It looks like it may only be iPods. Which is disappointing to me. I was looking forward to Mac news. - Mathew Ballard
I jet hope they don't launch a 32gb or higher iPhone. Then I will be sorry I didn't wait. :( - Jon Price
@Jon I have it form a reliable source that they are a ways from having a 32GB or higher iPhone. It has to do with how much room is available within the chassis of the iPhone. With the extra things required for cellphone their isn't enough room available for the two flash ram chips needed for 32GB. - Mathew Ballard
I'll upgrade to the iPhone 3G when they have a 32GB model and official support for tethering. Otherwise, I'll wait for the next generation which will hopefully have better battery life. - Rick Huizinga
@Rick I was wanting to wait until a 32GB. But, I don't think it will happen for a couple more years. Plus the battery will have to be improved greatly before I could use it as my iPod and phone. - Mathew Ballard
Is there a line in Vegas where we can bet to see if KRose is right in his predictions? I have 5 bucks saying he is right this time. - Mike L
My bet is still that they're getting rid of hard drive based iPods and replacing them with bigger (32gb or maybe even 64gb) iPod Touch - Adewale Oshineye

I feel like I'm missing a central "address book" for all these services and each service requires I follow all the same people all over again. - Sergio Cruz
What's Facebook? You mean that social media site that was popular in early 2008? - Jason Theodor
this is because of their recommendation system...happens to many of us - ouriel
I get LinkedIn contact requests from people with Yahoo.com addresses. Twittermarkerters try to Follow me everyday, so now feedless folks want to jump into Friendfeed. - paul mooney
Vicious cycle of socnets ...augh! I get some weird folks trying to "friend" me up on FB - run, Nooooes!!! - Susan Beebe
Maybe they are Alien Zombies who want to clone you? LOL - Igor The Troll
I don't see a problem. It takes me two seconds to research someone on the Internet and find out if they're interesting... If so, I'll gladly be their 'friend' - I've met a lot of great people this way. - Vince DeGeorge
Steve - Have to agree with Vince. 30 seconds to see if someone can be a benefit, interesting or just fun. Of everyone I've green lighted, I only had to stop two. You never know who has the next interesting story or product. - Charlie Anzman
Illustrates the circles of friend-ness in the mediums - following on Twitter/FF/Digg is viewed to be not as intimate as a being connected in Facebook where LinkedIn is just a research system for a job... - Todd Bremner
There are some people who are simply stretching out, following new folks for new influences. They're not all spammers and stalkers. - Chris Baskind
I recently felt weird about that too, but instead changed my strategy for how I use Facebook. Instead of denying contacts, I've just changed/deleted my personal info like my street address and private data, etc. SO now I can participate with anyone there that wants to participate with me, without worry. - Andrew Baron
@AndrewBaron - That's a great point. Though there is a strange dichotomy between the site as a friend book or a networking site ... - David Weiner
I have a limited view friend list and if the person seems reasonable, ie a non spam mer, and like they have a reason to want to link, I will add them in that category. means there is not that much to see, tho. For me FB is a good contact manager for less professional associations than linked in. - susan mernit
What would it take to make this "centralized address book" that Sergio talks about? will something on top of OpenID do it? - jonathan
I reserve Facebook for people I know. I turn down a lot of FB requests. But if they are a FOAF or someone interesting, I include a note explaining how I use FB and suggest we connect on Twitter or FriendFeed. - Ryan Kuder
Steve, those of us who experiment w/ all these platforms need to discuss how we're using each. I'm like you, I don't follow via FF as many as I do other ways. But at times find it redundant to twitter. I'm still trying to figure out exactly where I want to stamp out redundancy and where redundancy makes sense. - Rex Hammock
it would be much better if they actually wrote a brief note in the friend request and told you why they wanted to be your friend and a bit about themselves. Just because you don't know them does not mean you should not. ;) - Rodney Rumford
Since when do you have to know someone to friend them on a social network. That's just crazy talk. - Bwana
I think it's that Facebook doesn't allow you to "subscribe" to people you don't know, so you have to "friend" them instead to see what they're up to. Steve, you're just popular and people want to know what you're up to and they're just not early enough adopters to know about friendfeed. Come to think of it WHY ISN'T FACEBOOK API'd into FF? - Chris Aldrich
I use the same rule on Facebook and experiencing several friend req's per day as well. If I don't remotely know you I don't accept you on FB - James Andrews
ask for a fans page like I did, they can just add you, you don't have to add them - Loic Le Meur
I find that sort of reasoning a little odd...the whole point of all of these networking tools is to broaden your network. If I don't know someone, I let them prove their worth to me. It's easy enough to delete a contact or block a follower later on. - Justin Whitaker
I turn down many because I DO know who they are... - Tim Wright
Whatcha gonna do with the Great Unwashed? ;-) - Chris Baskind
I don't have a problem with strangers, but I really do not like it if they pollute the newsfeed. They can do that on Twitter/FF, potentially, Facebook is reserved for the people I know. - Vincent van Wylick

A stranger walks by and says hello. You ignore them because you don't know them. Is that social? - LPH™
@LPH In NYC yes because 9 times out of 10 they're either going to try to rob you, beg from you, or scam you. I think the same rules can be safely applied to the internet. - Erica Baker
The rule for Facebook used to be: if you walked by the person on the street, would you say hello? Yes, they are your friend. No, reject. People seem to have lost that as the site scaled and now think it is MySpace. - Nicholas Molnar
Just an interesting question here! How can you know if someone is interesting or not if you have blocked them on Friend Feed not based on your interaction with them, but just because a power user has bocked them? Can you answer this for me? - Igor The Troll
Many people who request to add me as a friend I really don't know personally but we've met on some social sites and I only know their nicknames over there which are often not their real names (that they are presented with on Facebook). So when I send a request to such a "social network" connection myself, I invariably add an explanation like "It's Svetlana, we are connected on..." - and I expect the same courtesy from others. I don't think it takes much time to add a short note. - Svetlana Gladkova
having relevance how? differnt tools for different purposes. it would make more sense to me to compare your feedburner number to the ff number than this. - Nicole Simon
96%. But I've largely abandoned Twitter and spend alot more time here. My guess is I pass 100% in the next few weeks as FF is growing faster than Twitter. - Thomas Hawk
