What do you think if FriendFeed exposes the Friend lists you're in ala Twitter? Thoughts?
I'd need to change some of my list names; for instance "Super Vixens" might become "Wholesome Young Ladies" - RAPatton from iPhone
I thought there was a way to do that...I could just be confused :) - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
HAHA Rap! Rah, there's no way to do it right now - Jorge Escobar
If someone clicks through to something that tracks referrals while they're using a list, then, yeah, you'd see the list names. Sometimes I'll see what list folks have me on when I check my blog stats. - pea ♥ fierce as a woozle
That's correct pea. But the majority of people don't track and/or click through to your items. - Jorge Escobar
I'd definitely would have to change my lists names. LOL - Anika
That would not be a good thing to do after-the-fact. Better to make a separate public lists feature. - LogEx
HAHA Anika -- I'm very SFW, so wouldn't worry. BTW, what list am I on *your* profile, Anika? Quick! - Jorge Escobar
I only have one list, but I'd prefer that list remain private. - Jason Huebel
Choice to make it public is fine. Private by default. - Micah Wittman
Micah: absolutely, you choose to make private or public, like Twitter does. - Jorge Escobar
I prefer how it is here. Users are given a choice to join a group. There's no choice being on a list. - Rodfather
Rod, Groups and Friend Lists are two different things. I'm talking about exposing what Friend Lists you are in your friend's profiles. Like I have 4 Friends Lists: Influentials, Blog Readers, Cool Friends and Español - Jorge Escobar
I would definitely need to rename my FFersILF list... - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
ILF? Is that... - Jorge Escobar
* hopes he's not on Rahsheen's list * - John Craft
:: Hopes he is :: :P - Jorge Escobar
It wouldn't be so bad. My lists names are so plain. :p - Rodfather
Mine are fine. I've, at last, updated them today. - Kol Tregaskes

Mad Men season 3 finale recap: The tribe has spoken! | SeacoastOnline.com
Every action, every fight, every pitch was predicated on the personal relationships we — and the characters — have come to know so well. It's thoroughly satisfying to see everything we've taken in up to this point spill itself on screen with so much activity. This was probably the best — and certainly the most jam-packed — season finale so far and it set us up for an exciting season four. - Jorge Escobar from Bookmarklet
I thought Six Feet Under was going to be uncontested in my favorite series list for a long time. Mad Men is getting so close to take the top spot! - Jorge Escobar
This is the first week of the rest of your life. Make the most of it! #fb
"Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce" -- What a great season finale for #madmen
Blogging is a combination of quantity *and* quality. That's why it's so hard. #blogging #thoughts
@fredabramson I know. Manning kept handing the ball off instead of throwing it.
Coming back from Giants Stadium. What a heartbreaker of a game. #nygiants #fb
I just unlocked the "Newbie" badge on @foursquare! http://foursquare.com/user...
I just want my Xbox to have a web browser, support for YouTube and Hulu #isthattoomuch #fb
Linux. - directeur
You can install Linux on an Xbox? - Jorge Escobar
How the hell didn't I know about this? I <3 you dir! ;) - Jorge Escobar
You cannot install Linux on an Xbox 360, I don't believe - Alex Scoble
Alex, you CAN! :) @Jorge, thanks! I <3 you too! ;) - directeur
What Linux can you install on the 360? Can't do it with the one you linked to. - Alex Scoble
Alex, I guess any distro, since it's a PC after all. Look on youtube you'll see some demos. - directeur
Cool thanks! - Alex Scoble
You're welcome! :) - directeur
Is Twitter the new FriendFeed?
twitter-rt.png
This will become the 'like' function. WhoA! - Jorge Escobar
Just got the notice that I have retweet funcionality on Twitter. This is game changing, people!
@ja_castillo No, I'm referring to a new functionality in Twitter similar to the like feature in FF where you get exposed to new users via RT

is an online tool that makes it easy for you to create, link together, preview, and share mockups of your website or application. - Jorge Escobar
Pondering if the time has come to learn Python. Anyone care to recommend resources or books to start with? #fb
Dive Into Python. - Maxamad (Amazigh)
New edition recently came out. You can get the book in deadtree, or on your computer as pdf or html - Maxamad (Amazigh)
Plus, you can do hg clone so that you can have a repository of it and get the latest updates to the book - Maxamad (Amazigh)
Play with the Tornado server code that runs FF. It does interesting server stuff. http://www.tornadoweb.org/. And get Eclipse with the pydev plugin for a pretty good free IDE. - Ed Millard
I'd say start with the official tutorial and then go for Dive into Python :) - directeur
Wow, thanks guys! Sounds like a good language to dive into. directeur, are you an expert in it? - Jorge Escobar
Jorge, yes it is really a GREAT language! I wouldn't say that I'm an expert (sounds so socialmedia'ish ;-)) - though I use it to write anything I want: CLI, desktop and web apps. From scripts to download anime to the most srs bzns apps ;-) - directeur
