If your FriendFeed to Twitter publishing isn't working, go to http://friendfeed.com/setting... and login again. Twitter disabled HTTP Basic Auth, so we can only publish your entries if you've gone through the new OAuth routine.

- Meredith Sweet
I did that x3, & still no FF to Twitter posts happened. FF to FB publishing has quit for me, too. So I have discontinued using FF to post anywhere for now & will give a new try another day down the road. (So the help tickets I submitted are irrelevant now.)

I love this interaction too. Though, that's a fade between two images... no zoom. At least not on Chrome. And they could also pulse the pin or something. I discovered the zoom from region to city pretty early... but it took me a while to find the zoom to intersection.

Grats on the new feature launch, Michael!
- Stephen Mack
Thanks Stephen. I'm really proud of the team on this one... they poured a lot of blood and sweat into the ranking algo. We tried a lot of different approaches for the UI too. We've been working on it for I don't know how long. Happy to see it getting out to all users.
- Michael Leggett
For FFers... here are my comments from my Buzz post...
- Michael Leggett
1. Watch the 2min video. It is a great overview of what is being launched.
- Michael Leggett
2. This is a beta launch. All that means is we're not being too aggressive and the functionality is opt in. It is launching over the next week. Look for a red "New! Priority Inbox" link in the top right corner of your Gmail. Click on that to enable it / learn more.
- Michael Leggett
3. Priority Inbox takes training. Accuracy should be helpful out of the box (~80%), but it needs to be > 95% to be awesome. That's where you come in. Use the +/- buttons to correct emails that are incorrectly marked important or not important. It might take a week or two... but trust me, it will get there.
- Michael Leggett
4. Priority Inbox gives stars meaning! Use them to pin to-do's to your inbox so they don't fall off the cliff or go hiding in some label. Even if you don't use the ranking aspect (you can click on a section header to change what shows up there and some of the options have nothing to do with ranking).
- Michael Leggett
5. Hidden gem: "Archive all visible." Click on the "Everything else" section title to see a menu of options. At the bottom of that menu is an awesome action called Archive all visible. I use this to keep my inbox clean while leaving all my new items (unprocessed) and starred items (to do's) alone. I don't read everything in this section, but I at least look at the subject.
- Michael Leggett
MY WORKFLOW:
- Michael Leggett
1. Correct any false positives / false negatives with the +/- buttons (this puts items in the correct bucket for processing).
- Michael Leggett
2. Read my New & Unimportant items. I start at the top and click "next" without going back to the inbox each time to pick what to read next (that decision is a waste of time). Star anything I need to come back to or has a to-do.
- Michael Leggett
3. Once done, my top section is empty and I have some tasks in my starred section. I skim the stuff in the "Everything else" section... might read a couple items... star if there is a task... and then Archive all using the "Archive all visible" under the Everything else section menu.
- Michael Leggett
The self cleaning nature of this inbox (once you read something in the top section, it jumps to either the starred section if starred or the Everything else section) takes a little getting used to. But it just means you stop being lazy and decide what to do with something the first time you see it.
- Michael Leggett
This sounds awesome, can't wait to try it!

This is awesome Michael!!! Nice work!

""Did you ever hear of a diet which was fun to follow? A diet which would let you have two martinis before lunch, and a thick steak generously spread with Sauce Béarnaise, so that you could make your sale in a relaxed atmosphere and go back to the office without worrying about having gained so much as an ounce? A diet which allows you to take out your favorite girl for a dinner of squab and broccoli with hollandaise sauce and Chateau Lafitte, to be followed by an evening of rapture and champagne?" So starts a jaunty little pamphlet titled The Drinking Man's Diet that first appeared in 1964. It was published by an equally jaunty San Francisco bon vivant, Robert Cameron, who priced it at $1. (Cameron used noms de plume--first Gardner Jameson and Elliott Williams, later Jeffrey W. Roberts.) In two years, he sold 2.4 million copies in 13 languages. Now Cameron, 93, still jaunty, still a bon vivant and still admirably trim from following his own diet, is reissuing this classic. It can be bought for $4.95 through Amazon.com or through Cameron's own Web site (www.abovebooks.com)."

Arco is a BP brand. Just sayin'.

Duly noted.

As much as "BP sucks right now", they're also the company that happened to have a bad disaster at the moment. It's hard to rationally dislike and/or boycott a certain brand of petrol more because of the current disaster. In other words, I have no reason to refute the notion that "All Oil Companies Suck™".
- George S.
A reason such as "all oil from this oil company comes from a specific country" might have more merit, though.
- George S.
The thing to hate about BP is how they're not fixing this in any reasonable timeframe. (Let the fire happen in the first place, didn't put it out, didn't stop the leak, etc.) The thing that sucks even more is that the flow of oil in the US goes Well->Refinery->Station. What that means is that oil from BP wells makes it to nearly every gas station brand out there.
- Steve and 3 other people
Oil is a commodity. It doesn't matter where it comes from, or who pumps it out of the ground, it all gets mixed together into the commodity pot and gets sold to the open world market. This makes it hard to hate on one particular company in any meaningful way.
- Jeff P. Henderson
Money is a commodity as well. Why should I care whether the gas I'm boycotting came from a BP rig? I'm making a financial statement, however small, against the company whose shortcuts resulted in this disaster.
- Kevin Fox
HELL NO. RT @gruber: No one is buying gas from BP ever again, right?
