Facebook's Purchase Is Bid to Own Social Media - washingtonpost.com
"Facebook's purchase of FriendFeed, an obscure social-media platform, is potentially momentous. To understand why, we must understand FriendFeed, a start-up that is ubiquitous among techies and unknown to everybody else. It's a sleek application that acts as a clearinghouse for all of your social-media activities." - Louis Gray from Bookmarklet
Excellent and perceptive article and a no brainer purchase by Facebook.One only wonders why it took them so long - Michael Q Todd
Washington Post, who you callin' obscure? ;-) - Laura Norvig
Indeed, "obscure" has suspect or somewhat negative connotations! Guess the Post is still catching up ... - Bo Stern
You tell 'em, Laura. - Auntie Buttinsky Botts

Michael, it took so long because friendfeed didn't want to be bought. i'm sure it was a tough decision, but they did eventually decided to sell and let's hope it was all for the better - Chris Heath
facebook and friendfeed together are a game changer. I'm surprised more people don't seem to understand why - Helen M Overland

Wow - I would say Apple has you locked down pretty good. Pretty high transition cost if you want to go somewhere else. :) - Mike Bracco
I like to get a report on my app usage. That byline RSS reader looks cool. Any other GReader apps come close? - Andrew Smith
@Andrew Byline rocks. Waiting for Netnewswire to upgrade though. - Steve Rubel
Looks like you don't have the new BNO New App....a recent fav of mine - http://itunes.apple.com/WebObje... - Mike Bracco
I'm hoping you downloaded all those on wifi. ;) - Helen M Overland
@MIke it's on my list - these are like baseball cards; need it, got it, need it! - Steve Rubel from email

Re: Microsoft’s Bing Falsifies Site Data to Increase Click Through Rates - http://searchenginejournal.disqus.com/microso...
"It could just be an honest, but somewhat misguided, attempt to be helpful. When I search for my name on Google, one of the top results is for the company I work for, even though my name does not appear on the page. That's been happening for a while. This looks like the same idea, just one step further. Is this a good strategy for helping people? It depends on whether the page title is accurate or not I guess. If I were not an SEO and I clicked on a page that said "meat ball sandwich" that didn't have the content I wanted, I'd be annoyed with the SITE, not the search engine." - Helen M Overland
