Dear Google: Please get rid of this page. Just add a setting so I can say "always use Google Reader for RSS feeds." (Or vice versa, or an option to always ask if someone uses both.) I've been going through this extra step for years now, and I am really tired of it.

Thomas Power, Taehoon Kim, Louis Gray and Andrew Smith liked this
"A lot of what we seem to be doing in a product...is actually getting design out of the way. And I think when forms develop with that sort of reason, and they're not just arbitrary shapes, it feels almost inevitable; it feels undesigned. It feels almost, 'well of course it's that way! Why would it be any other way?'"
- Mark Trapp
"We end up spending a lot of time designing fixtures."
- Mark Trapp
"It's really important in a product to have a sense of the hierarchy of what's important and what's not important by removing those things that are all vying for your attention. An indicator has a value when it's indicating something. But if it's not indicating something, it shouldn't be there."
- Mark Trapp
He seems to really understand the fundamentals of making a desirable product and that's why I think Apple will be ok post-Jobs.
- Andrew Smith
When he came back, Jobs brought on a lot of smart guys like Ive that, at this point, would be more of a loss to Apple if they left than Jobs himself. Ive alone has lead the industrial design of every product since Jobs's return in 1997 with the iMac.

- Lindsey is Fierce!
Best for RSS feeds with lots of pictures: feedly on top of GReader. If you use Firefox, that is.
- Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
And having to do "up up down down left right left right b a" to get that thing to happen is just crazy.
- LogEx
Ok, I'll look into feedly. Can you share items with other users? And this just in . . .LogEx has won the internetz
- Lindsey is Fierce!
feedly has the same keyboard shortcuts as Google Reader (and yes it has the same sharing function as google reader +some extensions for twitter and friendfeed integration). Agreed that j/k feel backwards. I think that it is a unix heritage or something.
- Edwin Khodabakchian
Thanks . . . I'll definitely look into Feedly then
- Lindsey is Fierce!
When "vi" came out ca. 1970, it was the first "visual" editor. Terminals didn't have arrow keys at the moment, so vi used regular keystrokes in "command mode" to control cursor movement. They selected the four keys H,J,K,L to do so. CTRL+H was backspace, and used to move left; plus, "H" was on the left side of the group. So "H" became Left, and L became right, which left J and K as the "down" and "up" keystrokes, respectively. Logically, then, "J" goes to the next note ("down" the page) and "K" goes up.
- Glen Campbell
That explanation makes some sense except I would still make J up and K down
- Lindsey is Fierce!
I think different people think opposite about what is next and previous in email and greader and other programs. e.g., choose to start with newst first or oldest first, choose to show emails with newest on top or bottom, etc.
- LogEx
I'm sure LE, just trying to think about this logically. When you go to the arrow pad and start from the left, clockwise it's left, up, right, down. I'm sure we can rationalize it anyway. it just feels backwards to me.

Getty Images Launches “Call for Artists” on Flickr - http://thomashawk.com/2009...

Tim, Edward Bishop, rowlikeagirl and 9 other people liked this
A few weeks ago I wrote a post about my first six months experience selling images through Getty’s Flickr Collection. While overall I’ve been pleased with my experience with Getty, one of the things that I always felt was a limitation was the fact that the Getty/Flickr program was invite only. And while literally thousands of Flickr photographers have been invited thus far (the Flickr/Getty private member only contributor group on Flickr counts over 12,000 members and Getty says that the collection now includes over 60,000 photographs) there wasn’t really a way for a photographer to try and be included in the program if they didn’t get a Flickr invite. Until today.
- Thomas Hawk
I'm not the target audience for this (my stuff is too "all over the place" and not high enough quality) but I'm encouraged that this seems to be opening up for the little guy and not some Flickr Clique like it originally seemed. The whole point of Flickr should be inclusiveness and community and strapping the Getty wall into the middle of it really pissed me off. I don't think any...

P.S. I just did a major 60,000 maintenance 2 days ago ($502) at my mechanic in San Rafael, CA, so I'm not expecting the repairs to be too crazy. Since my Marin mechanic just looked at the car, it'll help prevent me from unexpected charges by the mechanic in Tahoe.
- Mitchell Tsai
[Summary] Trip would have been $1,200 without AAA plus or discounts. Mechanic offered to cover 1/2 of the $292 repair bill. I played $10 free play at the Hyatt up to $147 (which means I covered my half of the repair bill $146 ... by $1). Restaurants in Tahoe were lukewarm (but paid by AAA Plus).

Three Words That Could Overthrow Physics: “What Is Magnetism?” — http://discovermagazine.com/2008...
Michael W. May, Ňicķ, Andrew Smith and Matt Mastracci liked this
From Discover Magazine: "What was it that so impressed these men? These giants? It was that a magnet could move things without touching them. In science this feat is known as “action at a distance,” and it was something that used to impress people. People would see a magnet move a piece of metal, or a moon trapped in orbit around a planet, or a man in a restaurant levitate a saltshaker just by looking at it, and they would wonder how it was possible. After all, as Isaac Newton pointed out in his Principia, the notion “that one body may act upon another at a distance through a vacuum without the mediation of anything else, by and through which their action and force may be conveyed from one to another, is to me so great an absurdity that I believe no man who has in philosophic matters a competent faculty of thinking could ever fall into it.”"
- Mark Trapp
secret hidden dimensions yo!
- Ňicķ
"I set out on what I assumed would be a minutes-long odyssey to understand the phenomenon. Seventy-one days later, I am here with astonishing findings. For one thing, as far as I can tell, nobody knows how a magnet can move a piece of metal without touching it. And for another—more astonishing still, perhaps—nobody seems to care." Loving this article.

"As far as I can tell, these virtual particles are composed entirely of math and exist solely to fill otherwise embarrassing gaps in physics, such as the attraction and repulsion between magnets." *cackle*

Well, two things happen in a lifeboat scenario. People get cliquey (bond close together to cope/survive) and people peer into others eyes and wonder if mania or cannibalism is brewing. People are civilized and instinctual, so there is no inevitable outcome, but in the mean time drama ensues.

I can exist in more than one place. I can follow the people on Robert's list on Twitter and my friends here on FriendFeed and my family/friends on Facebook. Social Media Maturity means you don't have to have all your sets of friends in the one room for you to remain being friends with them.

Shey, I think this title is a little misleading. As others have said here, I think you're saying something very different from what Robert said, or at least in a very different, much more palatable way. I think you're being more specific and not so general (SOME people's experiences here aren't so great. It's not horrible for everyone.)

@Kamilah Fair assessment. I agree with Robert's assessment of the forum effect. But we're different users when it comes to Friendfeed and we want to see different things
- Shey, Jamaican of FF
I agree that FriendFeed has changed since the FB announcement, but I've been here long enough (and you have too, Shey) to have seen it change several times as people came in and left with various feature changes and overhauls. It will continue to morph into something else again, I'm sure. It's a platform that is suited to a lot of purposes and it changes as the majority of people decide...

This also assumes that FriendFeed is used exclusively in English...

At first I thought Friendfeed was a refuge for the chummy crowd. Then I saw Johnny Worthington was here and I knew it couldn't be a clique. Sorted.
