1. Ability to delete groups.
- Kol Tregaskes
2. Ability for admins to DM members, e.g. group announcements: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
3. Sticky posts that permanently stick to the top of the feed: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
4. Ability to lock comments on selective posts, useful for potential sticky posts: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
I still don't understand what rooms, groups etc. are supposed to be or how they differ from feeds.
- Karl Knechtel
Karl, everything is a feed, so groups = feeds - "groups" (new UI) used to be "rooms" (old UI). Does that help?
- Kol Tregaskes
5. Easy inviting system should be a similar screen to the one we have for selecting what Subscriptions to show on your sidebar.
- Kol Tregaskes
6. Notifications for group membership changes and list of groups we admin on the Subscription page: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
Great suggestions. This is one of the big things that bugs me about the beta UI.
- Jen (SquirrelGirl)
Some good ideas here. Especially the stickies and invitations. Locking could well apply system-wide (i.e. in any feed).
- Karl Knechtel
Sure, possibly.
- Kol Tregaskes
7. Email notifications for groups (could help migrate users used to mailing list groups like Yahoo Groups: http://friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
8. The group description, name and username should be saved when you click to add services or change the group's picture. At the moment changes are lost. A warning should appear at least. Having them save would mean you wouldn't have to go into the group settings page twice, for example, to add a description and a service upon creating a new group.
- Kol Tregaskes
I'm very picky about my urls, if I create a private group, can the url be "http://friendfeed.com/hoopsom..." ? Ultimately I'd like to be able to "tag" content and then look at all content I've tagged or labled by going to a specific url under my username. groups are more powerful than tags because I can auto-populate them in lots of interesting ways. I think of tags as a generalization of "like" I don't want to say that I like something just because I want to be able to find it later.
- Hoop
Hoop, no to the URL, groups are in the format: http://friendfeed.com/<groupname>. As for tagging, yep, simply add a # before a word and that turns into a link to the search for that word, e.g. #FriendFeed or for all my suggestions and bugs posts like this use #betakoltaglist
- Kol Tregaskes
How about "liking comments"...like the ones on this post? Could be a nightmare for FF coders...

Related posts here: http://beta.friendfeed.com/search...
- Kol Tregaskes
1. Indications for all your feeds (not just DMs) to show the number of new posts and possibly new comments + Ability to click on the number and have it go to a page where it shows only these new posts (and probably ones that come in after) and not the old posts: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
2. New comment flash duration increased or optional length setting: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
3. Optional auto-translation: translates (perhaps uses Google Translate?) to a selected language: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
4. If the service icons are not to turn (which I’m kinda switching to liking) then we need the duplicate detector to be added with settings to prioritise selective services: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf... UPDATE: Dup detector is back but not perfect and still does not work with micro-blogging services. See suggestions...

- Kol Tregaskes
5. FF Status update feature: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
6. Page numbers added: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
IMPLEMENTED: 7. A “smooth” real-time feature – with real-time still on and new posts and comments coming in that are pushing entries down the page, have the post you are viewing mid-page down stay exactly where it is on your screen while the scroll bar moves down. Avoids the “jumping” effect: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
8. New bookmarklet with the same new features the new share box.
- Kol Tregaskes
9. New Notifier which allows, for example, selection of your filters.
- Kol Tregaskes
10. DiggBar like features for FriendFeed (VERY LOW): http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf... and http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
11. Real-time everywhere, including searches with a pause button on every page.
- Kol Tregaskes
IMPLEMENTED: 12. RSS feeds everywhere, including filters/searches: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
13. Best of pages for every feed including the “Everyone” feed: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
14. Options from the Accounts page added, preferably to the new Settings page?
- Kol Tregaskes
15. Import Google Share Items comments: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
16. Better importing of images via the Google Reader service: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
17. Improved User Recommendations for new users: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
18. Subscribe to specific services for specific users.
- Kol Tregaskes
19. Support for services like Gravatar: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
20. Mini-Window mode like the old UI has: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf... and http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
21. Convert imaginary friends to public feeds (bulk if possible).
- Kol Tregaskes
22. Amend the “People and group search URL: http://beta.friendfeed.com/peoples... to, say, http://beta.friendfeed.com/feedsea...? (LOW)
- Kol Tregaskes
23. Floating pause button. (LOW)
- Kol Tregaskes
24. Static mode refresh rate, like the old UI: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
25. Categories or tagging, for example to set posts in “photography” so that they can be found under the URL http://friendfeed.com/koltreg... then users could have the option to select what categories to subscribe to for each user: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
26. Widget to integrate our real-time profile feed into our blogs.
- Kol Tregaskes
27. More keyboard shortcuts, for example, J = next post, K – previous post: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
Dm reply to all or to sender only :)
- Felter Roberto
from twhirl
28. Ability to collapse and expand the separate sidebar panels, e.g. a +/- to open/close your list of Subscriptions.
- Kol Tregaskes
Jerome's idea applies generally. Keyboard shortcuts currently have virtually no discoverability beyond word-of-mouth.
- Karl Knechtel
29. A private feed showing us our new subscribers - with an RSS feed: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
The "Find your Friends" in the beta seems limited - can't search for email or Twitter contacts like in the non-beta.
- Stuart Miniman
just testing. I'd like to be able to resize the collums. I find reading comments less intuitive here.
- Richard A.
from Friend Deck
Are you talking about FriendDeck, Richard? If so leave feedback in the FD room here: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendd...
- Kol Tregaskes
30. Imaginary friends URLs need to be looked at, we don't want to be taking away nicknames of users that might want to actually join FF later: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
Another reason to do the namespacing thing I was getting at elsewhere (i.e. /namlhaz/feeds/johnqpublic wouldn't prevent Mr. Public from signing up later). Which also allows me to have a "webcomics" private feed while other users also have one. :)
- Karl Knechtel
Karl, this could be a reasonably good workaround for my request for categories. I'd still need to tag the entries in some way but could use, for example, http://beta.friendfeed.com/koltreg... for my photography tagged posts, which I could share out in a nice tidy-ish URL. It's not perfect as I would need to use a unique tag name but not a bad solution. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
31. Subscription request should appear on your profile page, not just your home feed page: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
The "/" search shortcut conflicts with the firefox search shortcut, which uses the same key.
- Jason P
32. Ability to select what boxes appear in the sidebar and in what order: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
33. Ability to see how many times your posts have been re(shared): http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
34. Possibly extend the amount of entries per page from 100: http://beta.friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
35. In relation to the newly implemented scroll option from point 7, perhaps the sidebars should stay with us too: http://friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
36. Privacy settings on services; set which ones are visible to which friends (so need 2 of more levels of friends): http://friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
39. Tweetdeck does not expand ff.im urls.
- Roberto Bonini
37. If we have group email notifications (see point 7 here: http://friendfeed.com/friendf...) could we have options to show images in emails that are linked in comments plus show our comments so to see the whole thread in email without the need to go to FF: http://friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
38. Subscribe notifications need to be clearer for when someone subscribes to your likes or your comments: http://friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
39. Tooltip to show full length URLs of ff.im links: http://friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
40. Shortcuts to Friends/Lists, Groups and Saved Searches: http://friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
41. Ability to turn off notifications for specifics posts: http://friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
Sort my groups based on update time the way it used to. I really miss that.
- amygeek
42. Sidebars move down with your viewing post or as Kevin Fox has suggested have the main body and the sidebars as 2 separate scrollable entities: http://friendfeed.com/friendf...
- Kol Tregaskes
Kol - PLEASE can we have daily/weekly email digest facility that we ALREADY HAD in the old FF?

The Invention of Lying
arty, immaterial and Alex Kapranoff liked this
Very interesting movie with/ by Ricky Gervais. Its premise is a world in which nobody lies or even knows what a lie is... everybody is completely honest all the time.
- Philipp Lenssen
I took away that the lying bit was just to soften the blow of the "Christianity is fairy tale" message that dominated a large portion of the movie. You'll notice in the beginning that people weren't just being honest, they were stating every thing that ran across their minds. Apparently in this world, you have to say exactly what you're thinking all the time, instead of holding thoughts back.

Riddle: From where is this image taken from?
Rami Botros and immaterial liked this
Well done, Philipp. :) I would use this in a study. My hypothesis would be that people refuse to use their minds if they know they can rely on a tool which will solve the problem for them. And then I would measure the amount of people who won't notice it until the results page is shown.
- Rami Botros
My eyes went straight to the search box+button so put me down as one who only noticed on the results. Of course I self-justify this by feeling that it was the more efficient way round to do it ... little point in reading the rest of the page for most searches ;-) I expect an favicon would work differently, relatively rare though the font is.

A combo box is a combination of a text box and a drop-down box. You can use it to select an item from a list or type in your own value. Auto-complete boxes are often implemented with these.

Standard makers seem to always try put the features into HTML. Website makers seem to always try to put the features into JavaScript/ CSS. And not just because of the chicken and egg problem of browsers not yet supporting the element, but also perhaps because UI needs are too specific to define in advance (as soon as you want additional feature X from the UI element -- say, a Calendar...

- Philipp Lenssen
Well, it's best if a browser knows what is supposed to go into an input area (so it can natively validate it and whatnot) and if it can be styled (so the website author can choose how it looks). To accomplish that it's not an either/or choice, Philipp.
- James Robinson
Well if e.g. the date differentiates between busy and free dates for your AcmeCalendar picker, then the browser would not be able to natively validate the input (unless one could provide a standardized Ajax API URL to the widget handling this stuff?), or would it? So you'd be back to your own JS. Agreed it's not an either-or situation -- one could use the native elements as long as they...
