I just updated the URL above to include explanations of it, look for it at the end of the page. - Wil

BTW entries that are hidden in FF will not be sent to you. So, if you're finding a lot of noise (maybe you're following loads of people), it may be time to update your FF noise filter. - Wil

Giving it a test now. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg

I'm going offline soon. If you find any issues with the bot, you may try silencing it by saying "/noise off". Please send any comments my way, thanks! - Wil

So far so good Wil...I like it - Trent Olson

2 suggestions: 1) is it possible to include a command that will list the last X number of posts in your feed? Already I've lost track of what post_id this feed is, so I had to go back to the web to comment on it. 2) I don't suppose there's a way to make a hide command? If I remember, that's not in the ff api yet. - Trent Olson

1) Yes, I do plan to add that. 2) You're right, no "hide" support in the API - Wil

Hmm I get a "Encountered unknown error" when try to authorize.. And now a "Unabel to contact FriendFeed". - Leandro Ardissone ⍨

This is very cool. Logged into gtalk and got bombarded. Wonder if this is close to what Scoble and Gillmor are looking for. - Mark Trapp

Uh oh. Here we go. - Bwana ☠

@Mark that's only for noise level 1 ;-) Seriously, though, i'm sorry for turning this on without notice, i thought the default noise level will not generate much traffic. What I forgot to take into account is that the people using the bot are also the most active FF users. - Wil

/noise always says "Noise level has been set to "None"" no matter what level I use. - Jason Wehmhoener

@Jason - somehow the bot was not subscribed to your status, so it couldn't do its job. If you just send a message to it now, it should request to add you, and depending on your client you may or may not have to authorize it. Once that's done, it should work. Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for the bug report!! - Wil

I think the default should be noise level 0 to be honest. It keeps resetting back to 1 and annoying me! - Phil G

It resets because I restarted the bot. I just did it again, this time following your advice to make it level 0 by default. So, for those who actually do want the noise, please do a "/noise up" to turn it back on. - Wil

Yay! I needed to do a /who to get the bot to add me to its contact list and now I am happy getting /noise 2. So cool. :-) - Jason Wehmhoener

Glad it's working out for you :) - MojiPage

@Louis - LOL... - Susan Beebe

@ Louis LOL +1, I also think calling conversations micro memes is against the rules. I wonder if there is a secret hazing ritual at Forrester where they force you take simple concepts and make them complex because it winds up selling more reports. - Robert Seidman

example: "Louis, wanna talk about the A's vs. Giants" becomes "let's have a micro meme about A's/Giants". Crazy. - Robert Seidman

Oh Louis, if it's great in my mind, that it's great to me. Either way, you can decide if it's great for you. ;) - Jeremiah Owyang

Robert, I'm not sure you even understand the definition, hang tight buddy, it'll be explained. Confused why are you taking shots at my job, it's Sunday!!! My blog is free, quite different than reports. I blog because I want to, I could stop blogging and make the same paycheck. Take it easy ok? Sheesh it's Sunday! :) - Jeremiah Owyang

Robert, Jeremiah's on to something with the concept of micromemes, if it's to describe them as "a unit of cultural transmission, or a unit of imitation" but specific to a closed social group or rather contextually relevant to that group, but not others (http://is.gd/pg6). If he is going to highlight the ability of aggregated social conversations (looking to avoid the overused phrase media) to illuminate important or relevant matters for a group, that's useful and accurate. - Marc Vermut

@jowyang looking forwrd to it! - MojiPage

Jeremiah, I know your blog is free, and I also know you love this stuff as an enthusiast and would (and did) even if you weren't working for Forrester. I don't generally like buzzwords for simple concepts like "here's a group of people talking about last night's Dodger's game" Still in the future I'll wait to read before before busting your chops, and if still so compelled only do so Mon-Fri : ) - Robert Seidman

Care to point the big difference between Micromemes and Social Objects? - Armando Alves

Robert, Louis, Marc, Moji the post is live. I'll admit it's a very hard concept to describe. PLEASE note that a "micromeme" isn't just a conversation, it's a software tool that tells you what the MOST important thing is from your friends. More advanced than a chat room, or a feedreader, http://www.web-strategist.com/blog... - Jeremiah Owyang

Ouch! - Susan Beebe

make mine like that too please http://www.plurk.com/user... - sean percival

This is why gmail created labels and filters :) - directeur

time for another gmail filter/label eh Loic? :) we need dataportability to prevent this from happening when every new socnet launches. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg

sorry about that... guilty - Katherine Druckman

So you're the reason Plurk went down! - Jesse Stay

must...stop....laughing.... particularly given that this will be my inbox in the morning as well, dealing with them as they come in at the moment. - Duncan Riley

Il te faut au moins une adresse par service utilisé donc... :D - Sébastien

Wow! - Mitchell Tsai

ah, oui! - Adri Munier

I blame Duncan. That guy doesn't get enough blame, so it's time we start spreading it around. :-) - Louis Gray

oh my... i am 5th from the bottom at 6:54, and now i feel bad for spamming :( - Geri Druckman

I have the same troubles. I hate new social networks. Sigh. - Robert Scoble

You guys why don't you read manuals? :) - directeur

Robert, you do not. You love new social networks. That's like Garfield saying he hates lasagna. - Louis Gray

Bring on dataportability. This is madness! - Charlie

I don't love having to click on everyone to add them as my friend. Especially when I've told 19 other services you are already my friend. Sigh. - Robert Scoble

@Louis - LOL ... Scoble he's right! that's what makes it so darn funny!!! :-) - Susan Beebe

I am so not botheruing with Plurk - Soulhuntre from twhirl

yeah, i think i'll steer clear of plurk. too many social networks already and only about 3 of them are cool...via feedalizr - C. K. Sample III

cant you turn the notices off - Anthony

+1 Charlie - directeur

OMG! Remember me to care about "Internet pollution".... - Dieter Schwarz

honestly, I think this is actually quite fun! - Loic Le Meur

Loic: But then -and Scoble guy will hate me for saying this- you'll have to... FILTER! :) - directeur

LoL that's super quick! - MojiPage

Laetitia: it's called "Look ma' I'm popula !!" ;-) - directeur

The joys of popularity! - Joe Dawson

LOL don't they have a setttings to disable email notification? that would be nice - Tyler Gillies

163 tickets to LeWeb were sold mostly using Friendfeed and Twitter at the very early below our cost price for friends. This is an amazing story allowing us to cover the room and all the costs to prepare the conference, without any marketing, just with our friends who trust LeWeb Geraldine and myself to put together something cool. Check the list of who is coming on the attached link.... more... - Loic Le Meur

weird behaviors with long texts on Friendfeed which I had never tried. When Friendfeed tries to replace a blog post :) - Loic Le Meur

That's what I love about it - you never have to blog about a link again. All new news gets blogged, and all opinions on news go to FriendFeed. - Jesse Stay

Loic, you need to help me pitch my editors on send me to Le Web, if anything to get my French back up to par. ;-) - Andrew Feinberg

Andrew, let me know how I can help you! - Loic Le Meur

amazing .. wish you had nonprofit scholarships - Beth Kanter

Loic, sent you a D on twitter...if I can get into the show comp'd and find cheap lodging I can probably pitch multiple angles to them. do you have some kind of speaker list yet? - Andrew Feinberg

we are trying to be the first ones to make $1 million in revenue on Twitter and Friendfeed :) - Loic Le Meur from twhirl

I'm glad -someone- has a business model here! ;-) - Andrew Feinberg

Andrew, no speaker list yet, we're on it and don't want to make it too early to make sure we capture the last trends. This makes me think I should invite Paul and Bret the Friendfeed founders for sure - Loic Le Meur from twhirl

Loic - good call. I'll take the conversation private on this though. Definitely interested in EU perspectives on new media and especially regulation. Actually, how would you feel about a panel on US vs EU media and Internet regulation? - Andrew Feinberg

Fantastic results using FF and twitter ... cool!! Congrats to you an the entire team!! wish I could go!!!!! - Susan Beebe

Wow. That's just amazing! - Daynah

wish i could go - MojiPage

I'm confused, where do I register. The link doesn't seem to have a checkout for tickets - Ben Metcalfe

that's why Twitter may just succeed - I doubt many services are ready to compete with Twitter on an architectural level. By the time they are, so will Twitter. - Jesse Stay

if you want to be the next twitter, just wait for SXSW next year, but still probly wont happen for you lol, the fail whale is hungry - Anthony

Yeah, I fill cheated. Where's the picture of headless birds lifting a whale torso out of the water? :-) In all seriousness, twisted images aside, I don't see what unique offerings Plurk brings to the table. - Joanmarie

tough crowd. - Eric Schlissel from twhirl

I'm sure the plunk engineers were thrilled when leo sent out a mass invite and 9:30 am on sunday morning. They were probably doubly thrilled when scoble showed up. I bet their job sucked today. - Doug Brooks

so far so lame - adolfo foronda

Doug, what do you mean? All new startup engineers should be ready for a mass invite by Leo, shouldn't they? ;-) - Jesse Stay

they fell to the scoble and leo effect - Charles Rice from twhirl

I tried it just now and deleted my account soon afterward due to the name restrictions (had to be at least two words, it appeared). But it wasn't down. - Voyagerfan5761

they weren't expecting all the attention, it's your fault... again... : http://blog.plurk.com/ - David Petar Novakovic from twhirl

There's two million people on Twitter. Only about 90 have added me as friends on Plurk so far. Fail. - Robert Scoble

down for me also from their blog: "You can rest easy knowing that every facet of Plurk is built with scaling in mind from day one" - fbrunel

i just looked at plurk, and it scares me. what's going on in there?! - Craig Childs

Why have I ALWAYS to be right when everyone believes at first the other thing? :) Am I a genius? - directeur

Try FAIL fish ... blowing hard but can't blow enough bubbles!! LOL - Susan Beebe

Humor is another :) - directeur

jesse, easier said than done.. just saying I'm glad that wasn't my sunday :) imagine waking up to that ehhe. I find the whole thing quite hilarious. - Doug Brooks

it won't stay up long enough for me to add you robert - marty nickel from twhirl

yep...it's borked up and that fish is blowing so hard it's head's gonna pop off like that bone-head dog! LOL ...lameO - Susan Beebe

if you want to be the next twitter all you have to do is stay up. that's pretty much it. someone famous once said 90% of anything is showing up - well maybe 90% of web app success is staying up. - Morgan

Doug, oh yeah, I understand, and I feel for them. I remember waking up to hear our site was on the front page of MSN at one startup I was at several years ago. Those days were horrible days! And I was the only guy that could fix it! - Jesse Stay

as a side note i put that poor logo's head back on :) http://friendfeed.com/e... - Doug Brooks

It was only a matter of time, seriously. - Mack D. Male

pretty clone, but running into scalability issue way too early - MojiPage

it's still up for me .. maybe I missed it - John Blanton from twhirl

You and Leo Laporte should sell your service as a "scalability audit" :) - Katherine Druckman

Plurk is written in Python, is it time to pick on Python not scaling? - Bob Ngu from twhirl

How do Python and the other technologies today scale? I've heard many Ruby on Rails complaints. How about others? - Mitchell Tsai

Shame! Python not scaling? You sure are kidding Bob? :) - directeur

directeur, I am being facetious LOL. I know that Google is largely written in Python, so yeah it scales but even that is a silly thing to say because a language is but one small piece of the overall architecture. Likewise, people need to stop blaming Ruby on Rails for Twitter's downtime, even Twitter has came out and said as much recently. - Bob Ngu

Bob, you're very right, but I won't compare Python to Ruby ;-) - directeur
