twitter is like a news filter if you have the right distributors included. I do use the reader in parallel because of some informations missing. What about a twitter integration in the google reader - something that indicates that a message has been twitted by whom and how many times and a aggregated view in the reader of the twitted news? Would be a nice reverse service to twitter and could potentially show up new twitter contacts with similar interests. Somebody realized in a "stable version" with greasemonkey? - 210cm
Hmm. Twitter integrated in Google Reader? Would this really deliver something better than FriendFeed already does? - Matthias Schwenk
@Matthias: it could be just another entry point and "perspective" on twitter mentions on RSS feed items. It makes a difference for me if i use Twitter / friendfeed as a news source that represents a human filter on news or I use the whole universe of news (depending which RSS feeds i have configured in the Google reader). Both entry points have advantages and disadvantages, but i like the idea of cross-convergence so I would also like to see the cross link to Twitter or Friendfeed in the Google reader. - 210cm
As a quick workaround, I subscribe to my Twitter in Google Reader. So tweets from people I follow show up in Google Reader searches. - Martin Recke
Friendfeed has too much noise compared to Google Reader. - Ansgar Wollnik
Different picture here. I have 1.200 feeds in Google Reader, follow 661 people on Twitter and subscribe to 172 people in Friendfeed. So Friendfeed is calm compared to both Twitter and Google Reader. - Martin Recke
so you prefer headlines over full articles, right? ;) - marcel weiss
add feedly for full web 2.0 happiness! ;) - Dieter Schwarz
And Scoble is moving back to Greader cause there is more diversity there ;) #friendfeed #googlereader - oliver gassner
Swurl (http://chronistin.swurl.com/) looks nice, but I miss generic feeds. Still waiting for my beta resp. alpha invitation for the others. anybody got a code for me so I can get all hyperactive, too? ;) - Chronistin
This is getting definitively too much social web activity for me. Time to think about my real life. :-) Will stick onto Friendfeed and forget about lifestream.fm and swurl.com. - Ansgar Wollnik
