Wow, whatever you do, don't google "Asian guys at beach licking" if you want to find the Flickr account for this. No, seriously. Just...don't. o.O

changed my life forever...I will always go to the beach with a a few chubby buddies after porking myself up for those bosoms ~ and this image is most definitely going in the ol' spank bank

Sir, randomly linking to your FriendFeed from one of my posts is oh wait you'll never see this because you're blocked for spamming. Thanks anyway, kaghazrangy.
- Akiva Moskovitz
damn this picture just won't go away - you have forced me to hide it
- William Harryman
Akiva, wasn't that pic taken at your last BBQ?
- Paul
Every time I see this picture I smile. Their joy is infectious, like herpes.
- Sparky
Paul, I surely do wish I had a beach in my back yard!
- Akiva Moskovitz
Sparky, I'm going to have this blown up to poster-size and attaching it to the ceiling above our bed. That'll cause some infections!

makes me want to grow a rack and diddle with my own, know what I'm saying?

I still want to know the motivation here. is this a gay marriage argument? or are we already pushing group social contracts on friendfeed?
- Noah David Simon
oh man this one keeps popping up on ma friendfeed,....must spread virus nao
- Chris Hofmann
I'm surprised no one's noticed old boy's red-framed glasses.
- Akiva Moskovitz
oh right... the glasses are so important when three asian men are licking his nipples and all the comments are by people who think gay marriage has something to do with equality... when it has everything to do with taking protections away from children. the red glass glasses.... um yeah. chicken and Oklahoma with milk
- Noah David Simon
Mark, you have uncovered the dark underbelly of humanity except in this case it isn't dark but is rather a pasty hue somewhere in the vicinity of undercooked flan.

I'm thinking that eventually, it will have been hidden by every user on FriendFeed. It'll be the most hidden post in FriendFeed history.

It will go away, to be replaced with photoshops of the original. It's all part of the meme lifecycle.

As much as I am loathe to bump this post, I have to do it to say, You, sir, are a master. Well played, sir. Well played. This is why I take every opportunity to say, in my next life, I want to be Akiva. I've already called it! Don't anybody go getting any more ideas.

It's just so refreshing to see genuine juvenile humour at work. These kids are no different from any other, I think it's a great happy image, given all the other shite happening in this world on a daily basis. For those that are too pompous and prudish, 'up yours with brass knobs'

- Noah David Simon
You know, every time this pops up, since FF hides the middle of the comments of which there are 804 or so, I see Akiva say "I'm sorry." at the top. It makes me wonder about how some things are just not possible to apologize for!

the thing that strikes me about this (aside from the obvious) is after seeing this thing pop up like 35-40 times since March its just occurred to me that I don't have any (guy) friends that a) would lick my nipples b) would lick my nipples for a photograph. Maybe I should get out more...

For the life of me, I'll never understand the emotion people have around this picture for or against. There's no nudity at all, not even implied nudity. Less dude nudity than a beer commercial or cigarette ad, yet there are people who really really really hate this picture.

The bumping algorithm includes things like novel people posting to it, in addition to thread age, and rapidity of comments. If the same 3 people are talking in a thread, it quits bumping because it's obviously a closed tea party.

Jimminy, it's an irrational phobia. No different than people who are afraid of heights, spiders, clowns, or Canada.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Akiva, now I'm LMAO at the fear of Canada. People are actually afraid of Canada, or just the fact they don't know if they're British or French?
- Jimminy Fuller
I don't think even Canadians know that difference.

On Fark, there was this one thread, that just kept growing and growing. On Fark, it was a single page per thread. And you could post images and gif inline. Well the thread wouldn't die, people just kept posting. I forget which one it was. Anyway, it got so monsterous, that few people going to read/post to it per day (which was only a handfull) accounted for 1/3 of the server load of the site. They eventually had to cull that thread.

I think everyone who has participated in this thread has 'culled' themselves privately.

Robert, wait for the interview. My perception is that if they are working on other projects, that's a good thing. They should be working on other projects and learning the Facebook environment. Then, my hope is that they'll be able to take that and integrate it into the FriendFeed environment in a way that respects the FriendFeed culture and brings the good parts of Facebook in as well....

Despite the drop in numbers, I'm not seeing a drop in the level (and energy) of engagement here. Additionally, I'm still picking up new subscribers, and finding new and interesting people to subscribe to... For me, Friendfeed is still the most fun place to hang out on, and that's down to the people and conversations I get to engage with - and long may it remain so! :-)
- Andrew Terry
@Sunny and @Prolific - there's an OpenFF group (http://friendfeed.com/openff) looking at writing an open source equivalent, which might be a good place to get involved, rather than reinventing the wheel. It's gone a bit quiet because the key people have been busy with their day jobs, so I'm sure that any contributions will be gladly accepted!
- Andrew Terry
FF needs to be acquired by a non-profit like Wikipedia, and set up as a hub for all things real-time on the web. Which would you rather turn to for real-time information and conversation... Twitter or a properly configured and managed FF topic room/group? "Properly configured and managed" is the key phrase... some group of folks needs to get a reasonable paycheck to find and organize all relevant voices and feeds on the web.

"Outrigger, headed by former Veoh sales chief and Dow Jones executive Mike Henry, will sell advertising on Warner videos across the web whether on YouTube or other distributors, such as social networks, blogs or the artist's own sites. Rather than negotiate licenses with distributors such as YouTube or AOL, Warner is seeking revenue-sharing deals in the hope that brands embrace music videos as a high-end advertising vehicle. Earlier this fall Warner reached a deal with YouTube that hews to its new principles: instead of collecting a royalty each time a video is played, Warner, through Outrigger, will sell advertising (largely pre-roll ads) against music videos and share revenue with the world's largest video site."

Too early to tell what it's like Zee as it's just a request for an invite. Is the promise not to blog a clever marketing ploy I wonder? One thing - it always frustrates me that when I fill out my UK address on most sites it still insists on my filling out a state (or I can't register). We don't have 'states' in the UK so why try and appeal internationally and then limit it to US subscribers - unless we make up an address as I just have!
- PaulJohnson
I just put UK when it asks for my state, most forms dont seem to bother checking its really valid as long as you put something in :)

I'm with CannonGod on this one if it sits between FF and Wave - seems better to just invest in Wave
- Wang Yip
@Bryan: Google Wave is expected for release by the end of September. Threadsy might have known this and decided to release just before to get some coverage.

I sent in email and survey some hours ago. Still nothing.

Just got my invite and started playing with Threadsy. So far I like the AJAX-y inbound box. Can't test the unbound box too much because overall my friends are not into social sites. Bummer!

Is there anyone out there with a better video demonstration of the product?

Had my invite but suddenly lost access to the site. When I tried to log in one day after first successfully accessing the site, I got this error message: "couldn't log you in with that information". :(
- Philippe
I tried to reset my password and I get this message: "success! we just sent an email to you at". I did not leave my email address out of this message, this is exactly what I get on my screen and one day later I am still awaiting my password reset. I have a bad feeling about this one... :(
- Philippe
Trying it out now but cant seem to add facebook or any other services expect gmail & twitter.
- Usman Bashir
Whoa! This comment stream escaped my notice. We're trying to get threadsy invites out as quickly as possible to everyone who requests one. Thanks for your patience!
- scott
trying it, wish there was a way to filter the twitter stream

NO DAMN WAY!! FF is the best the greatest ever.. no real alternative

Got my invite on Friday night but I haven't tried it yet. The lack of OAuth etc for the various accounts makes me a little worried about putting in my details. For Gmail you just enter your username and password. There's no 'getting permission from Google' stage. It's a shame because I really want to try it...
- Martin Bryant
Martin Bryant: Thats the exact issue i have with it, i did try it out but giving it login details to so many important accounts is the wrong way forward they should look in to other methods of solving this issue like the OAuth, Facebook Connect & etc.
- Usman Bashir
It's great for Facebook and Twitter, but it lacks the features of a full email client. This is a good trend in computing, where people can choose apps independent of the protocol.

It always pissed me off when ppl said Arial is akin to Helvetica. Now I have proof for it ! :)
- embee
Helvetica was licensed by Adobe as a postscript font for Macintosh. Microsoft essentially uses the same metrics and calls theirs Arial. Microsoft wouldn't cough up the change for the real Hevetica. Original Apple Macintosh system font “Geneva” is the truetype replica of Helvetica.
