Bridge/Photoshop, but need to spend some time with Lightroom and will with this next upcoming release. No right or wrong answer though. I think both are as good as each other, sort of like Canon v. Nikon. I did actually try Aperture a few years back before it did vignette which was a deal killer for me at the time, now I'm just used to Adobe more than anything. - Thomas Hawk
LR because I shoot RAW and don't have a mac - The Picture Man
Lightroom. It's cross platform. Though at this point you might as well wait two months for version 2 to be released. - Eric
I bought LR about a year ago thanks to an edu license which made it half as expensive as Aperture. (No Aperture is comparable in pricing.) If you're also working on Windows from time to time, it would be a good reason to choose LR, too - Horst Gutmann
Lightroom, mainly because I don't have a Mac but also the interface is great and it facilitates a good workflow. - Bill McFarland
Capture NX (after two lightroom galleries with thousands of photos became corrupted) and Photoshop. - Cecily Walker
Bridge/Photoshop Camera Raw. I only use Photoshop proper for edits that Camera Raw wont/cant do. - Roberto Bonini
Aperture, for its iLife integration and ability to sync with my iPod, iPhone, and AppleTV, plus export plugins like FlickrExport. - Mike Cohen
Aperture...powerful, iLife integration, just gets out of the way and let's me work. I like Lightroom and have it as well, but I don't care for the modular interface. Too, Aperture's interface just feels less cluttered...cleaner. - Susan Dennis
I'll add that I went the Bridge/Photoshop route up until I'd gotten Lightroom - I've completely switched and never looked back. Having one application that can handle the complete workflow makes a huge difference, and the database/organizational features are a killer feature, IMHO. - Eric
Bridge/ACR. I tried out Lightroom at work, and went right back to Bridge/ACR. It wasn't really long enough to form an opinion, though. - Tom Harrison
aperture for quick and easy color/contrast adjusting. Photoshop for filters and major manipulations. Disclaimer: still have not tried lightroom. - David Weiner
Cecily, thats why you back it up when it nags you to do so ;) - The Picture Man
Yeah seriously. That lightroom catalog file is just as important as any of your RAW files, and I'm as anal at backing it up as I am for my photo archive. - Eric
I will buy a 3G iPhone. Most definitely. The #1 thing I do on my iPhone is participate in the Web, and having a faster one will be worth the expense. - Robert Scoble
Sorry, I won't be getting an iPhone now either. I didn't get one when they first came out and still not getting one. Maybe if someone wants to send me one to demo/test and write about I might be more inclined to consider the phone. - Paul W. Swansen
Yes unfortunately I will! But I actually might be saving $$, my AT&T plan is really high right now AND I get a 12% discount. Not sure if I'll get that when I get a new contract...I'll be going to an Apple store, not AT&T so I'm not sure they can make the same deals. - Kat
I currently have Verizon and a AT&T account. I have a Blackberry Curve as my phone right now with AT&T but I only use it for texting and email. Web surfing on the BB is not very good. I am getting the iPhone 3G to try and replace my BB for those needs as well as web surfing. The one thing I am pissed about is the text messaging is not included with the unlimited data plan so that's an extra $20 for that. Good thing I get 15% discount on my rate plan. - Andy Breeding
I took a wait and see attitude with the first release: I patiently waited a whole two days! Probably do the same this time. The link Scoble posted was about the Canadian iPhone release, though. I'd probably think about it a while if I was there. - Tom Landini
Nope not getting an iPhone. The author underestimates the power of an affordable, unlimited data plan that comes with the Instinct. Time will tell - Shey
I'll be hanging on to what I have. The iPhone didn't impress me the first time around. After what I went through with AT&T the last time, I'll never use them again. - Candace Holly
The bad thing is that I just broke my iPhone 2G bought in California (and jailbreaked) so I'll have to do something, but I don't know if I'll buy a new iPhone 3G; it's ridiculously expensive in Canada. - fbrunel
I dropped my 2g iphone a couple times and had to do the HW unlock the first time, so scratched the case a bit. I will probably end up getting the new one as I am really annoyed with the speed as well while on edge. Anyone interested in buying Ireland's 1st unlocked iPhone :) - simonpure
er, that was supposed to be, "I'm getting the cell phone hotspot (in the link)". Not to mention I get to stay on T-Mobile if I do! - Jesse Stay via twhirl
I'm considering getting an iPhone... I was 100% on-board, but Rogers' plans for it are dreadful, so I'm just a "maybe" now. Very disappointing. - Dave Fleet via twhirl
Italian plans aren't much better. Vodafone is giving 500mb x month and 900 minutes / txt messages for 99 EUROs. Don't know yet about the other carrier (TIM). :( - Simone
IPod Touch, yes. iPhone, no. I'll keep my BlackBerry for now. I had AT&T as a wireless provider once before, and I don't want to go through that again. - Harvey Simmons
best thing that ever happened to my combs was my iPhone. the faster the better :0 - Tim Aldiss
cone to think of it it's the best thing that ever happened to my 4 yr olds comms ;) - Tim Aldiss
nope... my N95 8GB still beats it in more ways than one. And, I'm lucky enough to have an "Old Blue" plan with inexpensive unlimited data on ATTWS. - thecolor
I won't even consider replacing my 1st gen iPhone until 3G is available in my area. By that time, the iPhone might be available through other vendors -- which would be a good thing for consumers. - Chris Baskind via feedalizr
Robert, you know my feelings about this one...keyboard, keyboard, keyboard. show the accessory, make it work WELL, and I'll show at&t the money. - Andrew Feinberg
Reminds me of the mantra of the Borg - Resistance is futile! Yep it is. - Roberto Bonini
I'm not getting a new iPhone because if the Gen 1 that I have works I want to save the $ boost in the actual plan if I can. - Tony
No, because I will not sign another contract with AT&T. I want my freedom from them. - Gerard Barberi via twhirl
going to party inline at the Thousand Oaks Apple store next Fri. AM. Join us! - Mark Sylvester
no I won't. And my blackberry is already ordered :-P - Marcos Marado
I've an eeePC with a mobile broadband adaptor. Works brilliantly for portable web. - David Sim
I live in Canada and I am *not* happy. Rogers is asking for a 3 yr contract and doesn't even order unilimted data for the high priced plans!!! They are taking both consumers and Apple for a royal ride eh? - Kamath via twhirl
Can't afford one. More specifically, things I want or need more keep taking priority over one. I guess it helps that I'm never more than five minutes away from an Internet-connected computer, and don't like monthly fees. - Garrett Guillotte
AT&T doesn't support 3G in my area, so I can forget it - Randy via twhirl
As soon as it works on Verizon. AT&T doesn't work in my parents house in Ohio. - Mitchell Tsai
I'm in India and it will be here probably next year for like $1000.. Forget it. - Muthu Ramadoss
I was going to until I read about Android and the barcode scanner. It may be a way off but this recession isn't going anywhere fast. And I know I can use that function everyday to search for the best deal and make whatever joint I'm in match or beat it if they want my business. Empowering. And AT&T just isn't offering a competitive plan. Plus, we have winter here and touch screens aren't charming in the winter. I can wait and will for a superior value. - Boo
Mike - agree that Facebook has more... but FriendFeed doesn't need that stuff. Photos, discussions, blogs, events, etc all are "in" FriendFeed in the sense that you can see them and then go interact with the direct source (Upcoming, Flickr, etc). I prefer the distributed model myself, since the individual apps are of higher quality. - Patrick Lightbody
And...FriendFeed doesn't need those things because FriendFeed shouldn't be trying to *be Facebook*! :) - Mike Keliher via twhirl
Facebook without the embarassing pics. Well, unless you have them in Flickr... - Mark Dykeman
Good question Steve - it's emerging as my favorite social network. And I like geeks...hmmm. - Hutch Carpenter
I'd say info-junkies or convo-junkies over geek - Marco
still having difficulties moving people over to ff but once they do... they stay. info over visual- startling to some. - Nice Fish Films
Facebook is not an information mediium, Friendfeed is, so comparing the two doesn't make any sense - Deepak
I'm surprised that when people talk about FF, they don't mention Digg should be afraid. Right now FF provides more relevant links & info than Digg does and the comments are much better too. I would much rather spend my time here than Facebook or Digg. - Otto R. Radke
@Deepak - I guess it depends on how you are defining "information" - I think you could argue that both Facebook and FriendFeed are information mediums but Facebook is a parking lot to FriendFeed's freeway (or Nascar track I suppose, depending on your perspective on noise) - Marco
Two are for the most part different vehicles, just like FF and Twitter - Charlie Anzman
I would call FriendFeed IRC for Web 2.0 - J. Phil via fftogo
Nah, its kind of like Google Reader on Steroids with Twitter for comments???? - Roberto Bonini
Marco, if the information is people's birthday's yes Facebook is information, but I only use it to communicate (almost entirely with people I know), never to find new or interesting material. Friendfeed on the other hand is all about information. - Deepak
Great insight, Steve. I've been thinking for some time that FriendFeed is the stripped-down-for-performance version of Facebook. The Facebook news feed is, for me, its most appealing feature, and FriendFeed is a turbocharged news feed. However, I like facebook too -- it puts me in touch with a different group of people than Friendfeed does. - Mitch Wagner
Oooh! Yes it is!! The valley of links, the river of comments, the gathering services, etc makes FF Our blended Facebook... - George The Writer
we always want it to be black and white but it almost never is. Deepak, you're engaged enough here to communicate with people you don't know (as am I) so it can't be 100% about the information. I agree with both you and Marco because I think you both can be right in this case. - Robert Seidman
Tough for me to say. I could never stand Facebook. - Chris Baskind
That'll be more or less true until (if & when) it get's broader based adoption at which point all the geeks will bitch about it being too mainstream ... of course that assumes they haven't already jumped ship to some other service. - Clay Newton
geeks, nurds they can feel home with friendfeed, facebook is for the masses - Dobromir Hadzhiev
I am disappointed I have never been poked on FF. - Russellreno
If we can't separate ourselves from the proles with technology then what is the point? - Andy Wibbels
Robert, of course. Primary use would be a better choice of words. Of course, that's how I use it. I still can't see how anyone would use Facebook as a primary information resource - Deepak
FB is good for entertainement. FF not. We're not poked on FF. I think they are very different. On FB you see what people write on their superwall, on FF you see what people doing on the web. And what they doing for us is much interesting than what they want to show of us. - Hubert Guillaud via Alert Thingy
Facebook is heading in the direction of FriendFeed, slowly but surely. In combining the Wall and Mini-Feed with the tabbed profile update it will be a definite clone. Increase the number of stories/comments from ten and also the amount of imports and what have you got... - Joe Dawson
That presumes that FF content is all geek related, I'm finding that it's not, but I'm also following 1000+ people from a diverse range of backgrounds - Duncan Riley
FF is for geeks who sit all day with browser tabs open - the TechCrunch 53651 - Sean Kelly
I dont understand people who are saying they are using FF as their Main News Source...I tried hard..for weeks....and realized that 90% of the stuff really hapenning in the world is no covered in FF. FF is really completely focused on geek stuff. Take FF and social network related content out...you get 90% of the content out. - PF Thaler
For further clarification, geeks come in many flavors, I'd say these are social media geeks - Jeremiah Owyang
i want to block threads with the word facebook in it! - Dieter Schwarz
Dieter behave yourself or I will exercise my rights to being an Elitist and Block you! lol - Igor The Troll
FriendFeed has it's own element of virality that Facebook can't provide - I'd consider it an additional outlet - Jesse Stay via twhirl
I think FF is a Killer Application as long as they do not force Authority! We are all bunch of crazy nuts, who like to express ourselves! ;-) - Igor The Troll
ha. friendfeed comment sections are beginning to be as funny as the reddit comment sections. hmmm...probably just all the same users. - mike via twhirl
Possibly. And other clones have come along. But with identi.ca I have *never* seen such a rush of Twitter faithful to a new clone. We. Are. Frustrated. ;-( - Barbara K. Baker
they might fall apart but its where everyone built their networks, no way to export all the friends, the conversations. you can emulate some of the more active relationships when you move to a new network but the piecemeal people get left behind. twitter is special - Paul Rj Muller via twhirl
Yes Friendster indeed ... and MySpace swept in and cleaned up the pieces, just as FriendFeed looks poised to do ... - Mark Jeffrey
BBC shows all matchs live, in HD, on the internet. Often theres more than one through the interactive TV service. Who said the BBC wasn't good enough?? - Roberto Bonini
Wimbledon is a wild ride this year! They earned their spot, so don't take that away from them. Anyone know how they did in their doubles match? - Otto R. Radke
They're in the ladies' doubles semis... Play around 8 a.m. Eastern tomorrow.... Also, it's looking like a Federer/Nadal men's final that everyone was expecting anyway... - Chris Reed
My call: Serena in 3. She's won 2, Venus 4, and I've heard hints from her about not liking that particular stat, even though she's won 8 grand slams overall to Venus' 6. It's going to come down to who wants it more despite making the other sister lose. - Dean Terry
it's not like there haven't been all-Williams finals before! - Samuel Bostock
Looking forward to seeing some of this one. Most of their past Grand Slam finals matchups haven't exactly been beautiful tennis. Let's hope we do see that tomorrow. - Bryan Person
they keep on writing them off, they keep on silencing the doubters - john conroy
All that strength, power, and beauty in one final, and I have to work on Saturday morning. *curses* - Cecily Walker
@Bryan Person: I'm not sure I would call a Williams final "beautiful" tennis; powerful surely, but there is nothing beautiful about Serena's game...Venus is graceful at times...but hardly beautiful. - Snay Trivedi
too bad they didn't also have two brothers. - Ranjit Mathoda
If they did, only Williams would win tennis events.. Wimbledon would be renamed Williamsdon. - Chris Reed
Yeah ... Venus has some grace, Serena's game is ugly. Poetry shall be observed tomorrow morning, when Federer takes the court - Deepak
Wait, what was that first step again? - Daniel Smith
I enjoy learning and that's my sole approach to using the Internet..maybe the question should be "Are you addicted to learning?" - Julian Baldwin
Of course. Isn't addiction required at this point? - Lindsay Donaghe
Yeah. But at least its not like I'm addicted to crack or meth or something. - K Welch
@k welch that's how people become addicted, they compare their own addiction to something worse.. - Julian Baldwin
yes :) It hasn't impacted my life yet. A component of my job is watching for trends on the internet. - Tony Haenn
@Tony same with me - it's integrated into my career. - Steve Rubel
@k I think I saw a psuedo-science article one time that said there is an "endorphin boost" when we access new information or are waiting for it. Hence the constant need to check email, flip through g. reader etc...So in a sense you are addicted to something just like crack or meth :) - Tony Haenn
Friendfeed doesn't mean addict in English ? - Jean-Charles
Hmm... lets see here.. Staying up until 1am catching up on news feeds and/or creating independent media content.... I think I might be. But I can quit any time! - Mike Wills
@Steve and @Tony...me too...does that make us addicted to work? - mike
I would feel like I'm cut off from the world if I didn't have *some* connection to e-mail, or Google, or whatever, but I don't think I'm addicted. There are many times (often weekends) where I barely do anything online besides check e-mail... That's why I'm not a very good blogger. :P - Cheryl Jones
"endorphin boost"? So that explains it. /me quits the internet... but will return when the DTs kick in. - DeathByNinja
Yup. But I'm ok with 7 days in the woods with no internet too. I think I'm addicted to breathing, eating, and movement. I asked an ex-girlfriend about her addiction to reading "When was the last time you went a day without reading anything?" .... "Uhhh. Can't remember." ;-) See Julian Baldwin's "addicted to learning" thread http://friendfeed.com/e/e90c58... - Mitchell Tsai
Addicted? No. Not at all. I can quit anytime I want. - Russell Holliman
To be honest, I am taking a week hiatus the end of this month. Middle of nowhere... no cell phone, no internet, no radio, no TV. I think I'll die! And catch a lot a fish while doing it. - Mike Wills
I am yes, a program I want to watch is on and I am here! - Joe Dawson
Absolutely! My wife despairs when she tells me to put the laptop away when we retire at night, and then I roll over and pick up my hiptop! :-) - Lee Hopkins
Oh, come one. Anyone who reads your confession can relate. After all, it's on FriendFeed. Does anyone other than Internet addicts even use FF? :-) - Brent Logan
The Internet.... My life...One in the same it appears to me :) - Keith Bilous
let's find a word stronger than addicted... :) - Goktug
I can survive without it for a while before dying of "noise" thirst. - Roberto Bonini
pretty much, find it tough to deal without Internet connection for more than a day, possible but feels weared, it's where I communicate mostly, it where I hear the news, where I learn something. It's vital oh ye it helps me make a living as well - Dobromir Hadzhiev
I've been away from the internet for hours at a stretch. Sometimes days. But usually, it's because I'm participating in other activities even more addictive than the internet. - Morton Fox
I'm not addicted to the Internet. It's not like I've been browsing FriendFeed constantly. I take a 30 second break every hour so nobody can say that I spent the whole hour on the Internet. :D - possible248 via NoiseRiver
I want to marry FF and have half FAIL WHALE babies.. addicted? Never. - Mona N
I guess I am if I'm upset that I missed this for the past 2 hours. ;) - Kevin C. Tofel
I'm glad that Internet keeps me away from my other addiction: reading books. You know, from reading books you get those tiny, tired eyes, your elbows are getting sore from holding up the book and at a certain moment you don't know how the hell you got to move your body because of stiffness. Well with Internet, after all those hours... Well, I feel the same, but happy. ;-) - Ton Zijp
"1. WALL-E records audio from his favorite movie, XXXXXXXXXXX, putting in onto his own digital recorder (bypassing the macrovision DRM on the tape). A COPYRIGHT CRIME UNDER C-61
2. WALL-E archives the audio, he doesn’t merely time-shift it. He listens repeatedly! A COPYRIGHT CRIME UNDER C-61
3. WALL-E shares his DRM-broken music with his friend, another robot named XXXXX. A COPYRIGHT CRIME UNDER C-61" - Benjamin Golub via Bookmarklet
I knew there was a reason I liked that little guy! - Nathan Henderson
actually, since it's hundreds of years later all of that stuff would be in the public domain :-) - mathew ingram
If history is any guide, Disney's copyrights will never expire. - Kevin Fox
+1 for Kevin. They don't call it the Mickey Mouse Protection Act for nothing. - Cyndy
Since Disney owns Wall•E and Wall•E is violating Disney's copyrights (which never expire as Kevin points out), I'm hoping Disney would end up in some sort of lawsuit infinite loop and implode, leaving Pixar to make good movies. - Scott Johnston
As long as Pixar continues to produce hits, Disney will leave Pixar alone. Even better, Pixar's influence will be felt stronger in Burbank and animation will improve there too. BOLT! this fall is the first to have Pixar's Story Method imposed upon it. Look for much better results than recent Disney animation. - John Frost
Someone censor that movie before it becomes a threat to the MPAA et al!!!! - Roberto Bonini
Wouldn't some sort of reverse Statute of Limitations apply since he doesn't do any of this until the year 2815? - Ken Sheppardson
steve, i like twitter for the fact that you CAN'T post photos. it makes it hard to follow a large amount of people on friendfeed with flickr feeds and other noise getting in the way. a simple twitpic or tinyurl to a blog or photo is all i need if i'm interested in knowing more. 140 characters is all you need. - Matt Musgrave
Mike, you're right. Friendfeed should offer the ability to block images. - Steve Rubel
I just did it. Go find an image in your FriendFeed stream. Click "Hide". Then click options for hiding more stuff like this. - Josh Bancroft
FriendFeed should allow users to block specific kinds of updates, not necessarily just photos. - David Weiner
Oh, wait. I see what you mean. You CAN hide photos if they're from Flickr (and you want to block that person's Flickr photos, or everyone's Flickr photos), but if they're part of an item they posted directly to FriendFeed, the only option is to block FriendFeed updates or not. Being able to block photos IN FriendFeed updates would indeed be cool. - Josh Bancroft
For graphic free FF you can always read your feed via http://www.fftogo.com. It works just as well on a desktop browser as a mobile phone. As for making it easier to follow a large amount of people I can't see it being any easier, frankly. If you're subscribing to hundreds of people here it'll all go speed by like a blur, anyway. I learned my lesson using the other service. - Jim Stanger
Heh. Funny conversation considering this started as a comment about the most effective way to boycott twitter. My vote? don't use it on an important day for geeks (release of new iPhone) instead of don't use it on a holiday when we should all be unplugged anyway. - Leah
leah, tweeps boycotting on iphone launch day?! never gonna happen. we'll all be using twitter to brag to those who don't have one! - Matt Musgrave
I found a way to do this. Right click on an image in FF and you can block it. - Steve Rubel
@Steve Rubel You sure? I can't get it to work. - Roberto Bonini
We should welcome images. Blogging / microblogging have been text centric. Blocking images here reminds me of when people used to turn off images in browsers in the dark ages. Sometimes it's better to show than tell. - Dean Terry
i'm with Dean on this one, I like the images, some of my favourite things on FF have been flickr images, or Youtube videos.... - Iain Baker
Everyone can customize what they see in FF because you can hide content types / services that you don't want to see. Personally I like photos because they tell much more in just few seconds without need to read text. - Daniel Schildt
Great... What will Viacom do? Pull those guys' eyeballs from their sockets? I think we should sue the company that will be hired to do the data-mining, for working with privacy-threatening douches. - Rodrigo Jaroszewski
I'm assuming Americans will make a lot of noise about this? That's the only logical response? - melmcbride
Maybe Viacom plans to emulate Jay and Silent Bob and will visit each offending user to point out the error of their piracy ways? - KerryG
Why is Google even keeping that sort of data longer than say 90 days? - John Frost
It's a worry how far behind the legal profession is. - Craig Thomler
This whole YouTube Viacom debacle is going to be very interesting to watch as Google produces documents to lawyers. And people thought the internet was "private" ha! - Susan Beebe
Upon further reflection, I agree with Danny S. We need an Internet Privacy law now - http://is.gd/L7f - John Frost
I wonder what Viacom will do with international IP addresses? e.g. EU one's? what about Iranian or North Korean one's? how about to go to court for suing Americans and not suing others, meaning that current management isn't effective enough executing company strategy? - silpol
@Susan Beebe - The intenet has never been private. Every piece of content we produce, every comment we write ends up in googles cache and search index. So there is a huge amount of information avaliable about our online precence that goes back years. - Roberto Bonini
"I say this with the utmost respect, but Judge Stanton is a moron. And Google simply cannot hand this data over without facing a class action lawsuit of staggering proportions." I'm speechless. And he is a moron. - Roberto Bonini
This is what happens when the court trys to rule on something they don't understand, bad decisions are made - Kim Landwehr
oh the thread is here. :)- thats judege is an idiot , how can he say “" privacy concerns are merely “speculative.”- when full IP/userID./Video watched are being handed over .. this data is really private . This adds to the problem ok what will viacom do, if the users is in JP / China ? Can they now force the JP /CN gov to hand over a person for justice in the US ? Its stupid - Peter Dawson
On top of that this sets a precedent IN THE US OF A not China etc. This shows that Viacom et al have still not got it!! They gonna have to learn the hard way like the music business. - Roberto Bonini
Ah well. This kind of arrogance can only lead to a quicker collapse for old media like Viacom. - Alexander Carlill
I'm of two minds about this. I firmly support the first amendment rights of people who only watched videos. But people who upload copyrighted materials under a their own usernames don't have an expectation of privacy. Indeed, the safe harbor in the DMCA pretty much invites content owners to sue the user rather than the host. It would be a hollow law if you couldn't obtain an infringing user's information that was voluntarily submitted to the site. - mrshl
Clearly, the order is too broad. But making some user names available (e.g., those who uploaded viacom-owned materials) doesn't seem like a privacy violation. - mrshl
Best line ever in TechCrunch history: "I say this with the utmost respect, but Judge Stanton is a moron." - Michael Chin
LOL @ moron statement - that's a classic! - Susan Beebe
I'm enjoying seesmic, but one of the fun ways to engage is just to jump in on people's questions, conversations, etc. Don't worry about always having to talk about the next compelling online app or how your idea will change the way we think about social media. You can always do that. ;) Sometimes it's good to just have a regular ole 'get to know you' convo. - Sonciary Honnoll
And on a more serious note, some practical uses of FriendFeed by corporations. - Bryan Person
What you blog about: blogging, pr, changing attitudes to social networking. Get together with Scoble and Shel Isreal on WorkFast.Tv as they do some of this stuff already. - Roberto Bonini
I course if you did seesmic about an idea that will change the way we think about social media, I'd definitely listen. :) - Sonciary Honnoll
Most people wait and watch a while until they feel like they have something relevant, if not monumental to say. While you can do this, it's better treated like a video conversation. That said I'd like to see you start / participate in a conversation on issues surrounding attention. - Dean Terry
Steve, why don't you post a Seesmic video asking that same question? You're bound to get some good suggestions. - Larry Kless
Seesmic is fun. Just start commenting on other people at first and then start a topic of the day. Can be about anything - you'll see! - Rachel Rubin
I'd like to see you interview some of the people you talk to regularly - the people you consider smart. I'd also like to see some videos/screencasts where you flesh out some of the productivity stuff you used to do more frequently. - Todd Mundt
@Larry Kless That got me thinking. Wish seesmic had 'rooms' like FF where we could chat about this and the community lifecycle. My latest project, BizUnite, just launched and we're in the beginning stages of community building. - Sonciary Honnoll
Yeah seesmic looks exciting. tell me about how we can use friendfeed for our clients! - Mike
I signed up for Plurk and never returned. FriendFeed is everything I would hope for out of an excellent social network provided the alternatives. - Julian Baldwin
it's not a one solution for everyone world.... this is just good for everyone - Stefan Hayden
Like Julian, I'm the same way. Signed up for Plurk, but haven't returned. But if Twitter keeps sucking the fail whale wind, I'll probably end up there too. - adam christensen
I don't get it. I really don't like Plurk and I really love Friendfeed. Why oh why doesn't everyone think just like me? - Jack Baty
Think I plurked for one night...and then went back to FF waiting for Twitter to come back up. - matt ceniceros
@alan that's why you see the decline in unique visitors, everyone had to check it out to learn that it's nothing special and let's face it, the reason we don't see FF hit those numbers is because of the nature of the service..it's easier to check plurk out than it is FF (people are scared of this much content) - Julian Baldwin
@Julian Baldwin: a barrier
to entry, you mean. In any case you need to be a content producer on FF - Roberto Bonini
