Thanks for linking up my article, Leo!

Jesse: Not sure about the script you're referring to but this script - http://internetducttape.com/2008... - will add your Twitter friends to FF. I've been meaning to run it but haven't yet. I'll do it tonight and report back.

That's cool Bwana - for iPhone users - anyone have a Blackberry FF client?

Jesse, I think you are talking about Internet Duct Tape's Twitter to FriendFeed importer: http://internetducttape.com/2008...

Leo, also if you're a Greasemonkey user, I highly recommend bookmarking http://ffapps.com
- Bwana ☠
Leo, here's another handy Greasemonkey script for filtering your FF stream by service http://snurl.com/2en81 e.g. view only Flickr, view only Tumblr, etc.
- Mike Doeff
@Leo, http://fftogo.com is a decent friendfeed blackberry client. I do not use it much but it is way better anything else I have seen.
- Rob Diana
Leo: fftogo works well on the blackberry (so I've heard) but you need to change your font size in fftogo (scroll to the bottom and click on settings). I'm the developer for fftogo so if you want any improvements I'm your man.
- Benjamin Golub
from fftogo
So it does, Benjamin - but I hate going to the BB browser. What font size works best? Trying 9 right now.
- Leo Laporte
I'm not sure since I don't have a BB but I've heard that the default (which works great on my Moto Q9c) is way too big on the BB.
- Benjamin Golub
@bgolub thanks for implementing font size :)

But it does work well for identifying hot topics. One option is to attach comments to an item and use the comments as a timeline.

Depends on what "for a company" means. I blog about products I am impressed with and want others to try. Don't get paid by the companies. BUT I would love to have a job where I was the evangelist (or whatever other title you want to put on it) for pay.

Clarifying: I would NOT blog for a startup for nothing on thier site. They want to link to what I write about them on my blog, fine. They want me to write content for thier site: Pay me.

No, I wouldn't blog for a company for nothing or next to nothing. Standard freelancing rates should apply. I've been blogging for free (no ads) since 2004 on my personal site, which is a totally different monster.
