AHHhahahaa, not really ~ his site with all those words but NO content, just so #EPICALLYFAILTASTIC Every time Mashable tweets God eats a baby.
- The Real sofarsoShawn
Hey Shawn, Just saw this thread and always open to feedback - what do you think we can do to improve Mashable in your eyes? Thanks in advance, Pete
- mashable
WoW....Mashable!....errrrr....heyyyyy....ummmm....never met anyone famous before, Hiiii....no no J/K So you’re serious in asking your question? So to your point, you’re HOT right now, but YES, lacking in really key areas, but nonetheless you’re raking in the money.
- The Real sofarsoShawn
To your question specifically, as @Mashable’s grown you’ve aggrandized & annexed territory over reaching beyond sufficient networks and to answer you question appropriately if you serious and in asking what you can do to improve in my own eyes, we gotta do this in a manner more appropriate than a FF thread. So i Ieft you my info at mashable.com, lemme know, I am severly curious and interested to see now what you think, and yea my apologies as to what I said. Im seriously surprised you care.
- The Real sofarsoShawn
always interested in making mashable better! you've got my details I think if you wanna mail thoughts over - saw your mail come in earlier
- mashable
Yeah you already mentioned as much, but read above again. Mashable better in what terms?In what areas? With what criteria? And how would you be measuring: both qualitatively/quantifably? Through my eyes is far to{ ambigously metaphorical (pretty colours vs how things are understood and through what POV etc etc) otherwise I'm just pissing against the wind. Sooooooooo Tamara has my info...

Ahhahahhaaha, thanks Micah! It's funny cuz it's true. But must've been some other sofarsoShawn....wonder what hist tweets looked like though ~ Micah????
- The Real sofarsoShawn
This was Micah bumpn again: obvi XD Sooo why don't I delete this: #1 it's funny #2 now that Cashmore and I buddy's, well on the same page ---> see #1 ;) Nonetheless enoug has been had.

When I first came on to ff today, this is what I saw at the top of the feed. As I leave, it is at the top again. Thus, I both start and end the day smiling.

I'm just gonna go ahead and let this be my embarrassing photo meme entry.
- Derrick
Can you remind me again where to find those stats?
- Brian Johns
Brian, go to "Me" link (http://friendfeed.com/brianjo...) which defaults to the Feed tab. Look at the sidebar on the right, below Discussion.
- Micah
0.75 (926/1226) - still relatively new here
- mikepk
I only see my stats for the last week (17/14 = 1.21) Please tell me your 670 number is for more than just a week!
- Brian Johns
1.44 (566/391) for brianjohns (after week tally you should see a comma then 'all time' count - I can see it on your page)
- Micah
OK, sorry. I'm a total dumbass. I stopped reading after the weekly totals...
- Brian Johns
3.74, which seems way off of everybody else's. I wonder what that says. I comment a lot more than I like.
- Cyrus Lendvay
FFers use FF with their own strategy or simply default tendencies. The ratio is an interesting snapshot of behaviour. Thanks for joining in everyone, hope more keep flowing in.
- Micah
from twhirl
0.66 - I tend to 'like' things without needing to comment further, I guess, and I notice I usually like the things upon which I comment. Well, frequently.
- ɐ ɯıʞ sıɹɥɔ
.39 (2457/6242) I guess I don't comment much. I do 'like' a lot of things, it would seem.
- Bren
0.62 then again i have over 11,000 comments
- Cee Bee
1.23 (5287/4229) - I am put to shame by Cee Bee's participation, good grief!
- Lindsay
So far: Average: 1.27 | Median: 0.81 ... (if you average 1 comment per like, you'd be 1.0 ... if you're 0.xx you might herd content more than discuss ... if you're whole numbers above 1 you may not 'like' much or discuss plenty or both)
- Micah
InPerpetualMotion(Gina k), I really liked this 'Like' of yours (in a series of pics, so I flickr fav'd it): http://friendfeed.com/e... and commented. Thanks!
- Micah
.68 6986/10194 Someone wrote a great article on the comment-like ratio a few months ago. Search on FriendFeed is crashing on me... I'll try to get the link.
- Mitchell Tsai
Thanks Mitchell (btw, search crashing on me too - lots)
- Micah
1316 comments/20221 likes (0.06), according to Windows Calculator, although I probably screwed up.
- Tyson Key
A recent change in FF: now the comment count shows total number of comments (previously multiple comments in one thread only counted as one) http://friendfeed.com/e... so all the numbers above are from the old methodology....
- David HC Soul
My new ratio: 0.76 all time (old methodology .52).... this week 1.39
- David HC Soul
Looks like my ratio as flipped again (comments back to dominating again). Seems to match my own awareness I've lately been commenting without Liking (commenting is my inherent recognition of value to me and the additional Like is when it merits an extra bump to help discovery by others).
- Micah
Rick, you mean that face with glasses I photoshopped tint into with an apparently disembodied arm which is actually very much attached to my eldest son? It's mostly just me :)
- Micah
Thanks, Michael. Yes, you have a rising tide of comment percentage (oh, wow, you were one of the originals from January - cool!)
- Micah
Yeah, that's a decent upward rise in comments, Nicholas.
- Micah
.6 (6,000/10,000) 3rd update - Now it's time to flip this on its head. My goal is to have (16,000/16,000) next time I post here. Regardless of what happens, I'm just looking forward to the next 10,000 comments, likes, posts, and new relationships I make here. It's all good!
- Michael Fidler
1.76 (7539/4290) My commenting habits haven't chanced much, but it felt like I clicked Like a lot less, and this ratio confirms that for me.
- Micah
.82 as of right now. edit: on January 8th it was 0.39 -- when I saw that, I decided to make more of an effort to comment. When I hit 10k "likes" I decided I wouldn't "like" anything else until I also had 10k comments.
- Bren
Jimminy, I'm copyrighting every single number. It's kind of a honeypot ;) Actually, it was curiosity mostly, but I also hope to build a sampling (small and self-selecting as it may be) for anyone who might want to analyze it.
- Micah
Wow I didn't realize I was so out of whack!! 12.23 that's got to be a record (and I don't even import my feeds with the summary as a comment)!!
- Chris Myles
Thanks JA, Chris (wow, 12+ is unusual :), Serkan and Nine!
- Micah
Micah.. I told you I take my likes seriously; ). You *might* want to ask (in a separate post) what percentage of likes were used to "bookmark" a post or save it for later VS actually "liking it". I NEVER used like for that.. but I did use a private group that if filled with my own topics (and comments)..
- Chris Myles
Likes are down relative to comments, which matches my much lower frequency of liking. I'm a more selective liker than ever.
- Micah
I don't think I could argue that any particular kind of ratio is "best", because if Lurkers like to Lurk and cultivate (via Likes) and the Chatty-ites love to chat, to pump out much many more comments than Likes, each can be happy and make for a great social experience.
- Micah
wow, what a difference time makes, when i 1st posted on this thread, 6.43%, now = 1.25%, for a 5.18% difference, :o (and this is the earliest post to date i've recovered of my activity on ff)
- chaz2b
chaz, I think there's been a big fluctuation for most people (maybe not that much). This is the oldest post on which you commented that you've recovered?
- Micah
that was my third post... It's interesting to see how the number has changed. of course, I manipulated the number to a degree, because I stopped "liking" things for a while...
- Bren
Bren, the other thing that can seriously throw off someone's stats is a feed that upon each item it imports adds a comment automatically.
- Micah
true. that can seriously inflate comment stats, of course. Then you have someone like RAPatton, who posts a gazillion comments, in part because of his playlist posts where he will list each song in a separate comment. I found, after this post in fact, that I tended to "like" things much more frequently than comment on them, that I was lurking instead of participating. I have changed the way I use ff rather considerably, and I think for the better.
- Bren
In 4 days it will be 1 year since my first recorded stat here. My comments/like were almost a 1:1 ratio then. Now comments are almost double likes for me.
- Micah
75,415 comments/1,286 likes = 58.64 - i wish the auto inserted comments didn't get counted... the true number is probably much much close ot my number of likes
- Chris Heath
1.97%. thanks again micah, this has been a great metric to measure my first year here on ff. As the year went (this being the first record of me being here that i've found): , 6.43%:1.25%:1.97%
- chaz2b
Chris, Bren, thank you. And chaz2b, thank you too - glad it's a special marker for you. :)
- Micah
63.58 (97,534/1,534) -- interesting that my last three digits are the same there, eh? (note, i already posted a month or two ago when i first saw this thread)
- Chris Heath
Last year my comments were around 7000 and likes around 2500, for a ratio of 2.80. I consciously chose to do more liking over the last year. As of today my comments number 10,782 and likes number 7,666, for a ratio of 1.41.
- Stephen Mack
Jason, Stephen - cool. Thanks for keeping updated here. :)
- Micah
Okay, Micah. <----I had to resist the urge not to post that because I know it's going to up my comment count. ;)
- Jenny R
But how many of those primordial, high interest posts are still active. Uh huh. :)
- Micah
Thanks, Morton. BTW, when you posted in February, it was exactly 0.13 also.
- Micah
Jenny, resistance is futile; embrace the rising tide of comments.
- Micah
Comments are more difficult and time consuming than Likes. I'd be happy about a high comment:likes ratio except that many are surely imported from feeds, while every Like is manual.
- Mike Chelen
it has changed to 2.2256 now as Sep, 6 2010.Labor Day. :) I added the date for future references.
- ۳۰ مرغ Loves Y'ALLLLL
Two years later and my ratio has climbed from 3.4 to 4.675. I've got a lot to say, apparently.
- Kevin Fox
Funnily, I didn't notice until after leaving that comment that when I reported my stat in 2009 I also followed it up with "I've got stuff to say." I didn't say it was *new* stuff...
- Kevin Fox
2.91; 6.43% (@ 2yrs ago) 2.33% (@ 1yr ago). for history's sake, this thread was started shortly after i found friendfeed, or friendfeed found me, so it holds a special place in my heart. thanks for keeping it around mr micah

I wonder if maybe FF intentionally blocked search engines or something. ETA - Just checked; FF is the first result for "friendfeed" on Bing and Yahoo! I guess it's just Google blocking it for some reason.
- Curdy G
don't think so, there are still 37M+ FF pages on search (http://cl.batu.me/88Gb), but no homepage. I checked /robots.txt but it's not that.

But remember all we talked about on FF at first was FF
- Leo Laporte
As cools as G+ is or could be I still think FF is better for conversations. You see a lot more conversation per screen area on FF. G+ has a lot of white space and space used for comments and meta data.
- Todd Hoff
Leo is right we talk a lot about friendfeed on friendfeed

Headboard Jim? What are you two doing in bed together.......?

I saw someone mention that Google+ is the return of Friendfeed. Which is funny, since it never went anywhere. (I get the sentiment but it's still inaccurate.)

and here I thought you were knocking boots Jim. (Disappointed)

it is really kind of sad - ever since I posted the gay pride parade pictures, I lost 40 friends on Facebook, 25 on friendfeed. really - it is probably better that way.
nah serious on this one - I had 1039 friends on facebook, I am down to 998, I had 900 here, down around 25. I agree with Big Joe Silence, if you need to be in other people's bedrooms telling them what to do, I sure don't want them telling me what to do. the missionary position gets boring after a while, and there are so many cooler things to do than that.

Damn. I'm sorry. People really do suck. And they don't deserve your company.

Dude. If I were you, I'd be tempted to post a list of names. Just like the Prop. 8 petition signers.

rochelle - no idea how to find out who dropped me since then on facebook although I know how to do it on FF, but what would be the point? Do I really want them back? Do I really want to do a wall of oh really? People are people, they are free to listen to be blather or not.

I've feuded with a few conservatives on Twitter before, though not over gay rights stuff. (Actually, it was over Scott Baio and Glenn Beck being such douchebags and them blocking me.) There's a reason I keep my project and opinion blogs off Facebook, namely all the Christian relatives...
- Dennis Jernberg
Heck I don't even bring up politics, and I rarely bring up the idea that I am also a photographer that does some pretty racy stuff for friends. But the parade was so cool, with so many happy people, it was worth sharing, even if people are being widgets about it. Nothing wrong with naked bicyclists, boy or girl. Seriously that is pretty tame next to HBO and Showtime.

I thought you're supposed to endorse it too though.
- tiffany
Well, I did endorse it, I wrote "For Deposit Only" and I wrote my account number on it. I sent it through the drive through, and the teller said (rather tersely) "What did you want to do with this?". I responded "I want to deposit it". She then said "Do you have the account number?" I said "It's on the back of the check, right under 'For deposit only'". She then told me she'd send out a...

I don't think I've ever heard of writing "for deposit only" on a check.
- Rochelle
I thought the "For deposit only" comment was only meant to prevent someone else from cashing a check should I lose it.
- Jack&Cleo
For the 15 or 20 years I've had a checking account (always through the same bank, though it's been bought out and changed its name 4 times since I started), "For deposit only" not only prevented you or anyone else from being able to cash the check, it also worked in lieu of a deposit slip. Today, though, that apparently changed.

I don't think it is, he's gonna share a post with me and i'll get an notification e-mail about it and click on the link from the e-mail,then, I'M IN. (saw it on TNW)
