yeah, just noticed. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

i take it to mean most people use best of day, rather than week and month, which takes an extra click to get to - MG Siegler

i know that is true of me - MG Siegler

Most likely. I tend to use the Week function so I can get ideas on Fridays for a decent weekend editorial. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

Wicked and just checked and for me the best of the day is an image I uploaded ha! - Joe Dawson

but where is the link for chronological order of items? - Vishy

I wish friendfeed had some sort of analytics to see how many people view your feed and what links they click on the most - Kyle Weller

indeed - Dobromir Hadzhiev

nice little tweak i would say - (jeff)isageek

cool! - Susan Beebe

i think this is awesome too but it's pretty sad that we're getting so damn excited over it..lets face it :) - Zee.

This would open it up to other options... hmmm... 'Best of Day with Search Term'? - Johnny Worthington

i like! - Sarah Perez

Seems retrogressive to me -- why do I need two clicks (and in a somewhat illogical order) to get to best of week, month when I only needed one before? - Brian Sullivan

Yes I likey... - Clay Newton

Brian: when you were in Best of view, there was no cue to get back to the standard view, or that you were in a special view. This now has that cue. The space of the standard view cue had to be made up somehow, and I'm sure they have statistics to show that best of day view is the most used best of view. - Mark Trapp

Mark: --when in standard view there is no way to know how to get to best of week or month (whereas before that was easy). I am sure you are right that the best of day is the most used but still seems retrogressive - Brian Sullivan

Brian: with best of month, they completely removed it during the first beta of the new design, which leads me to believe that either a) people really don't use it or b) they really don't want people to use it. In either case, it wouldn't be a loss for people to not find best of month immediately. With the best of week, there may be statistics to show that it's used very rarely or something like that. - Mark Trapp

Brian, as a user who basically never used this feature, it seems like a nice uncluttering compromise to not show all "best of" options in the beginning. Just a "View best of" link might work too, with the other links only appearing once you clicked it... - Philipp Lenssen

Now i know why this changes - to make room for real-time! - MG Siegler

This, much like aluminum bats and steroids, is a game changer. - Jay Cuthrell
