Glad you like. I am ordering some of these from the artist, for sure. - Jennifer Leggio

Thanks for sharing the link! - Jennifer Leggio

She has lots of cool picture up on Flickr. Some of her work was on Home Makeover. Despite that, I like her style. - RAPatton

Haha, I didn't know that about Home Makeover. I'm definitely going to try and order these four. Maybe others. It fits my decor well. - Jennifer Leggio

Oh, nice. - Jennifer Leggio

I think they are pretty cool. The color schemes are warm - RAPatton

Yeah, they're awesome! Thanks for the link from me too! I love the colors and I love circles. These trees warm the cockles of my heart. :-) - Lisa L. Seifert

Ironically I found this while searching for a new Twitter background. Hers came up in an image search and I found my way to her site. - Jennifer Leggio

Those trees are exactly what I want for my son's room - Liz Polay-Wettengel

I've been thinking the same thing as I've been checking out fellow FF users who have been subscribing to my FriendFeed. This will help me to decide whether or not to subscribe to them as well. I hope that Ben Golub is listening :-) - Thomas Ho from fftogo

There's a part of me that likes the leveling aspect of ff - without profiles, you either know the person by her name or reputation established elsewhere, or her content speaks for itself. But I'd also like to do some networking here and profiles make it easier to search and find people who are doing the same thing. - Todd Mundt

Yeah, shouldn't be too hard to add that. I'd love to also see a blurb about FF'ers in the little popup box when you hover over the username. - Paul Short

It would certainly save going to Twitter to read their bio and check out their website. - Sally Church from Alert Thingy

The assumption is that the bio is useful. Ultimately I've relied more on what a person posts than what their bio says. - Todd Jordan

Don't add mini-profiles! I like how FriendFeed sticks to basics (it's "core competencies"). I enjoy looking at people's LinkedIn/Twitter/Facebook pages for the other info. However, a pop-up with some mini-profile stuff might be helpful (ala Sally Church). Just don't clutter people's main pages with more stuff like most other social networks. - Mitchell Tsai

very true. at least a fields for real name and an url - kosmar

yes, i agree on that. Maybe even a more detailed profile page?...via feedalizr - Ryo / Fuck Facebook

Why ? I never looked at them in Twitter except to find a pointer to a blog or website to determine the legitimacy of individuals. FF has pointers to find blogs/twitter feeds and more. You are what you post! - Brian Sullivan

totally agree. impossible to know who is the personn subscribing to your feed by just scrawling his feeds - Ouriel Ohayon

yes, that is what we need, another profile to up date (can't wait for data portability). I always simply go check the profiles of users at Twitter, LinkedIn or their blog before subscribing. - Lou Paglia

Well, a suggestion - couldn't FF just import the short Twitter bio? It does take time checking people out first. I was/am wary of randomly connecting, check out the Twitter blacklist too and avoided a couple of people that way. What happened to Ariel could happen to any other female on here, so caveat emptor. - Sally Church

they also need a real alert system to enable the monitoring of interaction on your feed. right now i have no IDEA when someone likes something or leaves a comment. I need to check my own feed manually every now and then - Ouriel Ohayon

Definitely import the Twitter profile. I would appreciate the snapshot of who the person is without having to go dig in the feeds. - Judi Sohn

@ouriel: I second that point. I'd like to be notified when someone comments on my posted items. Not even sure that's RSS-able in here, is it? - Bryan Person

Steve I solve this problem with a FF style ; ) http://friendfeed.com/rooms... - Erhan Erdogan

I think I don't need it now. Because I know all of my friends, if I need more info, I can check their other profiles. - Eren Emre Kanal

What I would like in FF is the ability to block at the individual blog level. It would be handy for people with more than one blog (especially when some are in languages other than English or blogs are personal/business) and you are interested in following only some. - Brian Sullivan
