this. - Justin Korn

ummm not sure what i want, think maybe i should leave quietly by back door - Lin Hill

Lin: How do you use Twitter? - Christopher A Carr

just follow people and comment now and then, thats all - Lin Hill

Lin: I ask, because you are essentially tweeting with multiple people right now, without having to use @... - Christopher A Carr

FF has *really* good search. Look for content that interests you. Comment and like, and people will subscribe to you... - Christopher A Carr

Nah, leaving's not necessary Lin. Especially if you've had a drink: Friday nights on FriendFeed can be fun! If you'd like to see what FriendFeed looks like to be, check http://friendfeed.com/isthiss... That page is what FriendFeed looks like to me because of the people I follow (which is a lot, so you might want to pause it). I use FF to have fun and find good conversations. Other people use it for research, or business, or just to aggregate their material online. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

well, this is the most i`ve been tweeted to since i started, i dont feel invisible anymore! - Lin Hill

Don't just import your Twitter like that ditz, Kim Kardashion. But do import what you feel and read and participate in posts. The key thing is participation on here from teaching something to learning something. - Outsanity

whos kim k - Lin Hill

Taking a look at your profile, I see that you're only following 12 people and not really commenting/liking all that much. That's probably why you're not getting a lot of interaction. Find some people that are interesting and interact with them on their posts. Once you start having conversations with people on their material, they get interested in what you have to say and are more likely to follow you back. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Imagine if Twitter included video and pictures in Tweets, and provided you with a threaded conversation to discuss your tweets... well, that's what you have here -- and that's just the beginning. - Christopher A Carr

i didnt realise i even had 12, where did you find that out? - Lin Hill

Has Demi checked back with us yet?? It will never be too late. - Amani

Click on your name in the upper right hand corner, Lin. - Christopher A Carr

it sounds good, i will keep at it 'practise makes perfect' and all that - Lin Hill

That's exactly it, Lin =) Let us know if you have any other questions: it can be kind of confusing when you first get going... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

And can you imagine people helping you like this on Twitter? ;-) - Christopher A Carr

Oh, and try out different themes.. - Christopher A Carr

half the people i`m subscribed too i didnt even choose!! whats that about?? - Lin Hill

Never drink and FriendFeed at the same time - Outsanity

i didnt subscribe to red nose day!! - Lin Hill

Do you follow them on Twitter? - Christopher A Carr

not all of them, just a few - Lin Hill

Did you sign up to FriendFeed with your Twitter credentials, Lin? If so, it will subscribe you to the people you follow on Twitter that are on Friendfeed. It's not a big deal, really: all you do is hover over their name and click 'unsubscribe' if you don't want them. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

ok, thanks everyone, i`ll subscribe to all of you instead - Lin Hill

FriendFeed Rocks ;) No need for anything else! Happy to have you on board! - Nia from fftogo

@Robert RE "I have enough noise in my life. I don't need to have more" - isn't it a lot of noise having 26K subscriptions and 46K subscribers on your frf account? I'm kind of surprised - you create a community that large around yourself, yet when you see a new and unusual activity you just block it right away. - Махатма Бугоганди

@Robert, patience? Who's talking about patience? It's about curiosity, not patience. When something strange and unusual happens around you, you can either try to stop it or try to see what it can develop into. You choose to stop - and it stopped. Well, not stopped - just moved to some other place. And do you really know what it was and what it was about to bring you? - Махатма Бугоганди

so only a few % of rob's followers on here responded? - Mark

Just logged into Friendfeed in the last 24 hours. This seems a lot cleaner than Twitter for certain. I'm an organization freak! - David Kolln

Mark: I have 46,000 followers, but the usual thing is only a percentage of them show up on any week. - Robert Scoble

That's sad - Gianluca Neri from iPhone

I'm sure this is part of Scoble's plot to poll all the people who really read his posts, and unfollow the rest. So I raise my hand. - Shivanand Velmurugan

Just a wannabe. Not an addict (yet). - Carole Hicks

It might also be a way for me to filter down my "following" count (diff (my followers, scoble)) are the only people I really need to follow. Those that scoble follows, I can safely unfollow and use Scoble as my social media filter :) - Shivanand Velmurugan

Well, here's a comment I can later delete and rob the owner of 1500! - Matthew DeVries

I just mention the 1500 mark since it was such an iconic query to see... that and the 500 Likes club of FF posts. It's pretty exclusive stuff... but it's also sobering to note that the subject matter required to get to these levels isn't always a uniform mix of cares/concerns. - Jay Cuthrell

When I heard the FaceBook news, I tried to quit FriendFeed and I couldn't... I'M HOOKED - The Web's Wendell Wittler

@bdlangam From my perspective the #1 tip in this category is: Explore and define "best use" for yourself. Despite potential "finishing" impression of some productive consolidations in this collective-collaborative cognition space, the emergent #cognosphere is still WAY too nascent to assert anything other than initial impressions.

Internet Strategist, sofarsoShawn, Mitchell Tsai and 154 other people liked this

And go where? Back to Twitter or...Facebook? - Manuel Mas

525 more comments

no idea yet.... see what happens. - Rob Sellen :o)

I have nowhere else to go. No where else gives me the high level of interaction that FF does. - Mel Buckpitt

Same FriendFeed as before, I'll still use. - Ben Parr

Of course if Paul hands me a few hundred shares of stock ... just kidding. Sigh. - Robert Scoble

I was going to ask how you felt about the purchase, but now I see - acedanger

Depends how much it changes. - Andrew Leyden

Why leave? - Mike Shulman

+1 Mel - I am gutted and don't know what to do if the main FF site closes - Matt Hooper

Why would I leave friendfeed? This place works well enough for me. - Talon Lardner

Manuel: back to my blog and Twitter, probably. I'm playing around with Facebook but it doesn't quite do it for me. - Robert Scoble

I'm sticking around unless there's some sort of mass exodus which I don't see an immediate reason for. - Mike Elliott

Not leaving 'til it closes, and I'm certainly not going to facebook or twitter even then. - Jim Hearts FF

I'm sad, but I'm sticking around. I'm hoping others do to. At some point, the fuss will die down. - Helen Sventitsky

Mike: because I expect it will get shut down eventually if it doesn't get invested in, and if it gets no new features it will fall behind Google Wave and other projects. - Robert Scoble

This feels like that HBO Documentary about Brooklyn Dodgers going to LA haha. - Manuel Mas

And, actually, Google Wave seems to be the most obvious thing for me to try out from now on. - Robert Scoble

I will stick around until they move the features I like from friendfeed onto facebook. - Bryan Lee

Isn't it a bit early to make decisions? Has there been an announcement that I missed that FF is going away? Even if it isn't where else is better at this point? - Internet's Tad

I'm not going anywhere Helen...When it goes it goes...I'm sitting tight on the ship - Bill Heslin

there used to be a kind of message board system ages back with FB. disppeared one day never to return, lets hope this will bring something of that back, who knows.. - Terry O'Fee

I can't wait to try out wave. ;o) - Rob Sellen :o)

Waiting and watching. Robert, I know you have a discussion tab on FB but its not the same. ;) - Melanie Reed

How soon before google wave becomes available to the early adopters/public? - Bryan Lee

Mashable just published a How To Take Advantage of FriendFeed's Unique Features. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. A little late for that, no? - Stephen Pickering

didn't you just just say "FriendFeed is dead. I will keep using it until Paul unplugs the last server, which could be years" ? or i'm missing something - Liviu Barbat

I'll stick around to the bitter end. - Dave Metzener

Robert: Earlier in the day you were excited for both FriendFeed & Facebook. It didn't sound like you were leaving FriendFeed. What changed? Why not stick around to see what happens? - Jill Elswick

Bryan: I heard they weren't handing out beta access to non-developers until September. Cold be wrong but that's what I heard - Mike Elliott

I'm in wait and see mode. It would have to be absolutely sucked in by FB for me to leave it completely. - pea

Robert, if you believe this is a good deal for both FF and FB - why are you leaving? - George F. Snell III

When should we cue in Titanic's last song by the band as FF sinks below leaving us all behind? - Manuel Mas

Why leave now? Until it is changed or killed, it still works just the same. - Jeff P. Henderson

Same assessment as you, I'll stick around but I need to find an option B now. I guess I'll go wherever Louis Gray recommends - Alberto Saavedra

I plan on sticking around for a little while longer. Not ready to jump ship yet. - David Finch

Melanie: yeah, real time really has me going. I will wait until I get a better sense from the FriendFeed team about what will be done here. I just am not getting the right signals from the team that there will be any investment in this. If that's the case, I'd rather invest my time somewhere else. Google Wave. Ning. Vanilla on Building43. Twitter, now that I got rid of the spammers. Etc. - Robert Scoble

I'll watch and see what happens. IF I feel that it would be useless to stay, I'll leave the site. - TeraDyne Azurepaw

I think the features of FF will be incorporated into FB (guilt free) and FB profiles will be more tied into FF. That's about all we'll see... - Gus

Scoble: Ning?!?! Really? - Manuel Mas

Manuel: hey, Pirillo is over there. :-) - Robert Scoble

I'm staying here until something else catches up. - Bruce Lewis

Robert, I can definitely see the value of your invested time on any service, but for the average user, what is the downside of sticking around here as long as the site still exists? - Jeff P. Henderson

hmm, ning. unexpected, but understandable - Alistair (alpinefolk)

@Scobleizer: The big crowd is not even at Friendfeed yet and you are already leaving? Someone will be by in a few minutes with a drink. Please help yourself and stick around for the conversation. You will be greatly missed should you choose to leave so soon. - David Damore

Social Media is a set of tools--I appreciate the connections I make, but I'm not getting too emotionally worked-up about the tools changing. FF probablywon't function as my Social Media hub much longer. - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)

I like it here, so I'll hang out as long as possible. - sean percival

Not making any set plans yet, but keeping my eyes and ears open. - Martha

And when Google buys Twitter, won't that be interesting - Stephen Pickering

Bruce: have you played with Wave yet? I'm wondering how good that is? I gotta get an invite. Off to beg someone cooler than me. :-) - Robert Scoble

I will continue to use it until it closes down in its current form. - ashish

Google/Twitter vs. Facebook/FriendFeed - Stephen Pickering

+1 ashish - Liviu Barbat

I'm a little pissed that we haven't heard much from our other "rock stars". Where the hell are they? This concerns them, yet I can hear a pin drop. I think there secretly plotting. Roflmao - Jeunelle Foster

I don't want to but if it eventually goes down the way everybody's predicting it will then i'll have to look for alternatives :( .......by the way where do i beg for Wave invites :) - Bhowmik Shah

I'd bet Microsoft buys Twitter before Google does. - Gus

I haven't played with wave yet, but from what I've seen it's got potential. FriendFeed's got polish. - Bruce Lewis

I wasn't planning on going anywhere, but I guess I'll be spending more time on Social Median. Perhaps someone should start putting together a decent buddypress site? - Aram Zucker-Scharff

I might leave only because I quit facebook - I hate the mindset, the shallowness, and am afraid (make that certain) those people will come here - Aaman (Clone of FF)

Gus: Microsoft and Twitter deserve each other. They are both somewhat buggy and don't come up with new features very often. ;-) - Robert Scoble

I think I'll be heading back to Twitter until Google Wave is publicly available - Aaman (Clone of FF)

Robert: Since at the end of the day all these platforms are businesses and have to eventually make money does it make sense to keep investing time and effort into building communities on them when they can sell/merge at any time and dismantle the tools that keep the community in place? it seems like the portable community concept of something like Google FriendConnect now makes more... more... - Mike Elliott

The other rock stars are drinking. :-) - Robert Scoble

If Facebook had an easier way of connecting with people but not showing them all the personal stuff I'm willing to show to my close friends (and the stuff my friends post about me), I don't think I'd need anything like FriendFeed or Twitter. - Edward Coffey

Robert: I've played with Wave and I wouldn't really put it in the same category as FriendFeed at the moment. It's not really about sharing and conversing in mass form IMO. Its really conversation with maybe 20 people or so but its much more difficult to focus conversations about shared content. Let everybody know when you get an invite and your address so we can add you! :) - Brandon Titus

I'll stick around until the end. - Mathew™ one of a kind

It kinda proves a theory I have about us all being reduced (if I can use that word) to channels. I don't think social networking will go away, but as the internet and deals increase, so does the noise. Don't worry Scobe, you still show up in our Google reader every morning!! - professor daddyo

Man, what are we going to do without these discussions like this? - Stephen Pickering

Mike: No community is permanent. It's worthwhile to participate even if it's temporary. - Bruce Lewis

@Gus, Well MS has large stake in FB so I'm not sure about that. I'll stick around here till it peters out. The tech news rooms here are top notch. - Adi

I don't use FF much other than for private rooms, so I'll stay for those. Whatever other activity I have (which is sporadic and generally not personal) will also remain. - Cheryl

I'll stick around until they pull the plug. - Morton Fox

Leave friendfeed? what's the alternative I'd really like to know. Is it facebook? - Tate DA FF MVP

I'll stick with it as long as it's here and people are still active. FF4L!! - Cassidy

What is the next thing? Where do we go now? Not FB! But where? - Michael Liss

I heard it's MySpace - sean percival

I'm staying until the end as well. - Mitch

I won't be deleting my account, but signing in and commenting? No. No real point to continue putting data into a service that is gonna get unplugged anyway. Guess we just have to return to blogs and twitter. - BCK

quick! everybody back to MySpace!!! - acedanger

what? leave and create a better version of Twitter? or start FriendsterFeed? - Andy Sternberg

The downside for me? I invest time in things that WILL BE not that are. That's always been what keeps my interest and now that I know that FriendFeed probably will not be, even if it takes five years to totally die, I've lost a great deal of interest in it. - Robert Scoble

Michael: I don't think anyone knows today where to go next, because there's no good substitute out there. We can only hope that the next destination will be obvious before they pull the plug. - Bruce Lewis

With the price of bandwith/computing halving every year, there will be a new one of these popping up pretty quick - Stephen Pickering

I'll just go to twitter. I have a facebook account but I hate it. Facebook is the walmart of the web. - Darrel Davis

Should we move to where?? haha - harri78son

I'll be here until something actually changes for the worse - Dennis O'Neil

harri78son you could come back over to my blog and we could setup JS-Kit Echo. :-) - Robert Scoble

Damn now I need a drink :) - Jeunelle Foster

I hate fb. Don't like tweeting. Guess I'll be keeping up with my feeds without the fun ff distractions :( - BEX from iPhone

That's right, Scoble is the catalyst for these longer threads anyway, so it might as well move to his JS-Kit - Stephen Pickering

Robert, that's a pity. I'm lucky to deal in things that only get more interesting as they get older. - Bruce Lewis

I'm torn. What are our options? - Kelly Mitchell

yeah~ definitly! @Jeunelle foster please come down, - harri78son

I see now...This whole thing was a ploy to get everyone visiting Robert's blog! I am outraged! :P - Brandon Titus

Brandon: OK, we can go over to YOUR blog. Got Echo? :-) - Robert Scoble

Bruce: Very true. I've tried to get into FaceBook but it's hard to get the clean conversation feed along with lifestreaming content. It just seems to be full of distracting noise even with the ability to filter with lists. - Mike Elliott

I'm here till the end. - Nolan Alston

Robert, the same could be said about Flickr, they haven't had much inovation since Yahoo bought them, but people still use the service in droves. - Jeff P. Henderson

Don't worry Kelly, a new one of these will pop quickly, if they kill this - Stephen Pickering

Kelly: we don't need to leave tonight. Let's trash the house first! :-) - Robert Scoble

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA - Stephen Pickering

Brandon, that's funny. At the Boston FriendFeed meetup, everybody else had learned about FriendFeed through Scobleizer. I was the only one who found him through FriendFeed. - Bruce Lewis

I'm leaving my account here for now but I'll be removing all my feeds. - Got80s

I have no idea where to go... - Johnny

Let's make the longest thread in FF history - Stephen Pickering

Anyway, for the rest of today at-least I reckon I'll be off FriendFeed - real conversation is being drowned out by the echoes of this deal. - Edward Coffey

Damn it. Why is Arrington always right! - Stephen Pickering

Jeff P. Flickr is different Yahoo bought them for their user base. Facebook bought Friendfeed for their features. - Bryan Lee

Got80: why do that? Who cares if your feeds are going in here? - Robert Scoble

Edward: that is true. It caught us all off guard and we're still processing it. - Robert Scoble

Kind of huge things in this time,.hmmm - harri78son

Facebook bought FF for Paul Bucheit - Stephen Pickering

I'm staying here until there is a reason to leave. Though I don't hold out hope they'll keep the service alive forever... obviously, I'm always enjoysthin.gs too, but it's not quite the same. I REALLY can't see myself using facebook as much as FF though. - Ted Roden

I need an adult beverage. then I'll trash the place... - Kelly Mitchell

I despise FB. Please let them not just trash FF. - Adam Webb

Considering the free Google Wave protocol implementation and ejabbered work together, it shouldn't be too hard to quickly build a FF type service that's scalable. Combine that with EC2 and S3 and you could probably get a lot of runway before funding is needed. Robert, I think the next service you switch to should be part owned by you, considering I bet a lot of the traffic here was originated from you evangelizing. - Chip Ramsey

Bryan: it's worse than that. I'm hearing that Facebook bought FriendFeed for its team. Google Superstars. Makes Zuckerberg get out his wallet. - Robert Scoble

Where will be the next pasture Mr. Scoble? - Rami Taibah

Stephen: lol. Yes, the 50 million dollar man. But seriously, there's no doubt what they really want is the tallent. - Brandon Titus

I'm gutted about this, but I knew that Virb account would come in handy eventually... sorta... maybe... - Linda Mills

Holden, yeah, but it doesn't make sense to invest energy here when its eventually going to die anyway - Stephen Pickering

I'm new on FF so I wonder, are people leaving FF because you'll have to use FB to participate? - Christopher Doiron

Stephen: not only for Paul. The guy who started Google Talk is at FriendFeed. So is the guy who started Google Maps. - Robert Scoble

Among other ex-Google superstars. - Robert Scoble

Robert your not processing anything from what I see..Your just gonna dump it...thanks...makes us All feel so much better....Salt in a wound? - Bill Heslin

Christopher, it's that the FriendFeed team's new bosses will turn priorities away from the site we love. - Bruce Lewis

They'll probably cannibalize FriendFeed... nom nom - Kelly Mitchell

funny how many people are joining friend feed on the news of this acquisition. i'm seeing lots of my twitter followers starting to join. - mark silva

Go where, do what? - frankiecarl

I say its WAAAYYY too early to speculate what will happen to friendfeed next. Let the drama of today die down. - Bryan Lee

Yeah lets all get drunk and start a fight. This whole thing is hilarious to me. Funny how media can start a panic. I ain't goin no where, I like to coloring. - Jeunelle Foster

Bill: I said I won't leave until I hear more from the team. Why must you always be a drama queen? - Robert Scoble

Kelly, I wish they would absorb FriendFeed, but despite the talk I don't think openness and Facebook are compatible. - Bruce Lewis

Robert, Ex-Google Superstars is how I see it too. I don't see big plans for FF the sense was we were the last thing on their minds. - Melanie Reed

Can't help being an attention whore, its what I'm good at :) - Jeunelle Foster

Okay so we sit tight and wait and drink. lol - Kelly Mitchell

but there is no time to wait a special direction on internet, It's too fast!! - harri78son

Kelly: My analogy for this is like the female praying mantis luring the male for sex, then it bites its head off. You can see the pic in my story http://bryansays.com - Bryan Lee

I'm in the eyewear business and so I always know how to make a spectacle of myself :) - Jeunelle Foster

Bruce: I agree. Wouldn't it be feasible for them to simply keep the two properties separate then? FriendFeed would be the open/public portion of Facebook and Facebook could stay closed and keep its current private user base. - Brandon Titus

Bryan, pretty graphic and right on the money. - Kelly Mitchell

Why shouldn't he pull out his wallet. FB needs to monetize. The ex Google Rockstars know just how to do that - Stephen Pickering

I'll stick around and see what happens, but might not bother so much with another 'social' web site again. - Grant Bierman

:) I am what I am Robert...I'm A DRAMA QUEEN? LOL that's funny....even though I'm a much better queen than you I still wuvs ya...Still processing all this as everyone else is...Sorry...might be shooting from the hip and I shouldn't - Bill Heslin

Am I the only one excited to see how Facebook integrates FF? I have hundreds of FB friends that I know personally, yet know nobody that I am "friends" with on FF or Twitter. FB has my friends but I'd love FF's functionality. - Christopher Annunziata

There's this optimistic talk about keeping FriendFeed around as R&D. I'm skeptical about it. - Bruce Lewis

I'll leave FriendFeed as soon as there's somewhere to go to; currently, I'm not convinced there is. - Tristan Seligmann

Also when you are hanging with the Master of the Universe for four hours, its sort of like Bill Clinton going to Korea. Kind of influences you. - Stephen Pickering

Rami: I don't know. That's why I'm talking with you. I just know I won't continue to invest my time in something that will soon get no more investment. That's not who I am. I will hang out with Louis Gray until he finds something cool. By the way, someone gave me Google Wave already, thanks! - Robert Scoble

This should be a reality television show. This is where the real drama queens will come out to play. - Jeunelle Foster

Leo's going to need a new show, TWIF - Stephen Pickering

This week in Facebook - Stephen Pickering

Anyone here ever feel like we're just being tossed around from website to website by the big players? - Christopher Doiron

Thanks Kelly :) - Bryan Lee

Chris, Yep - Stephen Pickering

Bruce: I disagree with you about Facebook and openness. They are a lot more open than they used to be and are MUCH more professional and friendly than, say, Twitter is. - Robert Scoble

Robert, I look forward to your review of Wave. - Bruce Lewis

Openness and Facebook are not one and the same.... polar opposites. Bah humbug. - Kelly Mitchell

Yup the big dogs are sitting back laughing at this whole thing - Jeunelle Foster

It doesn't necessarily have to be "R&D" but really a completely separate product. Something like YouTube is to Google. Although that's a terrible analogy...I guess the products are too similar to keep separate. - Brandon Titus

I'd pay-per-view to see Scoble and Sebastian Bach fight - Mattb4rd

The Chinese government is much more open than it used to be. It still doesn't meet my standards. - Bruce Lewis

Bruce: also, Zuckerberg is seeing the real money is in search. So he HAS to be open to really do great there. - Robert Scoble

Robert: Any chance you could share your Wave address? - Brandon Titus

Did anyone get a chance to see Youtube HTML 5 Demo? - Stephen Pickering

Brandon: I don't have my own address. Someone gave me theirs so can't share. - Robert Scoble

Zuckerberg doesn't make money from other companies' search engines, so he's still limiting what data can go out. I see FB getting more open about what data they take in. - Bruce Lewis

Bruce: Wave is very geeky. I think the UI has a lot of FriendFeed's problems x10. We'll see how that first impression sticks. - Robert Scoble

And Wave will only be as good as how many users it has - Stephen Pickering

I guess what I'm trying to say is even if you don't think your time here is an not an investment ;anymore in anything Robert...We still, or at least I do, consider your input valuable. And if you were to jump ship too soon, I think we would all lose something. So, even if things don't look good...please hang around..That's what I meant to say... - Bill Heslin

Where will I go? Probably no where. Friendfeed was the first time I really got to feel like I found a home. Other places don't interact and blend multiple social services like Friendfeed does/did. Just as plenty of other people have said, I'm waiting for Google Wave at this point. I'm already a Google whore, might as well wait for the Wave to come through. - Matthew Horton

Bruce: data that goes out can be embedded on blogs and websites and interact with things. Also, if you get into Google's search engine you can get a LOT of traffic, which then you can monetize on your own service. - Robert Scoble

Not necessarily nailing the coffin shut yet here. Going to hang around and see what develops....what seems likely at the moment may be a totally different thing tommorow :O) - Jack Wilson, K4SAC

I am leaving at midnight. 2 accounts will be deleted, mine and one I manage for another site. - April Russo (app103)

Robert: Hope you enjoy Wave! The UI is definitely way off for content sharing (at least in my first impression) and more suited for group communication for the very scenarios they threw out in the demos. Get much beyond that, or have too many people and the system starts to break down. Obviously, the underlying Wave infrastructure could be used to create something similar to and better than Friendfeed. - Brandon Titus

Yeah, the cool thing about Wave is the problem they solved with the protocol. Not really their UI implementation. I think there are huge opportunities with both Open Social and the Wave protocol. - Chip Ramsey

OK, I have been out of touch and I guess I missed something. I see nothing wrong with staying with all the feeds I am tied to! - Dave Sickmeier

April, please don't delete your account. We lose interesting history when people do that. - Bruce Lewis

I'm sticking around. - Nation Hahn

There is no Facebook and no FriendFeed, it is now called TwoFacedFriend... - Kelly Mitchell

Bill: I'll be around but probably a lot less. Actually I was thinking that this was good timing. We have a new baby due in September and my other son is just starting to learn to talk, so want to spend more time hanging around with the family. - Robert Scoble

I am gonna wait it out. If the community as a whole migrates I will go with them, but I don't want to overreact. - Neal Jansons

it's time to have another serious look at Plaxo. There are some very clever people there too, I believe?! - Matt Hooper

Truth is, being addicted to FriendFeed isn't a good lifestyle. - Robert Scoble

Well said Robert - Kelly Mitchell

April: why so sudden and why delete accounts? I don't get that. - Robert Scoble

As you should. Family is much more important than any of this. And now I have to go fix my wig! LOL - Bill Heslin

depends what they do with the service - I like friendfeed and facebook so I think it will probably work okay for me - Nick Stone

Brandon: oh, oh. You said it "Wave doesn't scale." Not good. - Robert Scoble

FF also has good tools for using it in moderation -- best of day, week, which you can get by email. Lists help. - Bruce Lewis

I have been spending most of my time on Brightkite. It's a smaller community and more fun. A better alternative than twitter or facebook. - John C Ferron

Robert, and yes when he does that (Money in Search), it will change the playing field in lateral ways across the Internet, especially in ePortfolios and other like applications that don't need to be walled gardens - Melanie Reed

Your right, Robert, but you would eventually learn to moderate your use, and a service like this is going to be needed - Stephen Pickering

so much DRAMA - Kevin Pruett

Kevin, the Drama is warranted - Stephen Pickering

And Leo and Dick Debartolo are on the wine train, missing all this...I envy them...lol - Bill Heslin

Will there ever be an app that just leaves facebook out of the equation - we could only dream - Ryan Gerritsen

i'm leaving, watching from twitter would be a better option for me. - rama mamuaya

I am not likely to invest time in another community that I don't have a stake in. If I contribute it will be because I have a personal interest and am part of the team that runs the show. That is the only way I will feel comfortable investing my time & energy into it. - April Russo (app103)

If we could get the other "Rock Stars" who are obviously having a "virtual prayer meeting" somewhere to get together and talk about what changes they wish to see and what they would like to see develop for social media, Twitter, Facebook, Friendfeed and now this Google Wave, we would probably all feel a little better as we might be able to see down the dark cold tunnel but they're out... more... - Jeunelle Foster

i think that I'll keep posting to friendfeed until it fully integrates with facebook - Carlos Leiva Burotto

Did you guys see Dave Winer's URL shortner, http://rp.ly? Genius. - Stephen Pickering

Jeunelle: Rizzn and Louis Gray and I did a podcast earlier where we talked through some of our feelings. It was very, um, theraputic. - Robert Scoble

hahaha I must of missed it, I'll dig it up. A bit quiet still though. Haven't heard peep from Chris Brogan and all them other STARS - Jeunelle Foster

Louis's blog post was classic. - Bruce Lewis

Man, I can understand Louis' feelings. Look how much he and Scoble have put into this - Stephen Pickering

I'll continue to use FF until there's reason not to. I'm patient enough to see what happens to it. What's the hurry? - Cathryn Hrudicka

I just started on Friendfeed. It can't go away! - Paul McElligott

Lets start FeedFriend - the Bizaro friendfeed minus Facebook integration - Ryan Gerritsen

Well, I was rather hoping for some sort of joint deal between Twitter & FF... I'm not sure if I'll stick around in FF or not. I'm definitely not a fan of Facebook - Tim Bergman

Paul, that's what so frustrating. Just given time, we know it would have caught on - Stephen Pickering

I'm staying... - Luis

Thanks for feeding the flames, there, Scoble. *WHAT* on earth is so scary about all this? - Brad McCrorey

Brad, FF has died. Scoble made this thing. And what does he get out of it? Nuttin - Stephen Pickering

Was this the Exit Strategy? I don't see how FF makes money right now? - Keith Rowland

Stephen: I got you all as friends. - Robert Scoble

:-) - Stephen Pickering

This really SUCKS because when you don't have great "developers" to put something together like FriendFeed, you're really just gonna have to either take it up the ass or commit suicide. I'll hang myself 1st with all my clothes on :) - Jeunelle Foster

Jeunelle HAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH - Stephen Pickering

I'm wherever good, smart peeps are ('cuz I'm not smart enough). I don't invest much in tools - it's the people I care for. I'm not gonna abandon FF now but I understand that we'll need a way to foster the kind of community that got fostered here. Nothing lasts forever - and that's mostly a good thing in the long run. - phil baumann from Android

i'll be here until either the bitter end or something else comes along ... i'm really hoping that the ff-team will turn facebook into more of what it was before the apps came along... i think that's when FB really took a downward turn for me - Chris Heath

I follow the Cheese! - Rich Weaver

Venues like this will come and go, the whole social media landscape is in a constant state of flux I don't see why so many are up in arms. The life cycle of all the current venues are short and most of the leaders are nearing the end of their lives as we know it. But fear not, many new shiny toys will be bestowed upon us to play with. Now let's be social again! (ps. I'm sure we've seen NOTHING yet!) - Paul Monaco

Tweet: the cheese is in Zuckerberg's office! :-) - Robert Scoble

And for anyone that wants to know why I am deleting my account and not just moving away and leaving it to rot like i would normally do...just read the policies of facebook. Anywhere I have an account with data I don't want to be exploited commercially, in a way that exploits me personally, I'd delete it just as fast if the service were bought by facebook. - April Russo (app103)

Zuckerberg is Master of the Universe. He spent 4 hours with Paul Friday. That would have an effect on anyone - Stephen Pickering

I know I am able to post status updates in Facebook to "Everyone" now, but when will we be able to search these open status updates? - Kevin Whalen from iPhone

I can't wait till my mom gets one of my "Queenie" updates....that's gonna b fun...lol.. - Bill Heslin

Kevin, when God, ie Mark Zuckerberg, says you can - Stephen Pickering

I love FF but I think this is a great move. If FB takes the best ideas from FF and they open it up theres is so much potential for a great community. - Gary Gannon

Definitely see what happens... Not looking forward to Facebook turning this into a free-for-all like Facebook :-) - Maria Reyes-McDavis

Gary a potential for $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ - Stephen Pickering

Not going anywhere for the time being. I'm not a big Twitter fan, and unless FB makes some big time changes, it just doesn't do it for me. Will be listening for any other social media that might come round the bend. - Bonnie Foster

We are getting tired of all those constant platform changes, aren't we? - Harald Felgner

Harald Yes! - Stephen Pickering

I say we all leave Facebook instead. - Larry Roth

Herald and Stephen, Yes! More and different is not always better, just more and different. - Melanie Reed

I can't leave Facebook. I have too much built up there. And that won't do anything anways. It will just be a small blip to them. - Mathew™ one of a kind

so what content aggregator in the absence of FF? - WarLord

My apologies if this has already been asked, but Robert you are very close the FF team. You had no idea this was coming? - Ben Hanten

I'm not leaving. I like FriendFeed and Facebook. - Kimber Scott

Ben: not one iota. I did sense that they were struggling to figure out how to compete, but didn't think they would sell. Paul always told me he didn't want to sell. - Robert Scoble

Robert - I'm confused - on the one hand you've said this is such a great thing for FF as well as FB - but on the other hand you also say you're leaving FF because of of it. Why - if this is such a great thing for FF? - Matthew Blaisdell

WarLord: there isn't a good aggregator. That's why it's stupid to delete your feeds. - Robert Scoble

OK, a friend talked me down. He told me I'd be saying sorry for starting this post by the 400th comment. He's usually right. So, instead of saying sorry, I'm going drinking. See ya in the lobby in 10 minutes! - Robert Scoble

I may be dense about this, but why would you leave until you saw which way it was going? - Jerry Kidd

Good question, Jerry. I wanna know this, too. - Brad Williamson

Robert, I think he struggled with it, but 4 Hours with Mark is a big persuasion - Stephen Pickering

Matthew: I expect that the engineers will get put onto Facebook. So, if the smartest people are working on Facebook and not on FriendFeed, why would I stay here? Why wouldn't I start moving my work and social graph and all that over to Facebook? - Robert Scoble

LOL...there ya go Robert...I knew you would come around...Drink Drink!!! have a really nice cocktail... - Bill Heslin

The people I've come to know on FriendFeed are what I'd miss though, so I'd like to take my social graph with me wherever I might end up next. There's a business opportunity right there. - Aaman (Clone of FF)

Dunno if I'll leave the ship... - Wario

When I think about it - I found your post as well as the TechCrunch article via Google Friend Connect. So maybe it is time to join that Wave!? - Harald Felgner

Jerry: I said I was going to wait until I talk with the team more, but the things I'm hearing tell me they've already been bought to work on Facebook proper. So, unless someone tells me that's wrong, that tells me I should spend more and more of my time over on Facebook and not here. But my friend convinced me I'm being hasty and emotional. :-O - Robert Scoble

Mathew: Scoble said early on in this thread that he invests his time into emerging networks, not things that "are already here" I think thats why he will be moving on to the next big thing, like google wave or watchever new social network emerges out of this. I suspect that another startup will emerge to try and fill the shoes left behind by friendfeed. This is always the case. When napster left, you had morpheus and kazaa, then bit torrents. - Bryan Lee

Robert - Makes sense - except that it still doesn't seem like a great day for Friendfeed - if it just gets abandoned (by FB as well as by leaders like you...) - Matthew Blaisdell

Matthew: FriendFeed=Facebook. It's a great day for both. Cause I'll end up at Facebook either way! :-) - Robert Scoble

Anyway, these are just the emotional ramblings of someone trying to figure out how the world shifted today. Have fun! - Robert Scoble

clue to the denouement: where is the most valuable processing of this event. Right here. - Steve Gillmor

I'm just curious what new startup will roll into the limelight because of this announcement? - Bryan Lee

Robert, FriendFeed != Facebook - look at the quality of commentary/people here - Aaman (Clone of FF)

FriendFeed can stop improving right now, and I'll still stick around until something else catches up. Maybe that something else will be Facebook. I'll wait and see. - Bruce Lewis

I'm probably out. Back to open source for me at this point. Time to take another look and see how things have progressed with Laconica, JaikuEngine, NoseRub, and some of the other secondary options. I may also go crawling back to Twitter. Given a choice between Twitter and Facebook... sigh... - Ken Sheppardson

++Steve Gillmor - Bruce Lewis

Ken you'll be back. - Steve Gillmor

I don't think FB will change it all so quickly. But I do like Laconica, too. - Monique Hodgkinson

Steve you're making it hurt worse! ;-( - Stephen Pickering

Monique: It's not about rapid change, it's about where to invest effort. I don't really have any interest in investing my time and energy on Facebook... so why wait? - Ken Sheppardson

stephen how so - Steve Gillmor

I don't know where to go :( - K.D.

I'll make up my mind when I figure out what better alternative there is to Friend Feed. - Anthony Teegarden

Because we know FF has died - Stephen Pickering

Steve: Yeah, you're probably right. I appreciate the work Bret, Paul, Benjamin, et al have done, and I was really looking forward to where they were taking things... before they were taking it to Facebook. - Ken Sheppardson

I think I will just stay on twitter, because I can't stand facebook. - Tomy Thomson

Stephen: FF has died? Well, then, how am I typing to you? - Robert Scoble

Tomy, why change? You can listen to the Beatles and the Stones! - Stephen Pickering

Ken: it's all good. they're moving to a radically larger playground, and they can't afford to abandon those who appreciate them - Steve Gillmor

They will keep FF just will make it better - Johni Fisher

Choose I meant - Stephen Pickering

Please stop with FF has died chatter! - Bryan Lee

I'll wait to learn more before making any decisions - Herb Hernandez

Robert, well, metaphorically. Whether its a few months or a year - Stephen Pickering

Tomy: Twitter is like Facebook but without likes and comments. Oh, wait, Facebook is a lot like FriendFeed already. I just commented on Louis Gray's item there. Oh, and there's applications. We can play games! :-) Herb: I'll try to go see the team next week. I'm also interviewing Yelp. - Robert Scoble

But Steve, what if the larger "playground" turns out to be very different from the one pitched to them? What if the FF team finds that their vision isn't shared after all? - Bruce Lewis

Robert, ok maybe you are right. Maybe it will be like the R&D. That would be great! - Stephen Pickering

Stephen: are you trying to get on the Gillmor Gang? We seem to kill things before they are really dead there too. - Robert Scoble

Hey Robert , you make friendfeed slower ! I guess you should leave here really x) - Melissa Taylor

Anyway, I'm going drinking. For real this time. - Robert Scoble

Robert, HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHA - Stephen Pickering

they can go build it again. but zuckerberg has been wanting this for some time - Steve Gillmor

need to wait what will happen to FF - Toni @ NavinoT

I'm planning on easing out of Friendfeed in the next couple of days, so I can get the contacts of people I know on here and who's opinions I value. - Jon, the Chilled Beartato

Pickering: RSS is dead, not FF - Steve Gillmor

Steve, oh yes, If I were him, I would pull out all stops to get this team. I totally understand from a business perspective, all perspectives - Stephen Pickering

business is design - Steve Gillmor

HAHAHA great comeback Steve. On that note I think I'll have a beer. :) - Bryan Lee

Steve, OK, I'll keep the faith that maybe Scoble's idea that this could be a Facebook R&D could happen. That would be great!!!! - Stephen Pickering

Steve, did you see the post about this being an opportunity for Google Reader? I think it was by Jorge Escobar. - Bruce Lewis

Reading through all this is hilarious. We really should have a social media reality show Robert - Jeunelle Foster

no bruce, how so - Steve Gillmor

Jeunelle, Robert went drinking :) - Stephen Pickering

So he ain't all that. Just kidding hehehehe :) - Jeunelle Foster

He was saying Reader has most of the features of FF, and this could be their chance to expand and fill the niche FF filled: http://friendfeed.com/social-... - Bruce Lewis

disagree bruce GR has no explicit contract with users - Steve Gillmor

Contract or contact? - Bryan Lee

Wave might be boosted, but has similar immaturity at the social graph level - Steve Gillmor

I don't understand the part about the contract. - Bruce Lewis

If Ning is 750m why FF is just 50m ? - Johni Fisher

users consciously contribute metadata to FF - Steve Gillmor

Do we want Google to buy Twitter? - Stephen Pickering

@Steve @Bruce, here's the post http://jungleg.com/2009... -- it's a crazy idea but GR could make an extra effort and put up a better web experience - Jorge Escobar

I like FriendFeed, a lot, but too few of my friends use the service to make it really useful. So I guess I'll leave. - Adam Washington

Adam, stay, if even only for the aggregating features - Stephen Pickering

You are testing us Scoble. - Özer (Wrzl) Dölekoğlu

YES he's sitting in the back laughing while drinking Peppermint Schnaps - Jeunelle Foster

Scobles outta here. He went to get a life! hehehehehehehe - Stephen Pickering

totally staying....this really is just the beginning....and, i just built FF into all of my Intro to Soc sections!!!! - Chad Gesser

I thought you said you'd hand in there until they turn the last server off. What changed your mind? - Paul Chaney

Speaking of Google. What was the point of them buying Jaiku and doing nothing with it? - Bryan Lee

I'll at least stay for aggregation and extending 140 character tweets, and pray maybe it will become Facebooks R&D, but I know that's a longshot - Stephen Pickering

I should get a life too but alas the temptation is too great for "attention whoring" - Jeunelle Foster

Jeunelle HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH - Stephen Pickering

hehehe lol - Jeunelle Foster

Regarding the "team's plans", I really don't expect to hear anything from Bret, Paul, et al. At this point I'm happy to let the Facebook (i.e. the non-FriendFeed) folks try to convince me that they're ready to do things differently. That involves more than just hiring a team. - Ken Sheppardson

Well, maybe Paul can influence Mark not "to be evil" - Stephen Pickering

those who think FB has any choice but to go down the FF road are not thinking this through - Steve Gillmor

@Stephen, I was alternating between friendfeed and twitter (stones and beatles, respectively :P) but I don't see the point in staying with a dying technology, which unfortunately is where friendfeed is headed. The tech of friendfeed itself will hopefully live on in facebook. I really think facebook has become a slightly less obnoxious version of myspace, and that's being nice. - Tomy Thomson

Steve, Oh, I totally understand. It was genius of them. Proves how Mark is indeed Master of the Universe - Stephen Pickering

Steve, self-interest does not guarantee anything. People and companies can act irrationally. - Bruce Lewis

So Steve, do you see two separate properties indefinitely? Or does Facebook just slowly start too look more FF-like, then one day they redirect friendfeed.com to facebook.com? - Ken Sheppardson

yes bruce take twitter for example - Steve Gillmor

But Paul could end up being a great influence on Mark - Stephen Pickering

not indefinitely Ken, but long enough to transfer enough value to avoid making twitter look like the good guys - Steve Gillmor

Steve, will Google buy Twitter? - Stephen Pickering

you're "VERY excited" about the deal, but plan to leave friendfeed? why, exactly? i don't get it... - Shawn C. Reed

dunno, don't really care - Steve Gillmor

*eye roll* thread is getting to the point where it's too long and people are now asking questions that have been answered thrice.....Lock down time. - Matthew DeVries

ff was the important value, not twitter - Steve Gillmor

Steve, why didn't Ff take over FB? Yeah Facebook has the money, but it's the inferior product. - Matthew DeVries

Oh sure, who do you want in your office, Ev or Paul Bucheit? Paulllllll! - Stephen Pickering

Stephen, didn't the TechCrunch article say that the FF team would be split between two bosses, neither of which was Mark? - Bruce Lewis

matthew who says they didn't - Steve Gillmor

That's right. Paul may end up running that thing, or at least be No.2 - Stephen Pickering

@ Robert: The majority of apps on FB are useless imo. Every time I log on I get bombarded by 'add your relative' and 'blackjack' app requests. And don't get my started on the quizzes and other BS. Ah well, I will join your fan page on facebook! - Tomy Thomson

ff has been running dev for a year - Steve Gillmor

Wow - isn't this jumping to conclusions? No one has said anything's going away, nor do we know what they're doing to do with it. Stick around, wait to see what happens, then jump. Nothing's happened yet - I think it will all be for the better in the end and you'll know where to go when the FF Team says Jump. - Jesse Stay

Kurt, he's gonna sit on it for a while, see what shakes out - Stephen Pickering

jesse skip to the bottom for the apology - Steve Gillmor

The FF Team hasn't let us down yet, have they? I still trust them - only when they break that trust do we jump. - Jesse Stay

@Scobleizer I've been on Google Wave for about a week working on an interesting idea I have for it. It's very promising but its very alpha right now. You won't find it worth your time just yet. - Noah White

jumping is bullshit, no place to go - Steve Gillmor

Ah - sorry Robert - didn't see the clarification towards the bottom. Thanks Steve. - Jesse Stay

Jesse, you still in the Boston area? - Bruce Lewis

Why rush to judgment? Even if the "team's plans" are off-base, what's the base? And what's off? Experience, resourcefulness, respect for users and smarts under fire all matter more than "plans." Wait & keep seeing. - Doc

What the hell? Just because someone buys FriendFeed everyone has to ditch it? ABORT SHIP, ABORT SHIP! Doesn't really make sense so soon. Has anything changed yet? Is it the end of the world? Don't just leave because everyone says they will either. Stick around, the ship is still afloat. - Nick Humphries

the doctor is in the house - Steve Gillmor

But, if they did pull the plug, with bandwidth and computing halving every year, there would be another one of these pop up in no time - Stephen Pickering

I don't see a point in leaving Friendfeed until the doors close on us... if and when that happens. - Alex Knight

Actually facebook is the most popular rss reader of all time :) - Christian Burns from iPhone

Bruce, we just left today. I'm actually in Niagara Falls, NY right now. Just finished watching a beautiful view of the Falls at night. - Jesse Stay

There's a house? - Doc

Steve, is that Doc Searls? - Stephen Pickering

of cards - Steve Gillmor

hover over the name stephen - Steve Gillmor

Jesse, if anybody can persuade me (us?) that Facebook is going to be good for the FF team it's you. Maybe write a blog post or something. - Bruce Lewis

Don't get so close. - Doc

unfollow please sidney - Steve Gillmor

Doc, Calacanis recommended your book to his audience on THis Week in Startups. Can't wait to read it! - Stephen Pickering

I just left facebook a couple weeks ago - hope friendfeed doesn't devolve into quizzes and walled gardens - Doug Holton

It's the Gillmor Gang in a perpendicular universe. - Doc

yes it is - Steve Gillmor

and about fucking time - Steve Gillmor

Stephen, make sure it's the *new* 10th anniversary edition of Cluetrain. Both it and the old one are being sold. 8 extra chapters in the new. - Doc

No doubt, Steve - Christian Burns from iPhone

I'm in it to win it. FF isn't shutting down tomorrow or next week. But it's funny to me that so many dicuss the content... It's the connections made with others that are in jeopardy, not the LOLCat photos... - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from fftogo

Because of Quantum Wave effects there are an infinite number of Universes, some of which The Gillmor Gang is still broadcasting - Stephen Pickering

Bruce, I'll be working on a post really soon. Also, Louis Gray and I are going to record a phone call about it tomorrow, which I think should prove useful. I've got a lot of knowledge about Facebook, and he does about FriendFeed. - Jesse Stay

we never stopped stephen - Steve Gillmor

Heheheheheheheheh - Stephen Pickering

JFC, I was gonna go to bed, and here we are. Wherever this is. Do we all really live in Scoble's butt? - Doc

Doc comes through with yet another metonym: the perpendicular universe (= FF). - Nick in Manila

I would have had something out sooner but I've been driving a car all day. :-) - Jesse Stay

no it's Marshall McLuhan's butt - Steve Gillmor

Is this SRC? - Doc

Kurt, oh yeah, I totally get that and so does Scoble, but you've got to understand his short term hurt. Look at how much energy he put into this thing, and what did he get? Nuttin - Stephen Pickering

You mean McLuhan is in Scoble's body? He's in the movie Being Robert Scoble? - Doc

Nonsense Stephen he gets paid in attention every single time - Steve Gillmor

Social relay chat? - Christian Burns from iPhone

No who's on first - Steve Gillmor

Scoble Relay Chat. - Doc

the medium is the message - Steve Gillmor

OK, OK, Steve. I admit, I listened to Dave Winer's chat this evening about it - Stephen Pickering

yeah I read the liner notes instead - Steve Gillmor

Confessions of Stephen and Steve - Jeunelle Foster

And the medium is the network? - Stephen Pickering

Are we paying Scoble now? Are we his excreta and are those a form of currency? - Doc

as richard manuel used to say the check's in yr mouth - Steve Gillmor

Doc, HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA - Stephen Pickering

I thought it was "the check is coming in your mouth." Just looking for accuracy here. - Doc

no, doc it's a contraction of 2 of the 3 promises - Steve Gillmor

I forget what the 3rd is - Steve Gillmor

I'll love you in the morning? - Doc

could be - Steve Gillmor

Well, it's almost morning here. I'll tape this show and watch later. G'night or g'morning, all. - Doc

Goodnight, Doc! - Stephen Pickering

I was wondering how long this would take to happen. Soon as I saw FF being purchased by Facebook I knew you would bolt. Not 100% surprising. - Christopher Mercer

Part of beauty of FF: all their shows are taped. And yet open ended. - Nick in Manila

It depends how much FF changes. No reason to leave until and unless it gets annoying. - Igor Goldkind

It's "I'll respect you in the morning." - Sean Gallagher

Oh, I'm not leaving. Hell, I even still have a myspace account. It's just a question of engagement - Stephen Pickering

Good night all. Tip for Jeunelle: You get more attention if you make your feed public. Make a group for your private stuff. - Bruce Lewis

they'll have to scrub this one pretty good before they shut it down - Steve Gillmor

Maybe Jeunelle doesn't want attention. - Sean Gallagher

Hell, they keep Orkut going. Storage and bandwidth keep getting cheaper. Might as well keep this going - Stephen Pickering

Orkut! The favorite social network of 9 out of 10 Brazilians. - Sean Gallagher

And 9 out 10 of the best looking women! - Stephen Pickering

True. - Sean Gallagher

@scobleizer that means half of the total activity on friendfeed will be reduced - Sidharth Dassani

Maybe if Facebook hadn't stolen all Scoble's data, he'd stop worrying and learn to love them. - Sean Gallagher

Actually even os Brasileiros are coming over to FB - Stephen Pickering

My mother is on Facebook. The end is nigh. - Sean Gallagher

"Maybe Jeunelle doesn't want attention" - says who? I only stepped away to pour me a nice glass of Sauvengion Blanc", and thank you Bruce for the advice I'll look into that tomorrow. After all tomorrow is another day. Twiddly Dee - Jeunelle Foster

there is no reason to leave. I seriously doubt facebook will kill it. - Logan Lindquist

What's the record number of comments? - Stephen Pickering

Logan, I hope your right - Stephen Pickering

Maybe if I blog my twitter of Scoble's FriendFeed and then link it from Facebook via a Digg of a del.icio.us bookmark, it will create a singularity and this thread will have never happened. - Sean Gallagher

What about Identi.ca? - Jerry Heiselman

Sean, you may even create a time machine! - Stephen Pickering

Can someone comment on what April Russo said about Facebook content policy? Seems like a very important piece of the puzzle. - metalerik

I wouldn't worry about it. The markets will take care of it. If Facebook becomes evil, the masses will fork somewhere else. We're in the age of Openness - Stephen Pickering

I will only leave friend feed if it becomes a facebook clone. I can't stand facebook but I still use it cause my friends and family use it, but if friendfeed becomes annoying like face book then I see no point in staying here. - Colide81 (James) from iPhone

James, Touche - Stephen Pickering

You know Sean maybe smarter than he looks....hmmmmm :) and what's with that bird head? - Jeunelle Foster

Quote of the Day: "Microsoft and Twitter deserve each other. They are both somewhat buggy and don't come up with new features very often. ;-)" - Robert Scoble - Diego Barros 

It's a starling fledgeling. The perfect symbol for social networking-- it eats whatever you give it, then poops on you. - Sean Gallagher

That's what I want to reincarnate as....an angry poopin bird - Jeunelle Foster

Just reading all the news about FF and FB. Disapoints me personally, biz wise nice job. Um not a huge FB user so I don't know what my plans are yet. Like you wait a bit and see.... - Bryan Thatcher from iPhone

I hope FF doesn't go away and fold in to FB. I don't need FB. It's like bringing a machine gun to a knife fight. - Diego Barros 

I won't leave FF until they make me or there's no community left. Whichever comes first. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

We'll never get to talk to Robert Scoble again. :-( - Jannifer @wordsforliving

Well, it's made me think twice about vesting too much into any one service (so has the demise of tr.im). I use Facebook, Twitter, Livejournal, and FF all pretty equally, so I guess I'm not feeling this as much as some. - Bill Kinney

on to Google Wave. - Jason Wilson from BuddyFeed

Jannifer, Yes we will on his JS-Kit Echo commenting system he will put on his blog. It's real time like this - Stephen Pickering

I'm leaving. Google Wave, Twitter, Reader will plenty suffice now. Farewell, former friend. - Californian

Oh Stephen - I'm not sure what that is... but it won't be like Friendfeed. :-( - Jannifer @wordsforliving

At some point I imagine I will. I have no interest in joining facebook. When I do depends on what facebook does with ff. - Quasar

I'm sticking around till FB screws it up. But I was keeping FF separate from FB because most of my FB friends are my born-again Christian relatives who won't like the controversial stuff of mine that makes it onto FF's news feed. Still, I'm going to look for other similar sites. Posterous is one. - Dennis Jernberg

I really want a Google Wave invite now.. - Peter

I'm not leaving but I'm not moving to Facebook. The main thing for me is to keep the contacts I've gained from FriendFeed and hope we all can meet on another similar service somewhere somehow. - Kol Tregaskes

Ditto what Kol just said. - LogEx

ditto on the Google wave invite - Kim

you hit the nail on the head there Kol - Kim

Maybe. But i really want Google Wave invite. - ★ Soner Gönül

It's hard to say at this point. The only thing that's changed is who pays the server bill. Ask me in a week. And yes, a Google Wave invite would sure go a long way to make this better for me. - Dale

Joined Posterous. http://jbug.posterous.com Wouldn't mind a Google Wave invite, though... - Dennis Jernberg

Me too, Dennis. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

I don't leave if Facebook doesn't make something dramamatic to FF - Kristian Salonen

I will wait and see. - Matt G

Leaving a favorite site isn't always a conscious decision for me. The cool site loses its cool and you just kind of drift off. - Dale from email

Oh yeah, and I added my Posterous blog to my FriendFeed feed, so you'll be seeing whatever I post there in your home feed here. That is, if you subscribe to me here, or if one of your subscribers likes or comments. Me, leave? Not yet! ;) - Dennis Jernberg

I'll be sticking around just a little while longer. - April Russo (app103)

I'm here for the duration - Charlie Anzman

I'm loyal until they make it worth me leaving. - Jesse Stay

I'm here until they slam the gates shut. But I am hiding all your BS posts about it being a good thing :) - jcunwired

If you want to be sure that I quit Friendfeed you have to see my burial. I will never quit while being alive! :-) - Kolja

I'm staying but it's like when you know that the company you work for has been bought by someone else and might close it, you lose motivation and start looking for another job, it's hard to invest time and energy if there might be no future. Not that the future of FF was guaranteed before but now it does not look good at all. - M F

I'm heading to Plurk! who's with me? *tumbleweed* - Iain Baker

Like I said before, I'm staying here until the end. - Mathew™ one of a kind

Friendfeed is two totally different things: the original RSS aggregation service, and a social network service/community. Lifestream.fm is a reasonable replacement for the former. As to the latter, it's the people, not the tech they're using, that makes FF special. I've benefited greatly as a 'consumer' here, reading posts - if that continues on Facebook, it will probably get me to... more... - SteamCentral

i'll be around until it becomes unbearable, probly until it's been damaged badly by FB style feature creep and riddled with ads and spammers. oh, and absolutely stupid censorship policies. that'll be a real killer. - Joe Silence is not dead

The CloneFeed group has given me some interest. It gives some hope in case FF really goes away or merges badly with FB. I like FB but just don't want to fully mix the two activities/audiences. - manielse (Mark Nielsen)

Go to posterous. Here is mine: http://pingmicro.com/ - Svartling from iPhone

I'd rather keep my Friendfeed as my "professional aggregation" and Facebook as personal stuff. I blog, tweet, etc. stuff that a lot of my friends could care less about. And I post stuff to Facebook that isn't interesting or relevant to clients / followers. - Gregg Le Blanc

Google Wave is what I am looking for. The problem with moving to Facebook is that I use it for close friends and family so things like comments and pics etc that I post to it I would not want to have available to all of the contacts I have on FF at the moment. Mainly because I like to separate those I know from those that I converse with if that makes sense. I loved that on FF I could... more... - Travis Koger

Whilst I am not 'leaving' FF, I will not be investing anywhere near the type of interaction I have done previous to yesterday's announcement as I just see it as wasted time. - Travis Koger

I have to wait & see what, I don't want to lose the community; where do I go? This feels like Pownce all over! - clarke thomas

not me. - Edward Barnieh

Nope, not yet. I still dream about FF and FB to coexist. I think Facebook is even more boring now, after this announcement. Anyone else feels this way? - Patrik Johansson

Not me. I will be glad when all the people who say they are leaving do so my feed won't be full of people saying they are leaving. - Alan Simpson

What becomes of the broken hearted? - Joe Dawson

I'm staying on! - Charles Lau

FF is my first big social networking investment (or time) - I'll stay and then move, if forced. I'll certainly investigate other tools in an effort to fill any gap left by FaceFeed. - Jason Miller

I just saw that a woman's twittering her childbirth made the front page of BBC's world news webpage. I don't know to make of it, but I don't want to hang out at Twitter much anymore. - Mitch

won´t leave!!! i LOVE friendfeed. @Mitch i know what you mean. So many stories and this is the one they picked? - Flynn (Michael A. Volz)

i think i'm stayin, and wait what's goin on facebook. i will feel upset if they dont allow the users to make their choice of using one or other site, but looks like they gonna force to use FB instead of FF :( - Dani Martínez

Not sure how on board with FriendFeed I ever was to begin with to be honest... - Gurpreet

FriendFeed will be fine - FaceBook is fine - and so is Twitter - I might check out AmpliFeeder, I suspect quite a few FriendFeeders will migrate there as the days go by. - Chris Loft

Not leaving FF but I can't wait till it's properly integrated with Facebook. Interesting thing: Wave's API is open so there's nothing to stop Facebook creating an app to make Facebook & Wave work great together. Not so much either/or as and... and..! - Matt Moran

Has anyone tried amplifeeder? edit: so far don't see any friending abilities though - metalerik

Why leave? But will be open to see other options - facebook doesn't (currently) provide to me what I get here. - amygeek

Facebook bought friendfeed http://adage.com/digital... - Rob Johnson

OH NO, I just finish moving all my stuff HERE! - Terence

Robert: I closed down my embeds today. Sad for my blog. - Mark Essel

I stay on FriendFeed, on Twitter, on Facebook, etc. - Emmanuel Gadenne

I won't delete my account, but as FF morphs into the ball of confusion that is Facebook, I won't be very active. - Jeremy Brooks

I will. No point sticking around when you know it is going to die sooner or later. With twitter you still have the hope.... - Davide D'Incau

I'll leave Facebook if FF gets harmed. And go back to Identi.ca... ;-) - Torrid Luna

Yeah, I'll probably leave Facebook too. If they're going to "steal" the FriendFeed functions and just let FF die, I will not have any sympathies left for Facebook. I'll go "all Google" or something. - Patrik Johansson

I'll stay on FF, FB and T, and BK, and other, BrightKite is not well utilised, is good even on beta. - Andy Ghozali

I joined posterous for blogging/lifestreaming and will continue to use twitter. I might go on facebook once in a while, which is what I was doing anyway. - Tomy Thomson

Robert: If you're looking for an awesome real-time discussion platform, you should migrate to Fluther. http://www.fluther.com - Ben

I'm staying put and watching the ship sink. I'd really like to believe that FriendFeed will have some longevity, but I won't hedge my bets. - Tyson Key

Steve Gillmor said "clue to the denouement: where is the most valuable processing of this event. Right here." so for now, FF looks like the space. - Barbara K. Iverson

I intend to stick around to see what Facebook have planned. I think the takeover has everything to do with the direction FB's been heading in lately, what with their open challenge to Twitter - Dennis Jernberg

I don't see it as leaving, but rather seeing the possibility that it might leave us. FF was and still is just about my favorite site and uberaggregatorthing that I ever saw.... - Rob Schieber

+100 Rob Schieber - Tyson Key

I will stay. Facebook will not Win. - TheHenry

Nope... I'll stay, even if I ride it to a bitter end. - Mark "DerBingle" J

depends. if they stay seperate services, i wont like the acquisition,but i'll stay. if they become 1 service, i'm out. and where is every1 going from friend feed anyhow. what else is there? - echostreamer

Will wait and see what happens with FB - Ted Kinzer

fb ruins everything. Have the Privacy policy "not "changed since fb came into the pic? Can they not build their own ideas instead of buying everyone else's? leave us geeks to play in our playground and stay in yours. greedy buggers. The second they pull a skanky fb move i'm out. bitches. - seastarerrin

I'm here till the ship goes down. - Lee Watters

Leaving no. Checking out other venues yes. - Martha

Just maybe Facebook will listen to the Friendfeed engineers in charge of user interface/usability starting with the type size and fonts. Not all marriages are made in heaven. Culture clashes are sure to pop up. - Alan Morris

I am leaving Web - Back to Telnet - Dominique Rabeuf

Dominique, too late. The web already assimilated it with the telnet: url schema. - Bruce Lewis

Hell no, not leaving. Best service on the web. - Christopher Galtenberg from iPhone

I was about to focus a little more on FF but since I heard about the purchase and read rumors about FF being integrated in FB and being shutdown and all this, I'm getting a little ... well.. undecided.. Just checked Streamy, didn't like it. If a.tinythread.com get's more development, this might be the next thing to migrate to. I'm sure not moving to FaceBook.

I wish more folks would see the big picture. We need to focus on independent projects that are NOT part of the Google-Yahoo-Microsoft borg.

It's a gamble, of course, to pay up front without experiencing the game or even knowing if it something more than crap (as happens with MMOs...). However, it's a good looking deal for the prices (make an account and login to see those, $199.99 life, $60 six-month). - Michael W. May

I've tried to figure out how to say what I'm going to say without it sounding bitchy, but it's not working... You've made me doubt that there's a game coming out any time in the near-ish future that you're actually going to like. Every game you talk about you're negative about, including the ones that haven't even made it to beta yet. If it's not the game itself, it's the community. I don't expect you to like Aion. I pretty much figured you wouldn't. - QuintLyn

That's okay. No game is for everyone. But I have to be honest, listening to you guys complain every day gets old and it's why I rarely come in here anymore. - QuintLyn

I see how it is :( - Thac0 from iPhone

You tell em Q lol, ya can't be mad at me though....I'm a console gamer:) - KatanOmega

I know Q, its our fault are standards are too high. Everyone talks about third generation MMOs, but I barely think we are in generation 0.5 yet.

I'm not angry. Nor was I intending to bicker. I just find the constant negativity and daily proclamations of games being dead or all of them sucking tiring. If you really don't enjoy something that much, there's really no reason to do it. I actually like everyone here fine. I just don't see the point in beating a dead horse. - QuintLyn

What are we supposed to do? - SquirrelsOfWar

Well.. You had some interesting ideas on game design the other day. Start writing them up and submitting them to game companies or something. Just sitting in here complaining about games won't get anything done. In the end all it does is make you look like someone who's only involved in games to have something to complain about. - QuintLyn

I might just start my own blog or something. - SquirrelsOfWar

That's really not a bad idea, if done right. - QuintLyn

Yeah I have some ideas. - SquirrelsOfWar

I know FF is just a temporary solution - SquirrelsOfWar

That's the thing. I know you have some cool ideas on how to improve games. And there's a good portion of things I do agree with you about. Like the TOR-PvP argument. And put out there in the right way, those thoughts and ideas could do some serious growing. - QuintLyn

Yeah, I'll get it done. I know I dont exactly co-exist harmoniously with Gannon. - SquirrelsOfWar

lol Well.. The truth is that when it comes to games, we're all looking for different things in them. - QuintLyn

and gannon is looking for squirrelshate - SquirrelsOfWar

I should call the rspca or whatever the US equivalent is - SquirrelsOfWar

I've never thought Gary's had a problem with you personally. You guys just happen to disagree on a lot of things when it comes to games. - QuintLyn

I know Gary doesnt really like me, but thats ok, not everyone has to like everything. - SquirrelsOfWar

but its ok - SquirrelsOfWar

I don't think he dislikes you. I just think that he's with me on the opinion that you come off as highly negative a lot of the time. - QuintLyn

Thats because 2009 has been quite a low year for the industry as a hole. Recession has lead to projects being cancelled, new IPs dying away, and more games being pushed back in hopes the economy recovered, or being pushed up to, franky, ludacrous price points - SquirrelsOfWar

It doesnt bode well when Activision, the largest publisher, makes its new standard pricing model $90. - SquirrelsOfWar

I can't even remember the last Activision game I played. - QuintLyn

Well, everyone and their mother is going to buy Modern Warfare 2, then some Exec is going to say "Hey look, $90 works!", and thats going to be a dangerous time.... - SquirrelsOfWar

Unfortunatly, not everyone follows the "vote with your wallet" philosophy - SquirrelsOfWar

I think what they'll end up realizing in the end is that that may work for certain games, but it certainly won't work for all. You're going to be looking at a game that has a big enough install base of dedicated players that stick to specific types of games. - QuintLyn

Instead of "good games costing more" they should ahve gone with "bad games cost less" - SquirrelsOfWar

But I think we all know when it doesnt work for all games, they will cry "Piracy!!!" to the roof - SquirrelsOfWar

I know I wouldn't be buying it no matter what it costed. Neither would my roommate. He'd just rent it from Gamefly. - QuintLyn

*no matter what it cost, rather. - QuintLyn

But I'd much rather spend $10-$20 on an indie game like World of Goo or Dead Dishwasher than $60 on most AAA games. - QuintLyn
