well i be darned .... we now can rejoice, since fast paced additions to already good product are surely fastly coming about off the feedpipe ... it'l be a hectic season of finest upgrades ... I'm sure they'l start with keyboard shortcutze. ... I mean Google Reader rules on that. Intelligent to the extreme. ..Google.com, on the other hand - are we sleeping? .. not even "/" ??.. and that... more... - pb:

Congrats Ben! Totally agree with Jason. Our latest project wouldn't have become feasible without Ben -- I'm just so glad we managed to get a fraction of his time before he left! :) - Simon

Congratulations, Ben! You're joining an awesome team. - Anne Bouey

Wow, looks like somebody bumped this! - Kevin Fox

I think there were a bunch of spam comments made to some 2009-era posts by FF employees. For some reason even after the spam is nuked, the post stays bumped. - Stephen Mack

Yes, I blocked a spammer that was bumping old posts about FF themes and what not. - Zulema ⋅ spicy cocoa tart

OH HAI! - Eric

Well, let's see this as an opportunity to raise a virtual glass to Ben and FriendFeed-that-was! - Kevin Fox

It probably had something to do with the Tornado 2.2 release. I noticed Ben was the one who posted about the release on HN earlier. Edit: Or it could have just been a spammer. *shrugs* - Jimminy, CoG of FF

I don't think it had anything to do with the tornado release - a spammer bumped a bunch of Bret's old posts today. - Ben Darnell

First one, the pink is too distracting in the second. - Kol Tregaskes

What's up with the pink hate, Kol?! - Scoble, Alex Scoble

how all y'all all pick the first one with its uneven horizon is beyond me. ;) except Bruce, he gets a pass. COS HE IS RIGHT! (and this may be on of those times when the jesting tone i'm going for is lost in pixel-land) - Lnorigb

I'd actually like 1 better if backround was totally blurred out. napkins even blurred are distraction to ,me - WarLord

Heh, Lnorigb, sounds like you like number 2 because it's cropped perhaps? - Scoble, Alex Scoble

Two looks technically better then one. more level. more centered. if thats cos it's cropped so be it. but when your shooting multiples of things all lined up you had best triple make sure your horizon is level (or so outta whack I know it's a style thing) cos UGH it.is.so.distracting. *steps off soapbox* =) - Lnorigb

Or you can fix it with the straighten tool in Photoshop in like 3 seconds. :D - Lix

@Scoble, Alex Scoble: you don't see the left side of photo is higher then the right? And yr lens is shooting into the corner of the wall instead of straight down the scene? The last sentence could be style but I think it's hand in hand with your uneven horizon and I'll guess it's cos your pawing your camera w those big strong sexay man hands! - Lnorigb from FFHound!

No, I think the unevenness you are seeing is because the glasses in the background as well as the plates weren't stacked perfectly straight. The two shots were taken from the same angle in that regards, no angle correction was made on either, the shot with the blurred foreground was just taken by pulling the monopod and camera backward a bit to change the point of focus. - Scoble, Alex Scoble

Our alarm clock has 2 different alarms you can set on it, so when the twins (high school) are home, my wife uses an alarm set for 5 a.m. When it's just the little one (elementary school), she uses an alarm set for 6:01 (I accidentally went past 6:00, and didn't feel like changing it).

You can now get a daily or weekly email digest for anybody's feed on FriendFeed. You'll get a daily or weekly email with the most popular posts from that person's feed. To get the email, click the "Email/IM" link at the top of anyone's feed, and select the "Best of day" or "Best of week" email option.

Thanks to Kevin for doing a great design for what turned out to be a more complex set of UI options than we had originally anticipated, and thanks to Tudor for implementing the email backend. - Bret Taylor

Great! Thanks! Love FF! - Scott Monaco

I now get the FriendFeed Feedback posts as a Best of Day email so it doesn't fill up my feed, but I don't miss feedback. I also set up a "Best of Day" email for my "Technology people" friend list so I get a pretty good overview of tech news every day via email. - Bret Taylor

This is a really cool idea Bret, I wish you can make that an RSS feed option as well. I'd be much more likely to read summaries in RSS than in email. - manielse (Mark Nielsen)

Mark: http://friendfeed.com/bret... - Casey Muller

Lovely. Thanks guys. - Mitchell Tsai

Casey: Thanks for the tip. What's the 7 before the "?" mean in the URL? The number of likes or replies needed to be included? - manielse (Mark Nielsen)

this is killer, the random influx of email during the day was kinda getting fail-ish. I love the daily digest. - Drew Lucas

Very cool! Any way to get archives of previous months? (especially helpful for those of us who leave the internet for weeks at a time...) - Mitchell Tsai

WOW. that's really helpful！ - K.D.

Looks like a great addition for those who are not embedded on the site. Nice intro. - Louis Gray

Cool! - Josh Haley

Just curious - at what time of the day will we get these emails ? Midnight US-Time, or will it respect our timezones ? - Ahsan Ali

Ahsan: it is somewhat random right now when the emails are sent, but we built in the backend capability to control what time they are sent, and we plan on exposing that control to users in the future. Right now, it is kind of random - sorry! - Bret Taylor

Thanks Bret - Ahsan Ali

Cool! can i get a daily or weekly email digest for the "Saved searches"? - 0M0M from email

Cool - Nimaa

This will be incredibly useful. Thanks to all involved in the design and execution. - Kathy Fitch

Nice addition! - Michael Fidler

But what exactly is "Best"? Is it anything that has a certain number of likes/comments? - Laura Norvig

@Bret LOL THAT WAS MY PROJECT! I will release it tomorrow. But you've also did it and killed my friendfeed application **sigh** But mine has multi-reporting weekly-daily-monthly at the same time and adjustable entry count! - Alp

@Bret please consolidate me or I won't code new apps with you api! :-) - Alp

Alp: we were not trying to withhold data. Later today the documentation will be updated to reflect the ability to obtain "Best of" for users. The feed id will be USERNAME/summary/N (similar to "Best of" for lists) - Benjamin Golub

Hi Ben, that is pretty funny, I tried that URL earlier today to see if it has been secretly released :) - Paul Kinlan

Bret: While Twitter struggle to keep their fail whale under control, you guys are developing stuff like this. Amazing - Thanks! - Jim Connolly

awesome feature, this will be highly useful for my corporate group ideas / content sharing; projects, etc.... THANK YOU :) - Susan Beebe

Great work. I especially like that it works on lists too. - Meryn Stol

my inbox might say different, but I like that :-) - Dobromir Hadzhiev

Wow, this is really neat! And it links into the idea I expressed earlier, re: reducing signup friction / enabling limited guest privileges. Imagine if I could embed one of my FF rooms on my personal web site, and enable people to subscribe to that feed by e-mail with just a couple of clicks... rather than saying "you can get e-mail notifications but you have to sign up for Friendfeed first." "sign up" -- though admirably lightweight on FF -- is still a huge barrier. - Adam Lasnik

is there a love button cause I dont like this option I LOVE this option..great work guys - (jeff)isageek

Three options I would like (1) Can I select "top 100" instead of "top 30"? (2) Could I select both "best of day" and "best of week"? (3) How about older timeperiods? I'd love to get an e-mail with stuff from last week or Mar 2009? Start & end dates? Anything to help me read FriendFeed off-line would be great since I spend long periods off-line at festivals (especially during summer time) or overseas. - Awesome job guys! - Mitchell Tsai

So this works on groups too, cool! But we still cannot see Best of for groups on the site on friends lists. :-( I have several friends lists that include just groups and when I select to view the best of the page it's empty (even though if I got to the individual best of for those groups there are entries there). - Kol Tregaskes

does anyone know of a web service that can do this? (I'm thinking weekly email updates of my favorite feeds/people) I don't think there's anything like friendfeed .. - Friendfeed's Francisco

That's a cool feature - Xitong Liu

FWIW this isn't working for me any longer. Perhaps that has something to do with my Gmail settings though. - Mark J Subtly Severe

Emails no longer get sent except for Subscriptions. The last non-sub email I recieved was July 15th, 2011. - Jimminy, CoG of FF

What am I supposed to get when I click the 'recommend friends' link on someone's pop-up? Currently, the popup just goes away and I don't get directed anywhere else. - FFing Enigma

Fred: yah, unfortunately, you can only recommend people who you are subscribed you and who are also subscribed back to you. - Bret Taylor

Mark, I didn't submit a bug report since what is supposed to happen wasn't actually spelled out on the blog post or here; this might be the intended functionality... I hope not, but it's possible. - FFing Enigma

Tina: it is supposed to pop up a dialog. Sorry for the trouble - we will look into it. - Bret Taylor

At first I did not understand this, but now that I am checking it out, it is brilliant and addresses much of what we have complained about. NOW what will we complain about? - Liza + = ?

Just to confirm Bret, the first image in the blog post is what the pop up is supposed to look like, right? Because that's nothing like what the ff.com/recommend page looks like.... - FFing Enigma

I notice that new subscriptions are automatically added to one's home feed. I consider that kind of a bug. - Meryn Stol

Tina: yes, that is correct. The http://friendfeed.com/friends... page is just a list of people that we think could use some friend recommendations since they have few subscriptions. If you click on any of the "Recommend" links on that page, you will see the same, standard "Recommend friends" dialog. - Bret Taylor

User-driven...I like. - Josh Haley

Where would we find recommendations that others suggest to us? - Fred Yankowski

@Bret, who receive the recommandation see also who is the recommender? - Roberto

Fred: You will receive an email as well as a notification on the top of your feed. - Ross Miller

Roberto: yes, they see who recommended - Bret Taylor

Bret, if I recommend friends to people who haven't signed in for a long time, will they get email? A lot of my bored friends are not active FF users I think. (quite logical) - Meryn Stol

Not getting the pop-over when I click 'recommend' on the friendfeed.com/friends/recommend page either... FFox 3.0.12 if it's relevant. - FFing Enigma

and can I see who has accepted my recommendation? - Roberto

Roberto: You won't be notified if they accept/deny as the recommender. - Ross Miller

Ross: Ah, it just appeared on my feed. Cool. (And thanks Meryn) - Fred Yankowski

Meryn: yes, they will get an email with your recommendations - Bret Taylor from email

Bret, I accidently just received an email with previous recommendations. I had already viewed them through the web-interface. But indeed, it's there. Email looks good too, as I expected of course. :) - Meryn Stol

hey Robert Scoble....I have a trade proposal....you send my name to all your friends...i send your name to all of my friends for the rest of my life.... - Bob DeMarco

I would like that deal, too, Scoble. I like this a lot. - Ben Hanten

Bob: I charge $1 per friend. :-) just kidding, but the UI makes it so hard to send you to more than a few people. - Robert Scoble from iPhone

Bret: You guys rock! This is so much better than FollowFriday, which I recommended just a while back. Now, I'm waiting for some recommendation emails! :) - Mahendra (SkepticGeek)

If there’s something about friends and family not having their account set up properly, I’d prefer a way to recommend them the streams they forgot to add. For example, I could tell them “You forgot to add your Digg stream and your fourth and eight blog. Here’s the link.” Then he could just click the recommendation and had it set up easily. - Natsuki Seika

Definitely better than #followfriday. - Bernie Goldbach

As I have lots of subscriptions the pop-up window is *really* slow and always has been since the new UI (same thing for amending friends lists). :-( I like the feature though, so I could make a new friends list of my most recommended users and use that each time for each user? - Kol Tregaskes

Shoot. Now I need a subscription. - Josh Haley

I'm all for improving the format of notifications, but wonder (aloud) if it is such a smart move to include the Approve/Reject link right at the top (unless it only appears in private feeds to which someone has requested access). Right now we have the option of blocking/ rejecting a subscriber at any time but presumably not at the very outset. This may lead to more of a walled gardens' mentality, already very prevalent at FF. - ianf ⌘

The new emails are AWESOME! - April

Gmail automatically showed me the images in a subscription email, even though I never told it to (you know how gmail has the 'display images below' option). further, it doesn't give me the option to hide the images. not that I'd want to, but how are you bypassing gmail's security feature to hide the images? - chrisofspades

Chris, we don't do anything special. I'm not sure how gmail decides what images to show, you'd have to contact them or check the gmail help. - Casey Muller

Casey, you sure FriendFeed's founders didn't use some of their "we created Gmail" mojo? ;) - chrisofspades

Chris, the "show images" only applies to external images hosted on other sites. Gmail doesn't show those by default because doing so would allow people to "bug" email. We include the images with the email so that they can be displayed immediately. - Paul Buchheit

ahhhh that explains it. thanks Paul. - chrisofspades from email

If you use the FriendFeed Facebook application make sure you've configured it properly. We are switching to a new method of publishing in the not too distant future. If you see this message at http://apps.facebook.com/friendf... just click on the link to provide the proper permissions. (via http://friendfeed.com/bgolub...)

A little late on the info as I deleted this link last week at I was told I was pushing all of my FF to FB people were not happy. - Ed Mason

why do you not post the link comments from friendfeed to the wall? just the links loses 80% of the value. - Gregor J. Rothfuss

I'm tired the FriendFeed Facebook app. keeps asking me to fix "the problem" so it can post to my wall. I don't want it to post to my wall! Contacts on Facebook and FriendFeed are different types for me. On Facebook it's about being friends in real life, on FriendFeed it is about interests. At least that is how I use FF and FB. My Facebook friends would probably feel I was spamming uninteresting stuff if my FF posts where copied to FB (well, at least if I used FF so intensive as I want to:-))... - Stig Nygaard

Please let us select what to publish on FB from FF? I'd rather have tweets not appear on FB, particularly as I post from Ping.fm to FB and Twitter. - Kol Tregaskes

New publishing method? I hope nothing will change for those FF users who don't use Facebook. (am I alone here?) - Olivia Lovag from twhirl

I agree with Gregor ... By not having the comment sent with the link, it's just plain and boring and I'd rather just post directly to Facebook. Unfortunately, however, this would negate the very useful benefit of using the "Share on FriendFeed" bookmarklet. - Dewade Fowler

I don't mind it publishing to my wall, but I don't want it to be my status update. It worked fine before y'all fixed it! (Go ahead. Roll your eyes.) ;) - Shawn Zehnder Rossi

I get that cannot publish message all the time, because I specifically took away its permissions to publish to my wall. If the FF app gave me some sort of control over what it put on my wall, then I'd give it permissions to do so. As it stands, if everything I posted to FF made it to my FB wall, I'd be defriended by 90% of my friends rather quickly. - Otto

Yay for new publishing methods! stream.publish FTW! - Jesse Stay

I don't want to publish my friendfeed updates to facebook, they're too many. I blocked it and i'm always receiving error messages on facebook. - Oscar

On the same environment, I saw that lite.facebook.com is fast as hell! With proxies, my comments gets directly inputted while FriendFeed takes a couple of seconds, one step at a time. And the message, as Oscar said, is always present if you decide to stop FriendFeed from posting to said service when you have the application on FB.

How is this even a question? Of course they are Argentinian. Brits (French and Dutch, for that matter), need to get over the vile practice of colonialism as much as the US needs to stop "occupying" other lands. - Anika from FFHound!

Actually I think the general censor is they want to stay but either way it's up to the people of the Falkland Islands. - Kol Tregaskes

+1 Kol - Todd Hoff

And then there's that. I would agree. - Anika

This one's always weird for me - I'd go with the opinion of the Islanders, since there wasn't an indigenous population when the Islands got settled by various colonizing forces (both sets of names come from French and British sources). - Jennifer Dittrich

Louis Gray

Hey FriendFeeders! I love you guys. One of the big differences between FriendFeed and Google+ so far has been the different approaches to common names, nicknames and pseudonyms. Today, there is an announcement that expands support for nicknames, and what we call established pseudonyms, which you've been using for a while. https://plus.google.com/b...

I'm hearing the +1 button is working more like the FF Bookmarklet. I'll reserve comment until I've checked it out. As to the 'nym issue, for some the damage is done. The initial responses and actions/reactions from Google were more telling than their change of mind. - caj needs a haircut from FFHound!

Would "Warmaiden, HoneyBoom Shitstirrer," be acceptable as a name? I'm asking for a friend. - I like big Botts

@LG- pseudonyms vs Real identify. ?? What ever happened to google wanting to control real World ID's and ID management across the various ecosystems. When Google+ come out, they removed pseudonyms a/c's and created a Backlash. Dont your think its easier to say "hey we sorry- we f*%ked up and trying to settle the issue for the community. The ecosystem is a community, for the community and by the community.. no corporation can control that. - Peter Dawson

NOW I have my real name out there and for what? ratz - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed

Glen, I bet "Warmaiden, HoneyBoom Shitstirrer" would probably not pass due to the last word containing a naughty phrase. - Louis Gray

Caj, I don't believe the +1 button is looking more like FF's bookmarklet, but I can check again. As for the nym issue, it's been a very public discussion, obviously, one without an easy answer. - Louis Gray

Peter, control is not a word any of us would use. Note I joined in August after the initial discussions. I think today's move is a great improvement. - Louis Gray

@LG, so if this is the No case on control - how can you explain the fact the SERP are different on various H/W devices ? After all , is that not control on what is being displayed... further more the fact that G+ is heavily used in the indexing of Google Plus pages ?? Seems that something is heavily flawed with Goggles theory .. and yes we all know that you joined later in the game, but... more... - Peter Dawson

@KG, actually I stand corrected.. I emailed Barry of SERoundtable.. seems google results are 1+ (one off) syndrome.. more like a bug rather then a feature .. ! - Peter Dawson

YAY+!!!! - .LAG liked that

Based on Yonatan's comments at https://plus.google.com/u... it sounds like FriendFeed must invite awfulness because there are names like "m9m" and "Micah" and "whatever" and "CW" and "LAG liked that" and "caj is meh". Is FriendFeed that awful? - Amit Patel

Being able to modify your name to suit your mood or desire is a PLUS for Friendfeed in my book. - caj needs a haircut

Also, I don't understand your comment "...FriendFeed must invite awfulness...". - caj needs a haircut

I'm just laughing that 'Micah' is one of the names chosen :)) - WoH: Minding her Botts

^Seriously, I know two people named Micah! On FF and in real life! - Zulema ⋅ spicy cocoa tart

Although, we could all update our names so his comment makes even less sense. :) - caj needs a haircut

To be honest, I think it is a step forward, and I also understand why ppl are still upset. I didn't like it, either, but to me it was much bette than the awfulness of the Quora debacle. I had already chosen to go by my 2 names on Google+, and my biggest problem now is how to deal with multiple email addresses, blogger logins and YouTube accounts. - WoH: Minding her Botts

¿WTF is a "Micah"? - Micah from FFHound(roid)!

You know, I think Louis may be right. With the ability to set any name at all on FriendFeed, just take a look at what's happened here! It's truly appalling. - I like big Botts

Micah is indeed awful. - Mellyboo {$5.50 Hugs}

It's a tragedy of epic proportions. Also, sleep is awesome. - caj needs a haircut

Still forces you to use your real name, all this does is open the ability to associate a nickname that you might be known by elsewhere, and personally that's not good enough. I refuse to adopt any social network that doesn't allow me to maintain my online anonymity. - Benny Bucko <Team Melly>

What caj said. Botts has taken name-changing to it's highest art form. Look, I can do it too! ==> - Laura Norvig

I think I prefer the Google+ way of naming. You can add and display a nickname but it still shows your real name. It gives some control of names, there is always a constant in the name so its easy to see who you are but at the same time you can add a bit of fun with the nickname. - Kol Tregaskes

"Quora"? What a dumb name? - I like big Botts

Glen, I imagine the naming committee who took the final vote on the name didn't have a quorum that night. Just a hunch. - Micah

A recent change in FF: now the comment count shows total number of comments (previously multiple comments in one thread only counted as one) http://friendfeed.com/e... so all the numbers above are from the old methodology.... - David HC Soul

Thanks, Glen and pea! - Micah

Looks like my ratio as flipped again (comments back to dominating again). Seems to match my own awareness I've lately been commenting without Liking (commenting is my inherent recognition of value to me and the additional Like is when it merits an extra bump to help discovery by others). - Micah

.87 - Nine

Thanks JA, Chris (wow, 12+ is unusual :), Serkan and Nine! - Micah

Micah.. I told you I take my likes seriously; ). You *might* want to ask (in a separate post) what percentage of likes were used to "bookmark" a post or save it for later VS actually "liking it". I NEVER used like for that.. but I did use a private group that if filled with my own topics (and comments).. - Chris Myles

1.78 (8529/4782) - Micah

Likes are down relative to comments, which matches my much lower frequency of liking. I'm a more selective liker than ever. - Micah

I don't think I could argue that any particular kind of ratio is "best", because if Lurkers like to Lurk and cultivate (via Likes) and the Chatty-ites love to chat, to pump out much many more comments than Likes, each can be happy and make for a great social experience. - Micah

383/372 - Ashish

'Just clicking "Like" seems too easy' — Jason, that's because you're from the Chatty-ite tribe :) - Micah

Thanks, ashish. - Micah

wow, what a difference time makes, when i 1st posted on this thread, 6.43%, now = 1.25%, for a 5.18% difference, :o (and this is the earliest post to date i've recovered of my activity on ff) - chaz2b

chaz, I think there's been a big fluctuation for most people (maybe not that much). This is the oldest post on which you commented that you've recovered? - Micah

Thank you, Alex :) - Micah

that was my third post... It's interesting to see how the number has changed. of course, I manipulated the number to a degree, because I stopped "liking" things for a while... - Bren

Bren, the other thing that can seriously throw off someone's stats is a feed that upon each item it imports adds a comment automatically. - Micah

true. that can seriously inflate comment stats, of course. Then you have someone like RAPatton, who posts a gazillion comments, in part because of his playlist posts where he will list each song in a separate comment. I found, after this post in fact, that I tended to "like" things much more frequently than comment on them, that I was lurking instead of participating. I have changed the way I use ff rather considerably, and I think for the better. - Bren
