"thanks louis! looking forward to making bit.ly even more kick ass" - gregory

I think it's been that way for a while. - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah

I wasn't seeing updates from Twitter to Friendfeed for 12 hours, but a manual refresh works ok. It is interesting to note the differences in 'real time' for Friendfeed, Twitter and FaceBook they all behave differently - only one of them seems to be 'real' real time -\ - Chris Loft

"Hey Tim, I'm using the WP Syntax plugin. I think it is resolving the formatting issue. You can grab it here http://wordpress.org/extend..." - gregory

"Hi Louis, thanks for providing your perspective. I can appreciate that Friendfeed hasn't fulfilled it's potential for some folks, though I find myself using it more and more everyday. To the hispters comment.. I have definitely heard hipsters make the exact same argument about bands once they get big and I continue to stand behind it being an accurate comparison. I'm certainly not suggesting that early adopters aren't necessary, but there is a danger with relying on them for long term growth." - gregory

"If the folks who made my cable box spent even 1 second debating the 'halting problem' and not writing better code that doesn't leak memory, I can see why it needed to be restarted :) But seriously, that is an interesting issue. As we move forward in time, it's more and more likely that programs will never halt as they are integrated into our daily lives and routines. Though I would have a hard time proving that mathematically. Regardless, we are becoming more and more dependent on the software that powers our lives. Humans may rest, sleep or relax, but that only halt when they die. Luckily for software, it can be restarted." - gregory

"It's definitely true that when it comes to civil engineering, the construction is a critical component. But in those cases, there isn't a worry that another company is going to come along and "eat your lunch". If the product never ships, there will be no site to enjoy... or ever come back too. I'm definitely not suggesting that if you know how to write it correctly, you should be lazy. But if you can bootstrap and achieve solid results, whether or not the code is perfect is secondary.. it's personal." - gregory

"have to give you props. You definitely got me with the sensationalist headline, then bored me to tears with a restraining order violation case. Yawn." - gregory

Wow! - Micah Wittman

Let me know if you see any bugs / issues with the plugin or have a particular feature in mind. - gregory

I'm using it on my personal homepage (which is mainly a testing ground). Working great! http://jasonhuebel.name - Jason, Incognito

very cool! I'm going to give it a spin. - Richard pancakhaus Walker

awesome, thanks for sending this script. I tried to write something that didn't use any global vars, but this is pretty neat. I also hope to implement the comment API directly into the plugin in the future that let's you comment without having to return to friendfeed. - gregory

This is pretty lame, I really wish Hollywood would get a business model that works in the digital age! - gregory

The use of '@' seems a little, Twitter-esque to me. Between Facebook lite and this new tagging system, it seems Facebook's innovation are simply jealousy of other companies. Is the grass really greener Facebook? - gregory

"awesome" - gregory

"Sorry about that, fixed now, it's here http://gregorytomlinson.com/encoded......" - gregory

"pretty sleazy outright jacking anutron's original content. you give the internet a bad name" - gregory

this is great! a band that doesn't agree with the labels! - gregory

"this is my favorite some off this ablum" - gregory

"i concur, band was awesome, crowd blew - and not in a good way ;) I'll think twice about visiting this venue in the future" - gregory

"Hi, sorry to hear you're having trouble. I sent you an email asking for more info so I can take a look and get it fixed! thanks!" - gregory

"thanks giannii, you need to update the page in wordpress then: http://wordpress.org/extend...... In the right column it reads: Compatible up to: 2.6.1" - gregory

"i agree, this hurts legitimate commenters more than hurting spammers. I'm not ready to ditch disqus yet. But would really like to see better action taken. Can't you tie into Akismet? Also, this latest plugin is only tested to wordpress 2.6.1? I hope this is a typo in the release and you mean 2.7.1 (the latest) Finally, have you guys had a chance to fix track backs on wordpress? I spoke to a developer a few times about it and i'm more than happy to help and let you use my blog as a test-bed. thanks!" - gregory

"Hi Simon, I sent you an email with the latest version attached. Thanks for your interest!" - gregory

"the show was awesome!! can't wait till they return to NYC :)" - gregory

"great to know. I'm certainly no jQuery expert :)" - gregory

"thanks david, so if it's not the equivalent - is it as fast?" - gregory

"Sure Steve, I'll send it to you via email. thanks for your interest!" - gregory

"totally, that was the first thing I did when I finished the plugin :)" - gregory

"excellent post! I bug dan kantor about this all the time and insisted on a non-blocking async js loader for the Wordpress version. That said, for most people, they want to paste in one line of code. Check out the wordpress version currently in beta" - gregory

"It's in beta, check it - streampad wordpress plugin in beta" - gregory

"Absolutely, I'll send you an email with it attached. thanks for your interest!" - gregory

"hi grant, thanks for the interest! I sent it along. Let me know how the install goes. would love to check it out once it's live. thanks!" - gregory
