“What's that deep-burning-near-the-stomach feeling I get whenever I read comments? People seem to be at their worst when anonymous.”

Maybe it has to do with the fact that I sometimes google for "Product X sucks" and then go read the forums that come up? Where Product X is a piece of technology? - Yuvi

but I get the exact opposite feeling when reading comments on stuff i've posted on FF :) - Iain Baker

@Iain - I guess the real early adopters of Digg too felt the same way. I'd expect the kids to turn up when FriendFeed gets real popular. - Yuvi

@Iain - In a way, it's good FriendFeed has no notion of 'Karma' :) - Yuvi

Well let's hope that FF doesn't go the same way as YouTube - Sally Church

@Sally - Youtube is hopeless. I presume it was like 'that' from the beginning? - Yuvi

Yuvi, you're absolutely right! - Iain Baker

YouTube used to be quite civilized until the rednecks and trolls discovered it - Dom

If they decide to start showing up, I plan to start blocking. - Jordan Hofker

@Jordan - You can block only till a certain limit. After that, you just pack up and leave. - Yuvi

@Yuvi: A limit coded into FriendFeed as to the maximum number of blocks a user can make, or the point at which one just gives up on fighting the junk? I'm thinking the latter; am I correct? - Voyagerfan5761

@Voyagerfan - The latter. - Yuvi

@Yuvi: Yay, I win! :D Sounds like what happened to me with YouTube comments. I never read them any more. Same with ICHC-network blog comments. Nothing much to read there, either. - Voyagerfan5761
