I miss the site a lot! Not really anything to replace it with 100%. A little here, a little Buzz a little Twitter. I feel like a cyberwhore.

Louis, it's ok to be nostalgic. It's also ok to let go. And it's also ok to to hold on tight. As for me, I think I've gone to both places, and where I am at the moment depends on the day. FriendFeed is people. I've got one 100+ comment post http://friendfeed.com/search... . — Sincerely, A Friend.

FriendFeed IS what Web 2.0 is suppose to be all about. A Social Tool that fosters fluid social interaction with interactive information sharing, interoperability and collaboration. It's a tool that really allows you to establish friendships with new people without being overloaded due to it's design (unlike Buzz). Many may have left and the volume may be lighter but it's still my favorite tool in general and I still see quality threads come in here.

I'm here every day, and barely interested in any other site. As Billy Joel once said, the good old days weren't always good and tomorrow's not as bad as it seems.

I agree with Louis but I'm quick to add that the experience is just different now.

I agree with Akiva who agrees with Louis. This isn't a "XX is dead" post. Just a sigh.

Oh me toooo! Can we make it happen again ??

We can't get them to add features to the core product, but people can write new things with the API and add features to the content creation sites that feed here.

CW, I'm feeling more positive than befits those lyrics.

I don't know, my experience is just as rich as it's ever been. Maybe I'm just easy to please.

These are the salad days. Hopefully we never reach the 'toss my salad' days.

As long as there are bacon bits in the salad, I'm good.

... that and a nice balsamic vinaigrette.

that's the problem of online communities - they cannot move. It doesnt matter how good the community is now, people just wont agree to move to the same place as one... They fragment, people move, new ones form, but large groups just never manage to move as one to a new platform. You get fond memories, and happy surprises when names reappear on another community later.

If by glory days you mean a the most kicking ass social activity aggregator a great community...well that hasn't changed...unfortunately the future of said kickass service and it's evolution could be construed as the missing link...don't mind me i'm drank.

Yeah, we don't have Robert Scoble anymore, but we do have a lot of value.
- Bruce Lewis
It's just that for many people this is no longer the primary aggregator and integration platform, and as a result conversations have slowed down, happen less, and are more often about "fun stuff" - still a good place, but not as stimulating and mind opening as it once was for me
- Iphigenie
sure i do! got very less to read now can't keep up with twitter and there isn't much relevant content in tweets, or we can say it is scattered
