Now this would be great advice if I actually had a blog.

Bookmarked, thanks.

Excellent. Thanks for the tips. I may take a run at the Wordpress Plugin.
- AJ Kohn
Sweet list, thanks!
- Shey, Jamaican of FF
Thanks for mentioning me!

from fftogo
No problem Benjamin, you and Paul opened up a lot of possibilities
- Bwana ☠
APIs are powerful things; FriendFeed (and RSSmeme) both have them and I want more people to understand that it isn't complicated to use them.
- Benjamin Golub
good read though I closed my blog......via feedalizr
- bvs
A lot of folks including myself are intimidated when they hear "API"
- Shey, Jamaican of FF
I never thought the RSS mechanism would work differently with the API. Ignorance I guess. I have some experience working with Twitter and Jaiku APIs and I don't think they did this. I could be wrong.
- Bwana ☠
I wish the plugin worked on WP.com blogs.
- Jennifer Leggio
I just wish there was a general solution to allow everyone to use this great plug-in. I tried having a go to get it to work on my Tumblr blog but it wasn't having any :¬( Good solid HTML widget to add to my CSS is what's needed ;¬D

Pat Hawks already had a proof of concept for Blogger, I thought?

I'm working on a php script that merges Friendfeed likes and comments with Disqus comments. Still in early stages, but let me know if anyone would like to take a look (twitter klecu or comment on my blog http://klecu.com/article...)
- Kevin L
When I blogged this (May 28), no Blogger solution existed.
- Bwana ☠
I just went through the process of adding friendfeed to my own site (holgr.com) last week and also found your site. It's a good starting point! Unfortunately the "default" options are pretty scarce and not really flexible. Fortunately - however - the API is so simple that you can create a nice embed yourself using the documentation.

Any idea what the citation for that quote is?
- Kirk Kittell
Kirk, I found it here on the Getty's website. http://www.getty.edu/art... I recently went down and shot the Getty. It is an amazing museum with a fantastic "photography allowed" policy. Admission to the Getty is also free which I think is just beautiful. Here's a few of my Getty images from my shoot there: http://www.flickr.com/photos...
- Thomas Hawk
One of my favorite things to see at the Getty was a painting done by the famous photographer Walker Evans. Although Evans is very well known for his photography, I'd never been aware that he painted as well. Here's a photo of one of his paintings. http://www.flickr.com/photos...
- Thomas Hawk
Thanks, Thomas. I'll ask them, see if they know the citation (looks like it's from an autobiography). In the age of teh internets, mis-cited and incorrect quotations drive me nuts. I don't think you're getting it wrong, but I wanted to copy the quote myself...

Read your story about this guy. I love projects like this, they really make it all worthwhile.
- Nick Lewis
@Thomas - Just curious if you are collecting release forms for each of these portraits? I'm really enjoying following this project...
- Justin Korn
Justin, I'm not getting release forms. I don't plan on using these portraits in any commercial way that I might need one for. It's more a personal project than something I'd hope to turn into something somehow commercial. Fine art photographs though don't preclude me from publishing without a release form. If there ever was any money at all from this project I'd donate 100% of it back to some sort of homeless advocacy agency.
- Thomas Hawk
@Thomas - fair enough. Thanks for taking the time to explain.

This is a wonderful project, keep up the great work.

Agreed, I'm a big fan of Greasemonkey scripts for FriendFeed, Twitter and Google Reader.
- Mike Reynolds
Maki I presume the scripts that hide comments will hide the comments on your browser. As social media industry member I cannot imagine you recommending to someone to hide from yourself the criticism of what other people are saying about you, your brand, our your company! I believe that we all need to manage our reputation by knowing what people are saying about us. If we pretend that we live in a vacuum we will lose. We all need to be transparent about our activities!
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
@Igor Chill out dude. What script are you actually talking about? And of course it's all local since you're the one installing the greasemonkey scripts (duh).
- Maki
I made reference to some scripts on the link you provided! Nothing to Chill. I just made attention to comment blocking script!
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
Maki I know you would not use a script like that, because you are transparent! But some people may, so I pointed out the problems.

I manage to wait until after work most days. Sheesh. Now, I'm just up until 2am every night... I suppose that's what hobbies are for, though. AlertThingy certainly doesn't help... I've stopped using it for now. Hopefully, after some time at FF Anonymous meetings, I'll be able to achieve a better balance and use all of my fun toys again. ;-)

"I think the best analogy I can come up with (and its a bit of a dramatic one, so take it with a grain of salt) is trying to do all your work in a Starbucks filled with friends, colleagues, and all of their friends and colleagues. And everyone is yelling, and there are no headphones available. And every now and then, someone yells something that you feel the need to respond to. So you do. By yelling."

I had some friends in 1999-2000 who tried e-mail, then bailed for 6-12 months because they couldn't handle the disruption/addiction. I can't wait for the entire world to be as interesting as possible... Imagine 1 million FriendFeeds (instead of lots of boring news)... if we could each find channels/communities/etc... which interested us easily among the 6 billion people in the world. Right now, we're handling the noise by simply not being able to hear 99.9999% of the people. The future... :-)

- Darren Rowse
I go back to how Louis Gray termed it: FF requires Continuous Parallel Attention. It's not easy to balance but, when you can manage, it's really good. On the other hand, this makes me wish there was at least some way of privately ear-marking items on FF so I can come back later and give them more attention when I have more time to give.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Yes! I think that every day, Akiva... I've started visiting sites, bookmarking, back to FF, site, bookmark, FF and the loop continues. So much to read & learn...

Avoid disruption, sure. Be selective in what you follow, now that I am REALLY struggling with. Too many good things happening out there.

FF has the potential to be really distracting (and interesting). Now I have disciplined myself to use it only at scheduled times during the day on my calendar or it becomes a big time thief. Discipline, discipline, discipline!
