I haven't tweeted in nearly two weeks now, and without regret.

I'm starting to slow my tweets and increase my FFeed activity, too. How have you supplemented the lack of DM or sending messages (ie, @jowyang I'm starting to...)?
- Matt Albiniak
why not publish your FriendFeed activity to Twitter? You've got a very large following on Twitter and if they saw that the conversation is here, you'll likely help grow FriendFeed (your hiatus brought me here). Or are Louis and Robert in charge of all FriendFeed recruitment?
- Stuart Miniman
Stuart's comment makes a lot of sense - easy to setup cross post from FF (Tools menu) to Twitter.

Because I have nothing better to do than speculate on Jeremiah's position, I'd assume #2 in "How I do NOT use Twitter" (from http://poprl.com/At9) might answer that question.
- Matt Albiniak
I was just going to say the same for Stuart. You can mirror your native Friendfeed items to Twitter. Just do it.
- Louis Gray
Twitter's not dead, but it's too mainstream though. FriendFeed just rocks.

Sounds like one of those cigarette personal achievements, "Haven't had a puff in two weeks!"
- Hutch Carpenter
I support feeding Twitter with your FriendFeed activities.. You're a Twitter star anyway.. and I enjoy your tweets..
- Pico Seno
why?

How can you desert Twitter--it's really the world-wide-web in real time.
- PhilTaylor
Matt's correct, these tools have different purposes, and therefore different uses.
- Jeremiah Owyang
me too

Did I just win a t-shirt or something?
- Matt Albiniak
why don't you just have your FF comments automatically sent to Twitter. Kills two birds with one stone.

I continue to be more objective to building momentum on Friendfeed. But, not enough people and companies know about it, or are taking advantage of it, at this time. Looking at the numbers (REF: www.compete.com), I see 556,641 users for November, but there was a monthly drop (Nov 08) in growth, by -12.6%. Not sure why. In defense of Twitter, I believe we're seeing the rise of a global communication platform, where many influentuals are gravitating. I like seeing the quality of person show up on Twitter. Friendfeed, to me, is a great tool for the conversationalist and intellectual. I know all of these available tools are what we make of them. Just believe Twitter brings to the table a timely connection and insight value no other internet tool can deliver, at this time.
