Nova Spivack on the transformation of the web into the Stream - http://blog.p2pfoundation.net/nova-sp...
"And just as the Web once emerged on top of the Internet, now something new is emerging on top of the Web: I call this the Stream. The Stream is what the Web is thinking and doing, right now. It’s our collective stream of consciousness. (...) Just as the Web is not any one particular site or service, the Stream is not any one site or service - it’s the collective movement that is taking place across them all." - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Wondering how virtual worlds such as Second Life fit into this. As it is explained in the article, the web is not the internet, it developed on top of it. The Stream is developing on top of the Web, or.. on top of the Internet? (which would include parts of the internet which are not part of the web as such, like Second Life and other virtual environments). - roland legrand
I see the games and virtual worlds as you do, using the internet infrastructure but not of Web or Stream. But their community does live in the web and stream. And since we are starting to see games that "sync" with the real world (sports games mostly, for now) so it is possible that in the future some virtual worlds will be in interaction with the stream, being a 3d world containing a... more... - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
since we were talking about this I found this: http://minsh.net/ a fish aquarium virtual world over twitter. Perhaps a sign of things to come? - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Very cool conversation :) Joelle, Roland you're invited to get your fish ;-) - Jonathan Maïm
Hello Jonathan - some good filters you have, you appeared on my twitter and friendfeed very quickly. So what are your thoughts at per Roland's question about how it all can fit? - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)

Twitter friendships and why I took some time off - http://www.main-vision.com/richard...
Another piece worth reading - one of the things I like about Twitter is discovery. A few interesting replies to a friend in my stream and I want to know more. ... about the subject, about the person. With luck, times zones are close enough to allow timely exchanges. For some people, Twitter is enough of our relationship. For others, I want more - blog, linkedin, etc. It helps me get to... more... - MaryAnn Chick Whiteside
It's funny how things have changed, how my understanding has evolved with time. Not sure that many others see it the same way. - Richard A.
I'm not sure it matters how MANY others see it your way as long as the ones you follow and the ones who follow you understand your views. Just like Jeff Pulver clearly defines expectations of Facebook friends, you know what you want from Twitter. - MaryAnn Chick Whiteside
If'll be OK if you change again ... or not - MaryAnn Chick Whiteside
We'll see on the 14th. Going to unfollow a few people on that day. - Richard A.

I've started playing with friendfeed but no one ever reacts to what I say :-(. I'm not at Scoble's level yet
Keep at it. - Robert Scoble
It takes time and commitment, doesn't it? - Alexandros Georgiadis
in the same boat... - alphaxion
It does take time. Just participate and it will come. - Roberto Bonini
takes time even to be a part of the community - Niki Costantini
Part of it is being conversational. Some items invite participation. I don't see a lot that I would comment on or click like on. - Robert Scoble
It also helps, if you subscribe to more people (at least 100-200). The more people you follow, the more interesting things you'll find, the more you'll react and then more people will notice you, too :) It also gives better idea, what kind of things people are interested in. - Jemm
Stick with it and we will soon teach you the secret handshake ;) - Joe Dawson
:-) I don't think Scoble "plays" - he seems to "live" FriendFeed. - Rob Kramer
Rob: yeah. :-) Richard's assumptions are wacky, though. I guess from one angle you can get someone's attention on Twitter because of how the @ system works. - Robert Scoble
What would you like us to react to? - Terence
I am conversational but I need to get into the flow of thins, get used to friendfeed's way of being. - Richard A.
I think more than people commenting on your stuff, i think the key is how much do we comment on other users contribution - Kapil
Well, this thread proves that assertion wrong, doesn't it? ;-) You just started and you are getting way more reactions than most people do. I see you only have one "Like" so far - scan the entries of the folks you are subscribed to and "Like" items that are interesting/useful to you. The person who's entry you "Liked" will often Subscribe to you if they aren't already. - Laura Norvig
that's because I already have a good following on twitter. I've been on FF for quite a while already but finally becoming more active. - Richard A. from IM

"In the past two months I’ve been on two different panels with other entrepreneurs. The first was at WTIA in Bellevue, WA (”Cashing in on Web Services“)– the other panelists were very clearly what I’d call “business entrepreneurs”. All of them had relatively successful funded startups, but not a one of them had probably written a line of code, moved a pixel, wrangled a server, or written a line of copy in months or years (some probably never had)." - Hayk H.
Hayk: you should really put your comment in quotes, that, or add the website-name to the title. I wasn't sure if you wrote this article or someone else. - Vincent van Wylick
You are absolutely right, Vincent. Corrected now! P.S. I only blog about failures. - Hayk H.

Nice, but... since Obama won there seems to be a bigger focus on the racial difference than before. Or is that just me? - TobiasVerhoog.com
What I just noticed is he probably has the second shortest hair after Ike (bald) and John Quincy Adams (#6 for those who don't know). - Andrew Leyden
i'm confused Tobias, not sure what you mena. Clearly yes, race has played a big role in this election. - Zee.
Obama is the first president without grey hair? Really? - Peter
Tobias, voting for or against Obama based on race would have been to vote ignoring all the other other issues at hand so it wasn't a focal point. Now that he's won we're free to focus on the historical moment of having our first minority President and what that means and says about us as a country. - David Knight
@David Knight I think you nailed it. The focus on race that you see right now shouldn't be classed as "since Obama won" but "at the moment of his winning." We have crossed a boundary. We should take note. Now that we've crossed, our attention to Obama's race will dissipate. On the other hand, the fact of his race, name, and lineage will loom large in foreign policy throughout his presidency. - Michael Markman
@gregory lent. Hmm. I see humans. Don't you? - Michael Markman
just realised ceebee posted this earlier - sorry man, didn't realise. - Zee.
Nice - fbrunel
Nice but why only Obama's hair is black? :) - Ahmet Alp Balkan
@gregory. It isn't just coincidence that all 44 are male, and 43 are white. If we want to follow the path to ensuring that differences are not barriers, we can't deny that historically they have been. Following that path requires us to cross some boundaries into new territory. This graphic marks one such boundary. I believe it puts us closer to your wish of "human not color" - Michael Markman
We've come far, FAR, in what amounts to only a couple generations. With not only the memory, but the living memory, still so fresh in so many, acknowledging and even celebrating each step down that road to unity is to pay respect to those did and gave so much to bring us this far. - Michael W. May
I completely agree with your last statement Gregory so why have you bought it up in the first place? (in your first comment) - Zee.
Celebration and Acknowledgment, even Discussion surrounding a Black Man as US President shouldn't be expunged, ignored, or stifled based on the We're All Created Equal argument. That sounds fairly bananas to me. - Marko Bon
There's been some focus on race last night and today, but it will probably die down, just as the focus on gender died down within a few days of Pelosi's elevation to Speaker of the House, or O'Connor's elevation to the Supreme Court. Pelosi and O'Connor were eventually evaluated based upon the issues, and Obama will be (and has been) evaluated based on the same. - Ontario Emperor
i'd have to agree - lets agree on blocking together eh? :) - Zee.
aaah...that feels better. - Zee.
before, it was a talking point. Today it's history, something that sends a huge message to the rest of the world. South Africa did it before us, now we're in the 20th century. 20th. - randulo
You can have unity and still see that people are different. Recognizing and accepting our differences can make us stronger. Unity, not uniformity! - David Knight

Good to see FriendFeed back. Now that you have faced your first downtime that brought FriendFeed to the 2nd most popular search term on FF, maybe you will consider having a separate FF status blog similar to Twitter for people not to start the buzz around every single downtime. - Svetlana Gladkova

Going to conduct an experiment: sign up a separate FF account and behave like a 'user' rather than a geek to see what I can get out of it when outside of the echo chamber.
Its going to be hard to change your mindset. - David Risley
will your user profile subscribe to your geek profile? Would one bleed through into the other? This is really interesting stuff, let us know how it all goes! - Iain Baker
David - I agree but I think it's something worth trying to gain some perspective and a different point of view - Colin Walker from fftogo
But what will you read then? - Cyndy
@Cyndy - that's my question too. Colin - to whom will you subscribe? - Hutch Carpenter
The two accounts will be completely separate and the new one will focus on non-tech stuff. I'll find to subscribe to via searches - not really worked it all out yet ;) - Colin Walker from fftogo
Colin, I do understand. My initial reaction to FriendFeed wasn't exactly positive. Then it grew on me. Still noisy, but I learned to dig it. - David Risley
pseudo handles have always been around- depends what type of online personality you want that pseudo handle to take on. - Peter Dawson
possibly, to tackle David's point about changing your mindset, you could ask a non-tech friend to sign up to FriendFeed and report back to you on their experience. Sounds like a interesting experiment at any rate, Colin. - Scott O'Raw
So THAT's why I got a signup from "NotColin_ForRealz". - Louis Gray
Scary - what if we find out there's life out there? - Aviv
@Louis, hehehe - not done it yet and nothing personal but I won't be subscribing to any of the usual suspects ;) - Colin Walker
@David, my initial reaction soon after launch was similar but I attribute that to not having many 'friends' on it at the time so it didn't really click. Once I subscribed to more people the value became apparent. As for getting someone else to do it, I don't think the experience will translate as well as I would hope. We'll see what happens. - Colin Walker
please do a lessons learned write up on this - love to see your findings! - Susan Beebe
