You should like these guys. They've been tearing it up for years, and the new album is totally a step forward for them musically. I know Ed somewhat personally and he's a great guy in real life, too. Holla! - Justin Ward

“Primus is going all out on the classics so far. I'd kill for "Winona's Big Brown Beaver." I'll take a "Frizzle Fry" instead.”

did they hit "jerry?" I know it's basically their Stairway, but still. - matt shobe

Yeah they did play it. He specifically said that he "wanted to shake the dust off" a bunch of old tunes. Good stuff. - Justin Ward

That's a good point. I'd say that I left Facebook lately much in the same way that LinkedIn and MySpace drove me away -- it just wasn't giving me any relevant and current information that I cared about. Having an activity stream of your friends is a little more like actually keeping up with them. - Justin Ward

I think the Facebook newsfeed just fails to tell me anything relevant. Letting me know that someone updated their profile picture is useless to me. That said, I think one of the biggest draws of Friendfeed is that the conversation is happening here. I never used to comment on blogs because I would forget to come back and see if anyone replied. Friendfeed does a great job of updating me on conversations in which I participated. - Christopher Sacca

@sacca i agree that the discussion on friendfeed is great and its even better that i can send to back to twitter where the dick started this - Fred Wilson

Would be great to add all this in blogs, don't you think? - David Álvarez

Facebook is so 2007. :P - Bwana

Fred- The Twitter use case you cite above though doesn't appeal to me. As much as I want to have a conversation with my friends on Twitter, the experience breaks down. Replies often don't make sense because recipients have different notification settings. Also, conversations don't end up in one place and require clicking to separate pages to get the proper context. If I were to create a 140 char version of this comment right now and send it back to Twitter readers of my page would have to work to catch up. - Christopher Sacca

I still use facebook so that I have my address book codified somewhere, but FriendFeed has killed any interest FB's newsfeed - patrick collison

DavidAlvarez, see http://disqus.com. (On that url, why do i always see and think “disgust”? Does this happen to anyone else?) - John Lam

Thanks John Lam - David Álvarez

I never really used Facebook and use FF at my main source of tweeting. - Mike Reynolds

My facebook newsfeed is always filled with Chris Sacca twitters. :-) - Todd Jackson

Todd - that may just be proof of my point about useful and relevant information. :) - Christopher Sacca

Trend? - Igor Poltavskiy

Yep. I deleted my Facebook account recently. - Jason Kaneshiro

Although my use of FF and Twitter has gone up recently, I am still using Facebook to keep in touch and discover old friends. - Christopher Yeo

I would go with that - a cleaner solution I think, less clutter - Nick Lewis
