I found the rack of slides in his basement a few years ago. Bought a film scanner and made him a DVD for Christmas. Something like that. This is why I'm a fan of the Google books project (or anyone's)...let's not leave all that old stuff in the dust.

As people have left, FriendFeed has gotten more interesting, again. It's a condensing community. What might pop out?

The "condensing community" description is an interesting one, Hayes. I think that's a significant factor. Add to it the fluidity with which you can become an acquaintance, then a familiar, then an integral part of a group. With persistence and patience, some amazing things are facilitated here.
- Micah Wittman
It has the forum problem: more interesting when it is a small focused group.

@ Micah well-said.

MVB exactly. Robert: sorry right now I don't want to solve the forum problem. I'm emailing my friends cool links to old MC5 vids instead of posting those links. And I'm thinking about that.
- Hayes Haugen
Thing is Robert, my group sizes here have been stable from before the buyout and since - and rewarding/high quality. It didn't get un-focused during the highest absolute visitor count era, and it's not too narrow now. In other words, between the built-in tools of FF + how I used the site, I've maintained what for me is an optimal set of connections. I can only speak for my experience, but there you go.
- Micah Wittman
Hayes and Micah: How do you make it work for you? Give me a couple hints. Right now I'm getting mostly Robert Scoble and links, which is fine, but I know I'm missing other interesting tech stuff. Everytime I broaden my follows or add a list I get too much junk. Any specific ideas?
- Leigh Marriner

I wish FF provided more of the tools of a twitter app. As it is, I don't have much use to check in very often. If it replaced my twitter app, I would be here all the time. I do like the conversations that grow forth here.
- Andrew Schleicher
Leigh you need to subscribe to more people and then the diversity in you feed will increase.

Actively add and remove people. Put the noisy but interesting people in their own room and visit it occasionally.
- Hayes Haugen
Also start filtering. Hide all (whatever) from everyone. That sort of thing.

I keep catching myself making mistakes in human: like writing "did" instead of "didn't" or "you" instead of "our". Things that completely change the meaning from what I'm intending. But I'm not making similar mistakes when writing code. What does this mean?
