5 Reasons Why Facebook + OpenID is Good News - ReadWriteWeb - http://www.readwriteweb.com/archive...
5 Reasons Why Facebook + OpenID is Good News - ReadWriteWeb
"Especially among the Facebook engineers there is hope. Just like we're very skeptical of Google's frightening power over the world we live in but really like a lot of individual Google engineers, so too with Facebook come a lot of people who will be great to have working along side the existing OpenID community. So, cynics, that's why we think tonight's announcement is good news." - Chris Messina from Mento
Robert Scoble

New NoiseRiver App Adds Interest Filters to FriendFeed Stream - http://www.louisgray.com/live...
oh, this looks good - Marcel Weiß
I think that everyone's love or hate of a person should be publicly visible though. I always wonder about people subscribing to someone, only to find out they hate him? Unsubscribe would be the magic word then ;-) - Alexander van Elsas
Alexander: Doh :) It's not always like football... this is a little bit private, isn't it :) - directeur from NoiseRiver
Who is making all this noise, oh it's directeur. Well he cant help it, he's French! Great service BTW, congratulations ;-) (but I still want to know who hates me ;-) ) - Alexander van Elsas
Alexander! haha! Thank you! Actually i'm not French... though I speak french very fluently, and yes sorry: it's me ;-) - directeur from NoiseRiver
And come on! Who'll dare to hate you? You're a very good blogger, Toots Thielemans is great! and your football team is amazing! :) - directeur from NoiseRiver
Amazingly good at losing the quarterfinals after we played the best football in a 1st round ever to be played. and look what it got us ;-) - Alexander van Elsas
Well... that happens :) - directeur from NoiseRiver
Alexander, you're very binary in how you think about love/hate. Don't let the definitions limit your thinking. Here's an example. I like a lot of what MG Siegler posts. However, I do not care at all about his facial hair and I care even less about any jokes about twitter, fail whale, etc. Yet I like his posts about iPhone, streaming video from PC to TV, etc. With NoiseRiver you don't have to throw the baby out with the bath water. - Robert Seidman from NoiseRiver
Robert, Exactly ! Couldn't described it better myself! That's why the sliders work from -1 to 1, in this interval you define your feeling... - directeur from NoiseRiver
Binary? Ha, not binary, I just want the detailed lists of loves/hates so that we can all gossip about it ;-) Actually, I think directeur did a really nice job at this, so I won't make another joke tonight (It's weekend over here, never take the Dutch serious on a weekend) - Alexander van Elsas
@robert - i am very upset that you do not care about my facial hair :) - MG Siegler
I'm sorry MG, I didn't mean to pick on you! I think the real preference parameters that FriendFeed itself should seek to automate are on a scale between "chat room" on the left and "information service" on the right. Most people are probably in the middle. The beauty of it in theory is everyone gets to do exactly what they want, which is as it should be! P.S. 1 more vote for no goatee ;-) - Robert Seidman
Thanks Alexander :) I see what you meant! And this could be a nice feature but to be activated on user's demand. I mean you'll decide to publish your neighborhood settings and gossip and laundry ;-) - directeur from NoiseRiver
ha ha, voted counted. but i do agree with you, a filter between personal and business would be useful, but would also make things more complicated probably. noiseriver is interesting, tried it out a bit, need to look at it more. - MG Siegler
Thanks MG Siegler :) No issue or bug so far? - directeur from NoiseRiver
@directeur - looks good to me so far, only gave it a brief spin. will look more later today and let you know if i find anything amiss :) - MG Siegler
this is sweet! - m.0
MG Siegler: Thanks a lot again :) m.0: happy it pleases that much! :) - directeur from NoiseRiver
Playing around with it, seems to be a very nice concept! - ※Fu※ from NoiseRiver
@directeur I'm for anything that facilitates the addiction.:) - m.0
This is similar to mioNews, which I just launched this weekend. Simplest way to describe it is a mix of Google Reader, NoiseRiver, and FriendFeedMachine. But instead of a slider for various topics, mioNews auto-tags every article and then determines relevance based on previous like/hate choices made in mioNews. I definitely think that content filters is the future of social media as a way to deal with the noise. http://mionews.com - Patrick Lightbody

The site must not be working for you, Ben. There is even a 10 minute long gameplay trailer on there. Looks exactly like Diablo II, except for extra awesome. - DeWitt Clinton
Loaded it up in Safari; working fine now. - Benjamin Golub
So thanks to blizzard, I don't need to play a game made by anyone else. There will be WoW for playing socially (@Marijke and I have casual characters we level together), DIII for the mindless distraction, and SCII for hard-core rts with friends. - DeWitt Clinton

Plaxo is now fully integrated into FriendConnect, using OAuth and OpenSocial 0.8 APIs--yay for open standards! http://blog.plaxo.com/archive...
thanks so much for doing this!...via feedalizr - Axel Quack
Awesome Joseph! Plaxo is great app... keep up good work. I especially like Open tools. You guys were first to embrace Google's OpenSocial API right? - Susan Beebe
Congrats! - Adam Lasnik
@Susan, yep we were the first site live with the original version of OpenSocial. We're in a good role at Plaxo where we have a large and mainstream enough userbase to make a decent impact when by supporting open standards like OpenID, microformats, OpenSocial, and so on, and yet we're still small and agile enough that we can crank them out quickly and "ship early and often". :D - Joseph Smarr
Keep up the great work on open standards. I don't really understand FriendConnect though. What's the practical benefit for users? - Greg Beck
so now I'll actually get friendfeed setup :-) - Silona

Facebook to Push “Useful” Applications with “Apps You May Like” - http://mashable.com/2008...
yet another reason why Facebook is becoming (for me, at least) little more than a Rolodex with built-in messaging, and even then, I rely on Digsby for notifications... Adding "features" like this do little to give me any incentive to visit the site itself, let alone spend time there. - Andrew Terry
I still don’t see this helping small apps that are just starting out or that are popular within a niche. You’d still need to have a fair amount of traction already to benefit from this. - Jon Dillon
Erm.. Who still logins to Facebook and checks it thrice a day? Probably only once a week for me. Not much value I can derive from it. Definitely not as much as Twitter or FF.. - Winston Teo
A lot of my friends have started using Facebook Chat to message me. I really do see FB becoming a web OS. As opposed to Twitter, my Facebook friends are mostly people that I've met in "real life"... more than any other social network... and it is the same for most college students. Anyway, because of that, Facebook has inherent value for me, and them. - Rex Pechler
@Rex Pechler: so do you see FB becoming more of a communication tool with your friends. I didn't quite understand your point about the web OS. - Davide D'Incau

[scribkin] The 6 Best Ways to Rock FriendFeed
Great tips! - Steve Rubel
Good article, thanks! - Nicholas Kreidberg
Good stuff! - Andrew Dobrow
so agree.. I think I stick to the web interface because using Forums and BB for so many years just make it natural for me . great post - Naor Mark
I just found this thread. Thanks for the great comments! (I'm the author) - Phil G
I liked it too... Just a little remarque, what if we all (includng me) take a look if something is already shared and just "Like" a previous submitted link in order to reduce the redundency and still get our friends notified? Don't you think? - directeur
@directeur, that's something only full time bloger can do :) the rate of comments and submis. is so high, I can't even think of going back and look around - Naor Mark
Searching for duplicates when posting is a good idea, but I've tried it and it's a real pain in the butt to do if you're in a posting frenzy (a state I occasionally find myself in). Some kind of script to find similar or duplicate links at post- or comment-time would be better. Having friendfeed index posts by target URL and automatically merging duplicates (hidden behind an "expand" button, of course) as part of the service would be best. Fragmentation is becoming more frustrating than noise, IMO - Slappy Line
@Noar: I understand :) We're living in so much abundance... by submitting less redundent content, we can save energy, save money, children! save the planet! Think about it! ;-) - directeur
Ok, this is a little bit exagerated :) - directeur
I think there will always be duplicates, here. If I were to add the above link in del.icio.us, it will show up here yet again under my feed, and so on. - Phil Crissman
hmmm.. "..submitting less redundent content".. you just killed Web2.0 :) - Naor Mark
No, I'm killing noise :) - directeur
For the record, my wordpress blog has a friendfeed widget below the article, that links directly to the original FriendFeed syndicated entry. So, you can read the article and then find the original conversation! (which is here by the way: http://friendfeed.com/e... ) .. also, you don't really want to know just how... more... - Phil G
all we talk about is FriendFeed on FriendFeed! LOL - Elliott Ng
Probably coz it gets the most response from a bunch of linked people who were mostly all early adopters and as such interested in the development of it. - Slappy Line
This is great info, thanks Steve! - Jason Runyan
