It's very addictive - once you get into it. At least it's not a "time-waster". The wealth of information and news I find here is valuable for me.

I am learning how to use it effectively, as well as for fun. It seems to be able to do both now that rooms have been added.

What is so great about friendfeed is it is a depository of all the popular social medias online. It does not replace any of them. For example to really use twitter, you much either go to twitter's website or use 3rd party software like Twirl. I love friendfeed because I can share what I read online with others very easily.

Yep, for someone whose not that tech-savvy it can be somewhat difficult to comprehend but with agile high-speed minds like me, it's like boxing for 15 years and being in your greatest shape (don't ask me about reminding me that simple real-life responsibilities where I do suck have specific schedules and patterns to follow, contrary to the undefined sleep timeline of the web)

I think FriendFeed is Twitter 2-3 years. With much better implementation. So it is a great place to be in

So where are Todd and Mike going to go? Mogulus? Mogulus does not seem to load very well for me ... maybe it is all those UStream.TV people moving to Mogulus!

Stickam has a lot of adult termed stuff on it, so I would stay away from it if you want to remain family friendly.

Actually Mike talk to Brad over this and they are going to keep there until it is determined what type of opt-out solutions. Brad said something to sharing revenue and other such payment options. Even something like 100 to 400$ amount not to display ads!!

If you are into socialization online, then try using Flock. It is a Firefox based browser with added programs that makes socializing online a lot easier. Flock can use most Firefox addons.

I wonder if there is really a privacy issue online. What you do not give out online can never be known online. Have a good firewall, avti-virus, spyware software, and watch out for scams. If one uses common sense online as in day-to-day life, then one does not need to worry about privacy issues.

I agree it should allow the audience to really Jell

Hey Todd, another great place for the Ohana to participate in the Geek News Central podcast happenings.

I just watched the round table and enjoyed what was visible through gottomeeting. I wouldn't use it often enough to get the service myesef but I really enjoyed the recording. How is that aspect done (recording)
- Mike Abair
Just saw the roundtable. I really enjoyed it. Lot of work from Andy to review the HP UMPC.
