No Flash support on the iPhone means no awesome Godfather excerpts :-( - Mark Trapp

Works for me. Thomas, the reason it doesn't work on the iPhone is that the player is Flash, and of course, Flash doesn't work on the iPhone. - Josh Bancroft

Awesome Dave and great pick too! ;-) - Da-Chief

audio is very cool.. would be nice to be able to listen to favorited songs - Travis Parsons

The podcast connect betw NewsJunk and FriendFeed is complete, just published the Gnip interview through the API and it came through as an audio enclosure. Here's a screen shot. http://images.scripting.com/archive... - Dave Winer

Ah, I see it now on the web. Good point about it not working on the iPhone due to flash. - Thomas Hawk

I believe in America. Perfect first words for first audio post. - David Newman

Works! - Brian

hm. FF + audio = friendcast? - Frank Jurden

Worked for me in Safari, didn't with Firefox 3 on the mac (the graphic just disappeared) - Paul Haahr

Nothing of an mp3 visible on my iPod Touch - Robert van Bregt

Works fine with Firefox 3 on a PC with WinXP SP3. - Jeff P. Henderson

I'm on Firefox3 on a Mac, and it's working here. Very cool. - Phil Crissman

Nice one Dave. Working on my Mac in both Safari 3.1.1 and Firefox 3. - Larry Kless

Works fine on Safari on OS X Leopard - Paul Denlinger

Workin' good on Firefox3 on Vista - James O'Malley

Dave, you are the best! This is terrific on XP Pro in IE7, nice UI, good navigation. I'm sure we'll all have Mike Arrington's voice chatting with us soon <vbg>. - Bill Claxton

Awesome! - americanm

Working good on Safari here. If this player can be included in the AIR clients like twhirl, I'd be all set! - Dave Senior

friendfeed should provide a link to the mp3 file then. That would work on the iPhone. - Josue Salazar

I'm having issues with flash player 9.x on FF 3.01 - Ricardo Rabago

It works in IE 7.0 with flash player 9.x - Ricardo Rabago

Funny we haven't seen more podcasts showing up in FF as a result of this feature. Should I start a podcast feed just for FF? - Dave Winer

Since you mentioned it I'll put a quick plug in. CS Techcast is pumped into Friendfeed via our RSS. Check it out. - Eric - seven eleven

Love the clip :) (FireFox 3 - works perfectly) - George Smith

Dave, check this room out: http://friendfeed.com/rooms... - Kevin C. Tofel

Buffering forever, even after the load indicator is all the way across, but I've been having Flash problems since Firefox 2.x (now using 3.0 on XP)--never have been able to properly diagnose. :( - Steve Lowe

No issues with playback here. Wish it did a countdown of remaining length, though. - Tim Cooper

Closed and restarted: now it works--didn't change any other settings. Happens like that all the time. Weird. - Steve Lowe

Works fine for me on Firefox 3 + Flash 9 on WinXP. Bada-bing! - Zulkarnain K.

Once I click play, there seems to be no way to stop or pause the audio (other than turn the volume down)..otherwise it works great - Peter Cattell

Ok Friend Feed users, do you think Ahab Robert Scoble the Whale hunter should unblock the Cyber Bully Aaron Brazell? - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

Robert's unblocked Aaron already... - Mitchell Tsai

Igor, word of advice: Pick your news and share items more carefully. - Ben Parr

Ben, just reporting how I see it. - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

Mitchell thanks for letting us know! I wonder why Scoble blocked Aaron in the first place? - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

As a community we should care how members treat each other! Or are we going to shit all over each other? - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

On a sidenote, I'm a huge Seesmic fan : ) - Mona Nomura

Mona when you going to do a Seesmic video! Want to see you Nerdness on Small Screen! ;-) - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

Igor, that's kinda creepy. - Mona Nomura

David, blocking someone is no problem at all and everybody has a right to block whomever they wish! I do not recommend blocking people because you will incite negative feeling from the person you block. Not always depend on situation and reason. But best to leave a transparent life and know what your enemies are saying about you or your brand. - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

It's the internet... there is no such thing as 'enemies'.... =\ - Mona Nomura

Now the problem that we are facing here is called Black Hat Social Media Optimization! I am sure you heard of Black Hat SEO so now it is Black Hat SMO. Wehn someone blocks you and makes a public thread out of it and says bad things about you making a community think you are a bad person. This post thread is also indexed by Google and when searching for your nic the negative thread will come up in search results. - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

Mona I have been in SEO business for years and know many high level SEO people like Rand Fishkin from SEOmoz, Danny Sullivan from Search Engine Land, DaveN from davidnaylor.uk and others. These people invented Black Hat SEO first used by people to trick Google into indexing their and their client sites. - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

As many Internet businesses became competitive they started to resort negative brand marketing! So let's say you are Sony and you want to take away business from Casio, you make a negative ad campaign against Casio. Or X-Box vs Play Station!!! - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

Now enters Social Media! Let's say one bloggers criticizes a online company, that company hires a PR management firm to attack and discredit that blogger using Social Media networks. - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

Some PR firms who resorted to this type of Guerrilla Warfare Marketing are Amanda Chapel, Loren Feldman from 1938media, Aaron Brazell from technosailor. You can check their history in Google and you will find them all attacking other bloggers on multiple times. These people are guns per hire! They represent a number of different clients at different times. I do not want to be naming their clients and who they have attacked, but if you interested in investigating, google is your friend. - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

Now at times it is difficult to see what they are doing because they are very clever operators and play tag team not to show their true intentions. - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

So now the question is what does a blogger do if attacked by this savvy Social Media Guerrilla operator? How about if they attack a small Internet business like Pownce microbloging because they want to put it out of business? - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

I'm just here to excahnge information, not delve into 2.0 politics.... =| - Mona Nomura

It is cheating: With advanced technology, having sex with a robot hooker is too much like really cheating. For all intents and purposes, you're having sex with another woman. Plus, what if you want to buy your own robot hooker and keep her in the closet at home? It's a thin line between robot hooker and robot girlfriend. - Russellreno

Is having sex with a robot gigolo cheating? - SciFi Ranter Girl

good question. probably not. - Josue Salazar

No different than a dildo, unless the robot is sentient. - mentaleffluvia

:-) - Mitchell Tsai

no. - Duncan Riley

Reminds me of the anime Chobits. - Oliver Ortega Chua

I see a movie developing here... - Justin Korn

It is cheating, not because of the realism of the robot, but because of your intentions. - Morton Fox

Morton, what intentions? Is masturbation cheating? - mentaleffluvia

um... do men not care WHAT they have sex with? If the sex is BECAUSE it is a robot hooker then that is a kink yeah? I say no, not cheating, inanimate objects should not be an emotional threat. - Allison

Chris B - Check with your mechanic. You'll be surprised. - Russellreno

Until you can leave your SO to have a emotional relationship with said robot, no. - Dana Franks from twhirl

depends on how long it lasts. I'd like to see that one CHEATERS! - Eric Truman

Only if you get caught. - Jonathon

I think the robot would have to pass the Turing Sex Test before it could be considered cheating. To pass the Turing Sex Test a reasonable person wouldn't be able to tell if they were having sex with a machine or with a human. Of course, what if, at some point robots surpass humans in satisfying sexual desires? - iTad

Only if you didn't get the one I told you to get... - PonziPirillo

Matt: you must have not gotten the memo. FriendFeed's founders are two guys who designed Gmail and Google Maps. The designer designed Google Reader, Gmail, and other things at Google. Does Google go down? Even under extreme loads? Enough said. - Robert Scoble

Hi Robert, I created my FriendFeed account. visit my site http://grou.ps/obesity - Obesity Help

Matt, Friendfeed does also syndicate out to IM or SMS either so the load is quite smaller. - Ralph Whitbeck

hmmm...scheduled maintenance 6pm on day before July 4th...feels like road construction crew on highway on Sat night - Pokai

oh geeze - Cee Bee

yah yah yah - what else is new - greetings from Milan (that's Milan Italy. not Milan Scoble) - Marc Canter

No seriously, this is unfreakinbelievable! The level of downtime is nearing historic proportions! - Mario Sundar

this has to be peak usage time, why do they not wait until the middle of the night, there has to be a lower usage point that is more opportune for the upgrade - Lou Paglia

Truly remarkable. - John McCrea

I expect many more FriendFeed users and many more identi.ca notices... those have been fast and furious this week too. - Lucretia Pruitt

the fact that they scheduled it during this time is just amazing to me.. WTF were they thinking? - Mark Williamson from twhirl

is that what they call down time now :-) - Duncan Riley

This is obviously not scheduled maintenance. As Lou said you don't schedule maintenance during peak usage hours. I don't think any of their "Scheduled Maintenance" is really that. - Michael Tefft

Michael - I saw a note on my homepage saying they had scheduled the down time for 6pm today... so this was scheduled - Mark Williamson from twhirl

The Twitter Out-of-Service message I just saw says they are preparing for the holiday (like is traffic expected to go up or go down you think?) - Dennis E. Hamilton

People who do this should be banned from the social networking sites they do this on. - Brandon LeBlanc from twhirl

hmmm... it took me 6 months to get my name on twitter. I wonder how responsive identi.ca can be?! - Shivanand Velmurugan

Maybe they were reserving it for you, Robert. :-p - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

be careful, they might have a goatee and be the "evil mirror universe" scoble. - Andrew Feinberg

@Brandon hmmm... they haven't done it for DNS, I doubt if they would for scoial networks. solution: openid! - Shivanand Velmurugan

I grabbed kregger, but ugh what is the point of identi.ca beyond a twitter clone? - Craig Eddy

eg. there is someone on friendfeed called shiva, and I'm shiva too. Who is more authentic?! Mebbe the system should reward one who is more active?! I say that coz I'm usually the more active "shiva" is web2.0 :) - Shivanand Velmurugan

Shiva...maybe we all need GUIDs? - Craig Eddy

++ for GUIDs! That would be extra dorky - "You can find me all over the net as 76280920-48a2-11dd-ae16-0800200c9a66!!" - iTad

Craig: isn't that akin to openid?! essentially they maintain a guid (it is just in the form of a url). - Shivanand Velmurugan

This is PLURK crap all over again...LAME-O... where's data portability and OpenID protections? we use GUIDs for apps at my office (website apps), but using for people sounds cool, but it's too easy to replicate if you have a copy. But if secure, forget it...awesome ID protection - Susan Beebe

Just thinking aloud here, but... is http://ca.ca taken? - Ⓒⓗⓡⓘⓢ Ⓟⓘⓡⓘⓛⓛⓞ

nice one Chris!! heheehe! - Susan Beebe

It sucks to be so popular with the trolls, eh? - Steven E. Streight

you clearly need to be faster registering at these new sites! - headsling

l0ckergn0me, that reminds me of a few years ago when I discovered you CAN'T register http://org.ca , it is apparently on a list of restricted domain names - that's the response from a whois query, anyway. - Micah from twhirl

I found this kinda funny.... It's commented out, but still. From the Laconica config sample: #$config['nickname']['blacklist'][] = 'scobleizer'; http://is.gd/KYT - donato from twhirl

Jim Norris on FriendFeed: - scorpio from Alert Thingy

what do you mean "your" account? any trademarks on the word "scobleizer"? - Gowri from twhirl

I'm not sure "like" was right here, I wanted to vote "sad", or "pathetic", or "yet another let's claim popular domains scam", but FF doesn't provide me those options. I say we spam the hell out of such people ;-) - Alexander van Elsas

@Donato yes... indeed very funny - Gustavo Munoz from twhirl

yes, Robert has a trademark on the term "Scobleizer" so folks cannot squat it legally...they just do it to annoy the poor man! - Susan Beebe

Robert, it seem people are trying to get some new service before u and register ur handle....its seem they are try to make mischief!!! - Arjun

Robert: It's open, just start your own. You have a big enough following to triumph identi.ca. It could be scobleize.us :) - Justin Korn

Happened to me with Pownce. That's the problem with signing up for a new account that's not somehow tied to YOU or your identity. - Ⓒⓗⓡⓘⓢ Ⓟⓘⓡⓘⓛⓛⓞ

No one had registered spuds so I have it. Yipee! Good luck with getting scobleizer back - Michael McGimpsey from twhirl

go early web2.0 with scobleizr - George Lee from twhirl

So its a weak twitter clone in, if I get this right, PHP. Honestly Robert, with these things springing up all over it's simply not goign to be possible for you to get to them all first. - Soulhuntre from twhirl

If I was launching something like this, I'd reserve Scoble's account when I started it, just so he could moan about it in public - free publicity! :) - Martin Bryant

I fight it out with a guy in Germany for the username Tobstar until i started using my real name. - Toby Graham

Rutger I m ight be arrogant, but it's my freaking name/trademark and I will defend that. - Robert Scoble

Funny, the owner of identi.ca wrote me back and said he doesn't have a policy for how to handle these things. Amateur hour. - Robert Scoble

Gee, I think the owner of Identi.ca is clueless then... how can you launch a twitter competitor product and not foresee this issue to crop up?! Doh! lame-O dude - Susan Beebe

lol... get ready to double your Twitter output - Outsanity

Actually, I'll stop posting my tweets here when ping.fm gets support for FriendFeed - surprised that hasn't happened yet. - Ⓒⓗⓡⓘⓢ Ⓟⓘⓡⓘⓛⓛⓞ

Thought it seemed odd for Dave to be channeling Steve Gillmor and sure enough, this is Steve's post. identi.ca needs to sort out their feed a bit more. - Ken Sheppardson

Ahhh, my mistake. Fixed. Thanks! - Dave Winer

hehe.. apparently no one so far.. - Daynah

I might actually use this :) - Michael Forian

TMI, Michael. TMI. - Ⓒⓗⓡⓘⓢ Ⓟⓘⓡⓘⓛⓛⓞ

Michael, Free Porn is subscribed you to! lol (Oops.. I read it wrong. You're subscribed to him/her. heh) - Daynah

What are you talking about?!?!! Oh yeah, apparently the content's good! - Michael Forian

aaaand blocked! - Brett Kelly

now were talkin - shoemoney

ooops i clicked "Block" - AJ Batac

Maybe YouPorn should join FriendFeed (would be very, very popular)? :D - Michael Forian

Resisting URGE to click "like" - Susan Beebe

i have some images i can add if thats possible - shoemoney

thank you! I just subscribe it. - Chris Qie from twhirl

I'm from the bay area, I interpretted this as Jeremy is leaving ORD in favor of SFO ;) - Dave Dash from Alert Thingy

Frank: beats me... - Jeremy Zawodny

Frank: they're called fanboiz. - Brett Kelly
