Many people throw fairly new box fans out well before their time. Like most small appliances, people don't take the time to clean them, even though it will make them last much longer. I guess it is easier to put it out for the trash and spend another $20- - Jake Russo

“Twitter poll: do you use Social Thing more than FriendFeed? (asked for @corvida who is twitterfasting today!)”

April 30 at 1:08 pm - Link

Dieter Schwarz, Tony, Mitchell Tsai and 4 other people liked this

not even a fair poll... FriendFeed is open to the public, SocialThing is in private beta... until SocialThing is comfortable enough with their application to actually let people in to give it a fair shake then it really doesn't deserve to be compared to anything. (SocialThing looks prettier from the picture I've seen though.) - Matt Shaulis

Heck no. And tell Corvida she is cheating! Twitter by proxy!! - Sarah Perez

Sarah, that's what I said ;) - Colin Walker

I don't. I liked it at first but friendfeed is more useful to me now. - Phil Glockner via Alert Thingy

No, I use FriendFeed 99.99% of the time. - Mike Reynolds

50/50 Socialthing for posting and FF for reading. i don't exactly know why. - Jay Tannenbaum

FriendFeed wins out.. SocialThing has yet to catch up on services supported and I love the ability to follow ppl not using FF! - coffeesister |_|)

SocialThing will catch up very quickly with their deduplication system that is soon to come. - Chris Wallace via Alert Thingy

No - Hutch Carpenter

FriendFeed wins in my book. - Robert Scoble

I used to prefer Social Thing but FF's won me over. - Akiva Moskovitz via Alert Thingy

FriendFeed - Sally Church via Alert Thingy

FriendFeed, hands down. - Brad Stevens via twhirl

FF, but I can use ST to easily watch all my Flickr contacts. - Russellreno

FriendFeed because of their first mover status, they're not 'private beta', 'founded by ex-Googleers' gives reassurance that my minor time investment was wise - Pat via Alert Thingy

socialthing has a slightly different approach to social aggregation. SocialThing acts as more of a tool to aggregate all of your social networks, while FF is about picking John and Jane Doe and watching *everything* they do. - Jake Russo

social thing didn't work for me (literally seemed broken) and I haven't been back lately.now I am wondering if it is time to check it out. Oh, and twittering by proxy is still twittering. - Seek Ground

Friendfeed wins hands down. SocialThing is broken. - Shan via Alert Thingy

Friendfeed wins, period - Dennis Leung

freidnfeed is better , forget social thing - Mila Frerichs via Alert Thingy

I have to say that I use FF more than Socialthing, but the latter is a MUCH cooler tool. - Tamar Weinberg

friendfeed became much much more valuable when it became an alert thingy air stream, so when will they acquire it, they have the dough, they need the technology ala seesmic/twhirl air.lifestream arms race! - ben barren via Alert Thingy

Absolutely FriendFeed - Lukadium

I use both FF and ST. And what I really want is actually a combination of both. - Araceli

Social Thing doesn't have any advantages that are helpful over FF - and it is all about the social graph - more people are here... - Tony via Alert Thingy

Agreed with Sarah Perez. No twitter means no twitter! And no, I don't use socialthing as much as FriendFeed, by a long shot. But I don't think the two services have the same goals, either. - Phil Glockner

by far FF - julian_marain via twhirl

lol, that proves that SocialThing is an old news - Dobromir Hadzhiev

FriendFeed, but then again, I never signed up for Socialthing - Shey

I signed up for SocialThing, but it didn't do anything for. I use FriendFeed regularly. - Daniel Shaw

no - i just use friendfeed - i don´t get warm with socialthing (but like their logo though) - Dieter Schwarz

Is it really that bad? It doesn't even link back to the site. (via Alert Thingy) - Corvida

Why would they make an API if they didn't want ppl to use it? (via Alert Thingy) - Ryan

I don't mind the name, but I do find the (via) distracting. - Michael C. Harris

I like the name! - Marshall Kirkpatrick

Especially if you write a Greasemonkey script to remove it :) - Mark Krynsky

which makes me wonder if that is why the brackets where removed .. ;) - Nicole Simon
