I was also at this event - but on the 'side' with the appliance distributors (assisting a client). All I kept thinking was "whoa, this PR group has less than ZERO clue" No wonder my consulting and mentoring business is skyrocketing. - Lynette Young

I have to agree, I'm more excited about how the FTC changes will affect 'mainstream' advertising and endorsements than bloggers. Bloggers (for the most part) already take care of their own. - Lynette Young

This comes a few days too late for me! I decided to kick coffee cold turkey and have been suffering the *WORST* headaches I've ever had. Caffeine is the only thing I've ever had an 'addiction' to over the years, and every time it creeps up on me and gets harder to quit. Five days straight with a headache now, but a mug of green tea in the morning is helping. - Lynette Young

This hits home for me. I see a lot of people starting up firms in the SM world without any real thought to business plans, real-world relevant experience not only using the tools, but leading with them. - Lynette Young

Crocs face extinction as maker faces bankruptcy - Telegraph
"...it seems the clogs have also been a victim of their own hardiness as their virtual indestructibility meant that aficionados never needed to buy another pair. As the shoes became a hit across the globe, the manufacturer churned out new variants and dreamed up accessories such as trinkets that could be fitted into the ventilating holes. But it appears the firm substantially overestimated the clog's potential sales as it boosted output. It is now sitting on a warehouse full of unsold shoes and a dwindling number of feet willing to squeeze into them. Few in the retail industry appear to believe the company will survive." - Neville Hobson from Bookmarklet
it really is a shame, as 'ugly' as the shoes are, they are wicked comfortable. yes, all the colors are fun, but sometimes as a company you really need to keep your focus and not try to ride (or create) every whim of the industry. they do wear out though, living in a pair throughout my pregnancy a few years back my favorite pair wore right through the sole just as I arrived at the... more... - Lynette Young

CNN right now: bla bla bla bla Twitter bla bla bla Iran bla bla bla bla. Where is friendfeed and Facebook? Easy CNN doesn't want to get kicked off of the SUL.
I have heard a lot more mention of Facebook in the videos/ interviews I've heard than either twitter or friendfeed in regards to the #iranelection. - Tony
you assume they even know what FB/FF are - Lynette Young
they have been talking about the FB page alot..but no friendfeed - Deb
SUL= Suggested User List. Twitter has about 30 million users. Facebook has about 250 million. Friendfeed has about 1 million. Where is the editorial balance? - Robert Scoble
CNN has mentioned Facebook fairly often, esp. concerning Mousavi's page. Don't know if many Iranians are using FriendFeed to give updates, upload pics/video, etc., so FF may not be a significant part of the equation in this story. - DB
DB: there are tens of thousands of Iranians on friendfeed. The search engine is a lot better here than on Twitter. - Robert Scoble
I read FF was blocked in Iran, but twitter was not, something like that. - Nyan Min
Robert - Fox News 'just' mentioned YouTube, Facebook, Picasaweb and Twitter. JulieBanderas was canvassing opinion on Twitter last week. I posted about it here : http://anzman.blogspot.com/2009... (CNN lost me for now on this one in the states) - Charlie Anzman
I think Twitter is easier to reach when the government is blocking your internet. - Bas
FF is still too early adopter for them. They are committed to Twitter and won't dilute the focus with another SM tool for quite some time. - JP Holecka - Jaypiddy
Lots of Iranians are on FF...but are we sure that CNN even knows about FF? - phil baumann
Twitter is also blocked in Iran. - Robert Scoble
great job at #140conf - I was there. A lot of micro expressions by @ricksanchez - you held up. But right now they're reporting the right news - all social media! - iTbay
And then again, most of the news (regarding #iranelection) is coming out on Twitter, not FF. -- correct me if I'm wrong. - Bas
Bas: you are wrong. - Robert Scoble
It's coming from all over. - JP Holecka - Jaypiddy
Bas: friendfeed is being used by tons of Iranians. Look at all the Farsi posts. - Robert Scoble
We could have the Sony Beta JVC VHS here Robert with FF. Best does not always make it to the top. - JP Holecka - Jaypiddy
Why don't you tweet links to the FF posts to peeps like @JoshLevsCNN and see what traction you get? - phil baumann
hah robert - i recently noted that Fox News is now "Twitter reports...you decide" - maybe they want on the SUL :) - Allen Stern
Robert, why aren't you showing up in their "Blogger Bunch" or whatever they call it to tell them about FF? - Holger Eilhard
Could see FF being a more pliant and journalism-friendly medium than Twitter. More context/background could be added to developing stories here on FF than Twitter. The two together create a lot of synergy. - phil baumann
Robert Scoble: FF may have thousands of users there, but are they using it much to post info during the post-election period, esp. compared to Twitter & FB (I don't know; just asking). Maybe Twitter is easier to access & use on a cell phone than FF? Anybody seen any numbers on usage of FF vs. FB vs. Twitter? - DB
Mainly facebook groups and mousavi have come my way on twitter. I've seen this one more than any other in tweets for several hours today http://www.facebook.com/video... - ( facebook.com/video/video.php?v=89928823259&ref=nf ) it's the shooting of the woman. - Mac Sharp
who cares where the news is coming from: Twitter vs Friendfeed - this is for future debate. Right now Twitter, Facebook, Youtube are in the minds of millions; @anncurry is creating great buzz with Twitter & Youtube & @jeffjarvis is stating Google social responsibility for showing more youtube videos re #iranelection - the debate should focus area this right now! Friendfeed is great though! - iTbay
The Iranian (expatriate?) who called CNN from the Netherlands whose fiance has pictures on iReport called in and said "Twitter, FriendFeed, and Youtube are being blocked." So there was a FF mention. - Chris Lasher
Has anybody tried notifying CNN about using FriendFeed as a source? - Rishabh Mishra (p248)
FF isn't in the mainstream I've always said it's the wannabe facebook lol - orionstarr
orionstarr: that's funny because Facebook keeps copying FriendFeed's features. Just this week Facebook copied another FriendFeed feature (Farsi support). - Robert Scoble
Is there a "FF Room" for the breaking news of the protests? That might gain some attention. - LPH™ and his dog P™
Nobody has to inform CNN about FF. They are a professional outfit. And as long as they are on the SUL, they have a conflict of interest. But it's their choice. - Nick in Manila
Seems CNN haven't quite gotten the point that Iranians have been huge fans of using Friendfeed. - George Hall (Australia)
If CNN were really serious, they'd be using the Friendfeeds from Iran a bit more. - George Hall (Australia)
After searching a bit - there is an interesting FF room on Iran: http://friendfeed.com/iranwat... - LPH™ and his dog P™
lots don't know the diff between Twitter, Facebook and etc. - Eleanor Wynn
Pulling back up a bit, isn't this a key learning from the last week? The revolution within the revolution? - Scotty Perkins
There is one difference everyone must note. Friendfeed is designed for discussions and interaction. But right now, do we need discussions or do we need broadcasting. For all its faults, Twitter is a broadcasting engine. And right now, Iranians are using Twitter as the only means of getting their message out. But when will the Iranian government shut Twitter access down? And if they do, will the broadcasts shift to another channel? - Lorin Olsen
Lorin: Since twitter is such a simple service, served by any kind of simple means, it's exceptionally difficult to shut it down completely. Twitter is great for broadcasting, but not good for controlling widespread rumor and / or panic. FriendFeed is much better for this, but Friendfeed doesn't have the simplicity, and so is easier to cut off. In short, will the Iranian government... more... - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
Facebook has been blocked by the Iranian government - so there's not as much going on there. However, Fox News hasn't stopped talking about Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, and other sites - not just Twitter. - Chad Smith
So far, BBC TV Persian Service has paid very good attention to all social media. They have a program called "Your Turn"[translation] that shows the perspective of the users and they have a very active user on FF (http://friendfeed.com/nobates...). I think we don't see CNN cover FF because their audience isn't using it. BBC Persian is using all these services because their audience is very active in all of them. - Khosrow
