Jacque and Ashiker, my comment is totally tongue in cheek from a prior follow / unfollow discussion. I follow Robert because I like to hear what he has to say not because he does or doesn't follow back.
- Martha
Martha, exactly. But I also would like him to "hear" what I am saying as well. Robert ;)
- Jacque
I look at it like this: most of the people I follow I would prefer to have follow me as well, because I am looking for mutual sharing and conversation. If I am trying to engage and I am not getting anything back from a person in this group, then I might unfollow. But there is another group that I follow because it is more important for me to hear what they have to say than engage in...

I think it's funny that some folks aren't getting the joke. :-) Subtlety doesn't always translate in 140 characters.

I can listen to folks I find interesting, whether or not they listen to me.

And now that Twitter's down, everyone can write their own blog post on why they're unfollowing their tens of thousands of followers ;-)

Agreed Darius. Scoble and the other big movers may not follow me, but I can listen to them and glean information that I find informative, even if they don't "follow" me. For people like me that can't be on FF or Twitter a lot during the day at work, I can still keep informed.

There are multiple ways to Rome... so also multiple ways to suc6. It will not change anything!

The "product so good we don’t need sales or marketing" philosophy was also referenced in the Sarah Lacy book "Once Your Lucky, Twice You're Good". Which by the way is a good read.

Time Machine backed up my laptop and old iMac. But, the visualization is an overkill and I'd like to manually include things, not exclude.

Friendfeed needs mini profiles like Twitter has.

True. One sentence would be enough. Maybe location as well?

There's a part of me that likes the leveling aspect of ff - without profiles, you either know the person by her name or reputation established elsewhere, or her content speaks for itself. But I'd also like to do some networking here and profiles make it easier to search and find people who are doing the same thing.
- Todd Mundt
Yeah, shouldn't be too hard to add that. I'd love to also see a blurb about FF'ers in the little popup box when you hover over the username.
- Paul Short
It would certainly save going to Twitter to read their bio and check out their website.

The assumption is that the bio is useful. Ultimately I've relied more on what a person posts than what their bio says.
- Todd Jordan
Don't add mini-profiles! I like how FriendFeed sticks to basics (it's "core competencies"). I enjoy looking at people's LinkedIn/Twitter/Facebook pages for the other info. However, a pop-up with some mini-profile stuff might be helpful (ala Sally Church). Just don't clutter people's main pages with more stuff like most other social networks.
- Mitchell Tsai
very true. at least a fields for real name and an url
- kosmar
yes, i agree on that. Maybe even a more detailed profile page?...via feedalizr
- Ryo / Fuck Facebook
Why ? I never looked at them in Twitter except to find a pointer to a blog or website to determine the legitimacy of individuals. FF has pointers to find blogs/twitter feeds and more. You are what you post!
- Brian Sullivan
totally agree. impossible to know who is the personn subscribing to your feed by just scrawling his feeds
- Ouriel Ohayon
yes, that is what we need, another profile to up date (can't wait for data portability). I always simply go check the profiles of users at Twitter, LinkedIn or their blog before subscribing.
- Lou Paglia
Well, a suggestion - couldn't FF just import the short Twitter bio? It does take time checking people out first. I was/am wary of randomly connecting, check out the Twitter blacklist too and avoided a couple of people that way. What happened to Ariel could happen to any other female on here, so caveat emptor.
- Sally Church
they also need a real alert system to enable the monitoring of interaction on your feed. right now i have no IDEA when someone likes something or leaves a comment. I need to check my own feed manually every now and then
- Ouriel Ohayon
Definitely import the Twitter profile. I would appreciate the snapshot of who the person is without having to go dig in the feeds.
- Judi Sohn
@ouriel: I second that point. I'd like to be notified when someone comments on my posted items. Not even sure that's RSS-able in here, is it?
- Bryan Person

- Erhan Erdogan
I think I don't need it now. Because I know all of my friends, if I need more info, I can check their other profiles.
- Eren Emre Kanal
What I would like in FF is the ability to block at the individual blog level. It would be handy for people with more than one blog (especially when some are in languages other than English or blogs are personal/business) and you are interested in following only some.

nice post Scoble...I like the freebie "secrets" that Brian didn't share LOL - great stuff!
- Susan Beebe
The best PR: create an uber useful product that targets people who (a) have large audiences and (b) can't keep quiet about using it. Eg, FF targeting Robert Scoble. :-)
- Ranjit Mathoda
I'll just point people to my comment on your blog and Loic's post so I don't repeat myself, again.
- Andrew Feinberg
Terrific post Robert. I see some Tipping Point thinking there (re: influentials).
- Hutch Carpenter
Ranjit... FriendFeed didn't target Robert Scoble. But the idea is good.
