Now you could go on for days trying to understand what's happening in this picture. What you really need to be concerned about is what's in the box under his bed.

why? - Damien Franco

Not from what I see so far. Even then probably not. - Jeff B

meh - Jason Carreira

If I had to pay, I'd stop using it. There are many competing services that don't charge. - Morton Fox

Well, normal FriendFeed would still be free, and eventually you would get the same features as the folks paying. What I am really asking is, "Would you pay money to be first into the FriendFeed Beta?" - possible248

Nope - Pete Gilbert

If I had to pay for the beta, I would just wait for it to come out of beta. It makes no sense to charge for beta anyway. Don't they want people to test it? - Morton Fox

Independent of FriendFeed, no. If something is a true beta, I'm "paying" with my time testing, finding bugs, giving feedback, and working in a potentially unstable environment. If something is a "pre-release for the cool kids" with the tag beta slapped onto it for good measure, I'll use it if I'm deemed a "cool kid"; otherwise, I can wait. - Joanmarie

yeah, i'd pay. No more than maybe $10 a year. But i'd pay. - Zee from WeDoCreative

Interesting perspective. I came up with this idea in the middle of the night when thinking of possible ways for FriendFeed to generate money. - possible248

i would pay a little but only if FF stayed competitive. Considering however how all the new competitors emerge like mushrooms and are all for free, not sure many would. Feedly is one good example. - Hayk Hakobyan

If you take the question literally from a linguistic standpoint, you should begin by explaining how biology works and then describing how your parents met followed by a philosophical jaunt into existentialism.

Very nice Shey. If only everyone was as even keeled as you around difference and diversity of opinion. I like engaging people who have different values and belief systems as long as they are respectful - that's the bottom line. I like your posts about social stuff - you're very attuned to other people. - mel maverick mcbride

Thanks Mel, like you I find the social phenomena of this space, fascinating. I really liked this comment by you: "Well, Freud argued that the one type of pathology that was totally untreatable was narcissism. The narcissist's ego is so powerful they are incapable of admitting fault or need for growth." This is a huge danger, IMO. - Shey

Great post shey. It saddens me to think that as sites like FriendFeed become more popular the kind of gravitation towards one's "birds of a feather" will increase - on the other hand these tools allow us to identify and interact with individuals who place a premium on the same things we do (music, books, hobbies) which allows us to make those things a focal point while not completely eclipsing our ability to share our diverse thoughts in other areas as well. - Marco (aureliusmaximus)

@Marco That's a great point - Shey

I personally friend people I find interesting. We may be alike in one area but differ in others. It's our differences that help us grow. - Lindsey Smith

Good post. I think part of the problem is a lot of people just seek to avoid confrontations and arguments, so they'd rather not see someone who disagrees with them. Personally I like to argue, so I don't have that problem ;) - Jason Carreira

I agree with Lindsey - my primary criteria is "interesting". Rarely does that mean "agrees with", because if all someone does is re-affirm my own point of view and tell me things I already knew... they're boring. I like to be challenged, and even if all I do is argue, then at least it forces me to defend my own ideas. - Eric

I try to leave people I disagree with in until they get too abrasive. Then I have to block. It's not worth it to get annoyed online by some nearly anonymous nitwit. I get enough of that in real life, and in real life, of course, there's no block button. - Kamilah Gill

hmmm respond with my own Twain quote? "The reports of KillerStartups death have been greatly exaggerated." ? - David Knight

They all suck. They are great for trending, but for actual numbers? Not so much. I'm not even completely sure that I trust Google Analytics on its own. Unless it's software running on the server that my site is running on, how do I know if it's working or not? How do I know if it goes down or there's a bug or if something is messed up in the settings if I'm not the one running it? - Cyndy

David, excellent follow-up. It is interesting that you can see something interesting when you look at the various reports at one time, as opposed to one chart makes it look like their traffic died. - Rob Diana

Thanks Rob, I feel better having done it. I'll certainly be more careful with web metrics in the future . I asked a few more questions about the Startup News niche and Killerstartups in particular that I'll post later after I decide how to flesh it out if that interests you at all. - David Knight

David, I am definitely interested as I have been wondering about the startup news niche given the demo and tc50 conferences are coming. - Rob Diana

David, I've been catching up on news and noticed this little tidbit from Roger Kondrat that I found interesting as well. :) http://www.techwinter.com/2008... - Cyndy

That's a great find Cyndy, the comments are a real gem. Quantcast recommends using Google Analytics in addition to their own product. I would assume most people would, but interesting to hear it coming from them directly. - David Knight

Facebook & LinkedIn are nice ways to keep track of e-mail contact info (for non-Twitter stuff). Here are 76 people on both FF/Facebook and how they connect to each other http://nexus.ludios.net/view/M... (Description at http://friendfeed.com/e/12d872...) - Mitchell Tsai

FB still has value for me since that's the one place where I continually connect with old classmates from high school and college. It's one thing FF CANNOT do for me. Come to think of it LinkedIn gives me that sort of value. How can FF capture that functionality. Rooms are too rudimentary for that. - Ernie Oporto

Must be a slow news day... - Jeff P. Henderson

It was a slow news day. CNN kept talking about a guy named Obama. I don't know what was going on. I don't really follow the news all that well. I also think something was happening in China but who knows? I just can't wait to go see The House Bunny starring Anna Faris(in theatres Friday). OMG, the trailer for that movie made it look so funny. I peed in my pants a little bit. I bet it will be funnier than Norbit & that movie made me laugh milk out my nose. k thx bai! - Mark Wilson

Add me on FaceBook! LOL - Ernie Oporto

well, there goes ReadBurner ;) - Baratunde Thurston via twhirl

This is great news. I love the readburner concept and I look forward to what your advice will do to make the service better. I speak only for myself, but it's safe to say that many people take what you say very seriously and are aware of the fact that you know this space as well as the best of them. Good luck. - Derick Valadao
