Gillmor Gang will record Monday 4PM Pacific w/... - Steve Gillmor

Great timing. Big day for FriendFeed Monday. I'll definitely be tuned in. - Rolf Schewe

Awesome! - Susan Beebe

Great! I may actually be able to catch that one due to the time! Thanks! - ursi

I will be in the air, unfortunately. Bummer. - Robert Scoble

Good to hear. A good time for that. - Thomas Hawk

Gillmor, is anyone from the FF team on your show this afternoon? - Thomas Hawk

My guess would be he's probably been tired since Friday or so, Chris. :-) - Ken Sheppardson

yes Paul Buchheit will be on Gilmor Gang at 4PM Pacific streamed on Twit.TV live - Steve Gillmor

I can barely hear what Leo is saying. - Dave Winer

Leo's spent the last few days trying to recover from a tricaster failure and has been tweaking levels on different services, getting resolutions reset on feeds, etc. The ustream feed seems to have the best audio at the moment: http://www.ustream.tv/channel... - Ken Sheppardson

50min till Gillmor Gang right? - Wo

Cris: yes - Ken Sheppardson

Thanks Ken. This real time thing is pretty neat! - Wo

Live now at http://live.twit.tv - Ken Sheppardson

Paul Buchheit, Mike Arrington, Scoble, Dan Farber, Andrew Keen, and Kevin Marks. - Ken Sheppardson

Mike says he's writing an article right now: "FriendFeed is in danger of becoming the coolest app no one uses" - Ken Sheppardson

Mike sorta declares FF missed the boat and won't be able to overcome Twitter's lead/network effects. Paul's trying to defend the fact that they can/should be more than one company in the space. - Ken Sheppardson

I disagree with Arrington - Bwana ☠

Yeah, I don't think it's going to be a short term shift en masse to FriendFeed - Ken Sheppardson

Has Andrew used the beta? - Ken Sheppardson

Andrew seems like he doesn't understand the beta. - Thomas Hawk

Talking heads are mentioning Twitter because it is a fad - Bwana ☠

the idea of twitter storing my images and video on their site gives me the willies. - Karoli

Half of them don't even know what they're saying - Bwana ☠

I wish they'd stop talking about twitter... - Adnan

yeah it seems like some of the people on the call really don't understand how the new FriendFeed even really works. - Thomas Hawk

I just brought my friends timeline into Friendfeed as a custom RSS feed. - Karoli

Bwana: Yeah, this is a whole lot more about how the standard market dynamics stuff than what FriendFeed's done - Ken Sheppardson

I thought this was going to be a "Twitter free" edition...I guess I was wrong. - Ahmed

I can't understand some of these guys because they are talking over each other. - Mol, Time Warping

Ahmed: You can't really talk about FriendFeed after today without also talking about Twitter and Facebook. - Ken Sheppardson

Hey, yeah... let's talk to Paul about this... - Ken Sheppardson

Chris: They have to go through the usual suspects before they can settle in and talk about FriendFeed :-) - Ken Sheppardson

Chris, don't take it personally. - Kevin Fox

live updating on the new beta really works well for this type of back channel. - Thomas Hawk

Ken : True... - Ahmed

This realtime discussion is amazing... instant realtime chat room! - Adnan

Mike is missing the standards conversation - Kevin Marks

Thomas, it's great. I did turn off the replies to Twitter feature though... - Karoli

Live blogging events pretty much changed overnight. - Ken Sheppardson

I'd love to ask Paul, will there be any chance to give people the choice for run-Time instead of forcing it onto people. That's what I didn't like. Leave it an option. - Mol, Time Warping

That's actually a really good point: "Celebrities aren't coming to Twitter for conversation." - Kevin Fox

Thomas: opening up an entry page (this one for instance: http://beta.friendfeed.com/stevegi...) works really well in the beta. It's like a chat room :) - Benjamin Golub

I agree with Paul, personally I'm not interested in celebrities and Twitter has very little appeal for me. I'm far more interested in interesting tech and photography and for that FF is far more interesting a place. - Thomas Hawk

Molly, just hit pause and manually refresh - Karoli

Neither is Steve Gillmor, for that matter. - Kent

Benjamin: Only little kink is the page doesn't scroll to keep up. The convo keeps walking off the bottom of the screen. - Ken Sheppardson

If I post a comment, does it leave the post input open and focused? No. :( - Michael Leggett

Are the comments to this post from Steve just an analog to an IRC chat? Looks darned familiar! - Calgary Guru

I love FF over Twitter. - Mol, Time Warping

Michael: It does if you're on a single-item page. - Kevin Fox

Calgary: Absolutly, but it's persistent, searchable, linkable... - Ken Sheppardson

RT is great for these fast-moving conversations, but if only the comment button was down at the bottom. - j1m

Michael: when on an entry page (http://beta.friendfeed.com/stevegi...) if you post a comment it immediately refocuses the comment box. Edit: Kevin beat me! - Benjamin Golub

It makes it pretty much a group IM chat. - Kevin Fox

yeah this is nice. - MG Siegler

...and when I see somebody say something interesting here, I can jump off an link to everything they've ever written. - Ken Sheppardson

J1m if you click the link and come into this post only, the comment button is at the bottom. - Simon Wicks of Eastwick

Facebook. ugh. - Karoli

Can I go slap Mike Arrington? - Mol, Time Warping

Molly, get in line behind me. - Karoli

Molly: Ask Kevin to. - Ken Sheppardson

FriendFeed pro tip: once on an entry page (http://beta.friendfeed.com/stevegi...) click on the entry timestamp again :) - Benjamin Golub

Mike was pretty hilarious at the FF demo on Friday. He was wandering around the office looking at whiteboards and stuff... - Ken Sheppardson

Why should I use FriendFeed when I'm happy on Twitter? <-- Use Twitter. Duh. - Bwana ☠

Facebook's UGI is crap now, but I still use it. :) - Mol, Time Warping

Benjamin: That's sweet! - Sam Grover

Thanks Benjamin - Phil Maxwell

oops UI not UGI - Mol, Time Warping

I like the way these comments are turning into an irc room - Kevin Marks

Twitter is a broadcasting channel now. The real exchange of ideas is going to be here. - Ken Sheppardson

FriendFeed has photos, Twitter does not, I think that's huge right there and very disruptive. - Thomas Hawk

oh, that's very cool Benjamin - Karoli

FF is good for the conversation. - Mol, Time Warping

I think with the feedback FF is getting, they will improve their UI. - Mol, Time Warping

Friendfeed is pretty cool with the update. - Paul L. McCord Jr.

It's lots of things. It's adaptable. It's sorta infinitely extensible. The trick is making it simple at the same time. - Ken Sheppardson

Paul seems like a really understanding person. - Mol, Time Warping

The comment box needs to be above the comment stream so it doesn't get pushed of the bottom of the window if a couple of people post comments while you're typing. - Phil Maxwell

Kevin: Ask what FF's runway looks like, will ya? - Ken Sheppardson

Can't wait to hear it. When will it post to the web. - Tom Parish

I am not giving Twitter or Facebook my content. They keep it - Karoli

It would be interesting to pick any two: FriendFeed, Facebook, or Twitter, and assign those two arbitrary user counts where one had 10x the other, and then try to make the argument of how the underdog was doomed, or would eclipse the larger site. - Kevin Fox

I can't understand why it's always a choice between FriendFeed or Twitter and not a choice between Facebook or Twitter. Boggles my mind - Bwana ☠

When FriendFeed will tip: When people get sick of duplicating themselves across FB, Twitter, Flickr, Disqus, BackType, etc. - Karoli

There are tautological arguments. Twitter is superior to Friendfeed because it's simple, but Facebook is superior to Twitter because it has more functionality. - Kevin Fox

I don't think a direct 1-to-1 comparison of users is fair. Does a twitter user have the same value as a FF user under all the possible monitization schemes you can imagine? - Ken Sheppardson

*sarcastic tone* Yeah get Paul off the line so we can trash FF. *rolls eyes* - Mol, Time Warping

FF is far superior to either for two simple reasons. 1. It's far better for conversations. 2. Visual representation is significant and in many ways can be more relevant than text alone. - Thomas Hawk

I prefer friendfeed over twitter because it allows a conversation to beuch less fragmented. I can see the whole conversation rather than having to jump all over the place to pick up what is being said. Twitter is one on one im and not the group chat I prefer - Iain

Scoble speaks truth. - Bwana ☠

The most telling argument is probably that this dicussion we're having here simply couldn't happen on Twitter as it currently exists. - Kevin Fox

@Kevin @Bravada Agreed! Discussion here is much easier to follow than on Twitter - Pat Hawks

Scoble rocks - Mol, Time Warping

I'm on the call and reading this - Kevin Marks

nice. hi Kevin. - Thomas Hawk

Hi Kevin :) - Mol, Time Warping

Kevin: Hi! Are you reading via the entry page (http://beta.friendfeed.com/stevegi...)? - Benjamin Golub

Much better than the 'real chat rooms' - Amyloo

Mike has a very typical biz/VC approach to this it seems. Sorta limits the scope of what one sees it seems. - Ken Sheppardson

We have real-time web around a real-time video show... - Bwana ☠

When Paul says multiple services converging... does that mean he sees friendfeed, facebook and twitter eventually having the same functionality? - Adnan

Adnon: No, it means he sees interoperability and a free flow of data between them. - Ken Sheppardson

Adnan, since Facebook seems to copy everything FriendFeed does anyway... :) - Karoli

Back in my day, we called this IRC... kinda cool it's on the web now - Bwana ☠

"Why would you want a private room?" Because some people have friends in real life that they want to share with and not worry about random people on the internets messing it up - Pat Hawks

Bwana: And we can search it, link to it, hop off form it into peoples' other stuff, etc. - Ken Sheppardson

Well, I'm off. Bye :) - Mol, Time Warping

Bwana, on the web and going out to anyone who follows you if you want it to. - Karoli

Someone should get Scoble in this thread. - Thomas Hawk

Scoble speaks for the drunken folk. yay! - Bwana ☠

Kevin: Suggest Andrew actually try it, will ya? - Ken Sheppardson

yes Kevin it would be great to let the others on the call know that this is going on. - Thomas Hawk

Beta tweak: Put a comment link a the bottom of an active thread. I keep having to scroll up to get the comment box to come back up :) - Bwana ☠

Bwana: go directly to the item. It expands automatically, and you always have a comment box open: http://beta.friendfeed.com/stevegi... - Ken Sheppardson

Bwana, are you on the permalinked (and beta) page of this thread? If so, I think the box should always show. - Philipp Lenssen

Oh ok, I was on Steve's page - Bwana ☠

IM should be a component of Twitter, except that they don't give a shit about their users. - Karoli

Is friendfeed doing anything with opensocial? - Adnan

I think FriendFeed might kill the Prime Minister of Malaysia - MG Siegler

Chris: Some folks on this call (e.g. Steve) think email's dying, yes. - Ken Sheppardson

I hate email. I like FF direct messaging. - Thomas Hawk

Compare this: http://beta.friendfeed.com/search... to this: http://search.twitter.com/search... Which is actually more meaningful? - Kevin Fox

Chris White: maybe that's why Twitter removed their IM functionality? - Phil Maxwell

Friend feed is all about the databasing and the search!! - Ed Dale

@Kevin Yes! FriendFeed search ftw - Pat Hawks

Because you're using it Leo LOL - Bwana ☠

Adnan: Matt Cutts and Paul were talking about OpenSocial last Friday night... keep your eyes open. - Ken Sheppardson

On Twitter, I know 50 people are telling other people to listen to Gillmore Gang. On Friendfeed there are several active conversations in realtime *about* the things that are being discussed on the show right now. - Kevin Fox

Kevin: perfect example - Bwana ☠

The search is the most powerful I've seen, particularly when it starts updating in real time - Karoli

Which is why I'm so excited about Filters - Bwana ☠

My company uses friendfeed as a group repository for niches we are researching - fully searchable - people can comment and it's permanent - Ed Dale

ken: I was in the middle of watching scobles video of the event when the gillmorgang started... :) - Adnan

Kevin Fox: Would be nice if there were someway to know/see what other convos are going. - Ken Sheppardson

bwana: I can't wait till when they make filters realtime! - Adnan

twitter is broadcast - friendfeed is a destination - Ed Dale

Not *everybody* uses Google, but they're doing all right - Pat Hawks

Adnan: It was after the demo, over a beer. - Ken Sheppardson

Ken Sheppardson: That's what I linked to: http://beta.friendfeed.com/search... - Kevin Fox

Google at one point was far smaller than Yahoo. And then Google came along with better tech. Sometimes you actually can build a better mousetrap. - Thomas Hawk

Adnan: seriously - Bwana ☠

It's a search for "Gillmor Gang' entries with more than 5 comments. - Kevin Fox

Leo speaks for the common man - Bwana ☠

Aha... cool. I've been trying to funnel everybody here. :-) - Ken Sheppardson

Mike is wrong about network effects and disruption. - Kevin Marks

friendfeed needs an api period - not what they are currently calling an api - bear (aka Mike Taylor)

Some superset of the Twitter API, yes - Ken Sheppardson

the trouble with twitter is the follow you follow me problem - by making it to "rude" not to follow people - they create a mess - Ed Dale

I agree with those who say the API for FF needs to be more robust. Developers won't build if they don't get an API they can work with. - Karoli

yes, follow too many people on twitter it's a total mess. FriendFeed is far more manageable. - Thomas Hawk

let him finish a sentence, mike - Ken Sheppardson

not true @chris White - anyone can send you an @ message - Ed Dale

Scoble and Mike, like a married couple :) - Simon Wicks of Eastwick

FF is vastly superior for realtime search. - Thomas Hawk

it isn't real time search, Mike. it's TRACK - Karoli

The metadata's much, much richer on FF than Twitter. - Ken Sheppardson

with the real time push, it becomes track - Karoli

I gree with that - - Ed Dale

impossible - Ed Dale

Thomas: Agreed! Robert really has a point... even Arrington agrees! realtime search is important. - Adnan

This real-time chat is one of the reasons why FF new UI is so much relevant - Martin Añazco

Martin - But it's tooo faaaaaaaast </whine> :P - Bwana ☠

Likes are much richer than Favorites - Ken Sheppardson

Bwana, you crack me up. - Kevin Fox

this chat is excellent. - Ed Dale

see how this realtime is limited to this thread....Guess what else can do that... LISTS!! - Bwana ☠

friendfeed has metadata because they don't strip it from the incoming sources - twitter strips all of it but the source and the 140 characters - bear (aka Mike Taylor)

Lists of comments provide much more semantic connectivity than @ signs on Twitter - Ken Sheppardson

@Bwana we will get use to it or find better ways to use it. It's just day 1 on this. - Martin Añazco

someone in the chat room just said short statement metadata is useless. LOL. - Karoli

Martin - yup you're right - Bwana ☠

hang with the hashtags, then - Karoli

Likes are the new retweets - Karoli

Scoble is a FFholic!! best ever.. - Ahmed

He said Plurk!! hahah - Bwana ☠

oh dear the meta data of likes and comments alone is immense for the search engine - Ed Dale

If this permalinked thread is IRC, then I would want the comment box to always be scrolled into sight/ be at the bottom, tho. - Philipp Lenssen

Twitter and FF can and will coexist. - Pat Hawks

Yeah, Laconica/Jaiku are the biggest losers here. - Ken Sheppardson

Philipp, agree. frustrating to keep having to retrieve the comment box. - Karoli

Philip it is here: http://beta.friendfeed.com/stevegi... - Bwana ☠

Robert just nailed it. - Thomas Hawk

Yes. Needles out of the haystack ftw - Pat Hawks

Ken, why isn't there a bridge into Laconica like there is to Twitter? - Karoli

That's why they're shutting him up Thomas - Bwana ☠

Right on Scoble!! - Ed Dale

You have all the same friends you had yesterday, you just see them now. You're just seeing everything you used to miss. - Ken Sheppardson

Robert is on top of it tonight - Bwana ☠

Mike Arrington is an asshole today. - Karoli

Mike! See this forum! THIS IS WHY! - Pat Hawks

@Karoli only today? - Ahmed

Karoli: You mean a little checkbox to post to Identica? Because nobody uses Identica. - Ken Sheppardson

I just realized..my FriendFeed stats are going to be weird this month... Steve Gillmor will be my #1 guy - Bwana ☠

Bwana: He has to be to deal with Mike. - Ken Sheppardson

@Ahmed I was hoping someone would say that. - Karoli

Scoble's really on today. Making very good points. - Thomas Hawk

Bwana, that is where I am, but old comments perhaps should be pushed away by new comments... right now, new comments push away the comment box instead. - Philipp Lenssen

Here it is again...Explain again Robert lol - Bwana ☠

if you have comments and likes!! you can filter!!!!! - Ed Dale

Scoble knows how FF works far more than Arrington does. - Thomas Hawk

meta data is sadly not a celebrity word :-) - Ed Dale

Ken...but still, what if we want to communicate from FF. I have to leave to reply, can't send likes there. Even if it's not huge, it would center everything on FF - Karoli

SOMEBODY get this link in front of Mike! - Pat Hawks

Scobles been put on the spot so many times, he's improved all his arguments over time! :) - Adnan

Ed - Let's make a cute name for it.. "Meta Meta" or "MoMeta" - Bwana ☠

I like how the company founder just sits back and let's Scoble explain stuff. Robert is FriendFeed's "Goose", re the Top Gun analogy earlier today. - Ken Sheppardson

@Karoli I think he is just on the show to make people angry... - Ahmed

Fluffy kitten meta - Ed Dale

also group messaging, Filters... - Ken Sheppardson

how do I make a filter of only this comment stream? (sorry if it's a stupid question) - Michael Breslin

FF = the dream of social search realized. Twitter = one big search mess. - Thomas Hawk

DITTO SCOBLE!!! - Ed Dale

awkward silence of "I'm right you're wrong" - Bwana ☠

Fuck you, Mike Arrington. Just sayin'. - Karoli

sorry about the ditto! - Ed Dale

:) - Thomas Hawk

but its searchable!!!! - Ed Dale

This could never happen on Twitter. - Thomas Hawk

its permanent!!! - Ed Dale

And you can search it later, link to other stuff, etc. - Ken Sheppardson

Michael, as a workaround, perhaps you can search for this guid and add the search as filter 579630c9-3f6c-4e9e-a8ec-4e91a52d9f91 - Philipp Lenssen

Let that become Arrington metadata. I've been saying that to myself forever - Karoli

Just today :) - Kent

If other companies start pumping their activities into twitter and if they get to critical mass, does that nuke FriendFeed? - Angus Logan

you cant save IRS ...easily - Ed Dale

We have this thread as proof when Arrington says he was behind FF all along when it becomes big - Bwana ☠

YES! - Pat Hawks

Yes, Michael - Ken Sheppardson

Ahmed, he's succeeding. - Karoli

:) - Bwana ☠

haha. yes. - Thomas Hawk

pretty much - Ed Dale

Yes, you broke the embargo... Jerk. - Bwana ☠

I love you! - Bwana ☠

I HATE you too. - Bwana ☠

wow..who likes Arrington...really? - Ahmed

Arrington should join this chat. - Thomas Hawk

Gmail has all your email. Next argument. - Ken Sheppardson

Ken wins again - Bwana ☠

and google has all its data on their site!! - Ed Dale

Angus, how is Friendfeed nuked? Given that Twitter's feed can come to FF, I'd think the superior search would hose Twitter - Karoli

uhhh... now we are worried about silos... but we aren't worried about it when we talk about twitter? - Adnan

Ken, I have all my email. GMail holds it in the cloud, but it's all stored here, too. - Karoli

Twitter is limited...FF is the future! - Ahmed

I'd rather have the guy who came up with "don't be evil" managing the conversation on his site than trusting it to Twitter. just sayin'. - Thomas Hawk

I think of the Big Three, FriendFeed is the most likely to build embeddable services that let publishers brand their conversations. - Ken Sheppardson

its certainly not either/or - Ed Dale

It's here! - Chris Baskind

It's RIGHT HERE. - Trevor Childs

WE ARE HERE :) - Ahmed

*Waves to Mike* - Ken Sheppardson

Too bad Mike doesn't listen to women. he'd have the link to the chat room now. - Karoli

too much scrolling - Maxine Appleby

and you can search for it - Ed Dale

Philipp, thanks, seems to work. - Michael Breslin

Somebody tell mike to search for "arrington comments: 200" - Ken Sheppardson

You're not good at all sir - Bwana ☠

com'on now, it's right here..my 14 year old bro can find it! - Ahmed

LOL - Bwana ☠

I found it! - Randy Archer

"It's right there at the top" :-) - Ken Sheppardson

Hi. Welcome to your doom - Bwana ☠

Hi, Mike - Ken Sheppardson

he's found it. - Thomas Hawk

Hi Mike. - Thomas Hawk

Click on the timestamp - Ken Sheppardson

What has science done?! - iluvgimp

Listening (and viewing) the discussion in real time is amazing. - Henry Burger

Here it is again!! - Jeff

found it, finally, eh? - Karoli

Does this thing auto scroll for us as well? (my entry box has just scrolled off the screen!) I guess not. - Viran

GamersCircle Comics was here - Andy Wood

Somebody tell mike to search for "arrington comments: 200" - great point - Ed Dale

this could never happen on Twitter. - Thomas Hawk

LOL blais - Bwana ☠

it isn't a chat room... it is a conversation - Brian Roy

the scroll issue needs to be fixed. hate my comment box rolling out of sight - Karoli

Auto scroll would be sweet. - Pat Hawks

how about an autoscroll? Is that possible? - Phil Maxwell

why to turn it into a room? just click on the time stamp, it has its own page - Jérôme Flipo

And we stay on topic here. (mostly) - Bwana ☠

If you go to the item directly, http://beta.friendfeed.com/stevegi... it'll scroll automatically for you, with a comment box that sticks on the bottom - Ken Sheppardson

a searchable and PERMANENT conversation - Ed Dale

go here and the box stays at teh bottom - Amyloo

muahahah - Bwana ☠

I agree with Pat...we need auto scroll - Ahmed

he found it thank the lord - Zach Scott

http://beta.friendfeed.com/stevegi... - Amyloo

Real-time comment is awesome - Jérôme Flipo

Autoscrolling would be nice - Jeff

nice, thanks Ken - Viran

no need to get my 14 year old bro lol - Ahmed

the nice thing about FF is that there hasn't really been any censorship that i've seen. - Thomas Hawk

No. The permalink does not autoscroll... - Pat Hawks

I am not a troll. I am reacting in real time. - Karoli

It's not trolling if people would say it to your face, Mike ;-) - Ken Sheppardson

Trolls are usually wrong...I'm just right :) - Bwana ☠

Oh, no, we bash Robert. - Ken Sheppardson

it's constructive criticism Mike :) - Ahmed

<3 Leo. - iluvgimp

Mike, I promise I don't spit - Karoli

Scoble made the most sense on the call. And probably knows FF better than anyone else on the call except Paul. - Thomas Hawk

block block block - Ken Sheppardson

Oohh also, use the scroll function in the browser, activated using the mousewheel/mousebutton3 and just set it to scroll to the bottom of the page, once it hits the last item, it won't scroll until a new item is added by friendfeed. - Viran

you're wrong! BLOCK! - Bwana ☠

Mike is just one of those persons that some people just love to hate :) - Phil Maxwell

LOL - Bwana ☠

Scoble has used the service a heap and gets the power of it - Ed Dale

+1 for Shel - Pat Hawks

Oh, please. stop it. you sat there and said FF would fail and a room full of people reacted . that's not trolling. - Karoli

Click on Saturday, which is a permalink and yes it does autoscroll. You need to go all the way down to the bottom - Rolf Schewe

OH Leo, don't say that please... - Trevor Childs

This is one of th few times where I completely agree with Scobel - Keith Barrett

Amyloo: How do you get to the link? - Nick in Manila

Thanks Leo :) - Andrew Smith

Scoble understands FF... mostly - Bwana ☠

@Rolf @Ken not in Firefox it doesn't - Pat Hawks

I've disagreed with him too :) - Bwana ☠

Rolf, the browser does not autoscroll here (Firefox 2.0.8). The comments do auto-push the box away instead. - Philipp Lenssen

Leo speaks sense. - Thomas Hawk

"mini-forums" will sping up where they are required - Ed Dale

+1 Karoli - Tony, Paradox of FF

Reminds me I need to cancel my Well membership. - Shawn Thompson

Yeah, in firefox the confo flows off the end of the screen - Ken Sheppardson

Good of leo to make nice with paul, so he'll want to come back... - Amyloo

idem for Chrome, Philipp - Jérôme Flipo

+1 Philipp - Pat Hawks

Yes. I thought you meant it was not real-time. Misunderstood. - Rolf Schewe

Barbarians being ... well ... actual people. - Chris Baskind

The ShamWow salesmen - Bwana ☠

I put my screen bottom up, so that the last comment is always at the top :D - Jérôme Flipo

But if we are commenting publicly how can we be trolls? - Brian Allen

Talent is not universal - Ken Sheppardson

Chris Baskind +1 - Karoli

I gotta say, the FF UI is not very intuitive. - iluvgimp

I am using Firefox 3.1 beta. Same thing happens here - Rolf Schewe

twitter will be fine if they get rid of auto follow - Ed Dale

It helps Hammer - Bwana ☠

Unwashed masses: The people that do not use leading edge tech - Keith Barrett

:) - Bwana ☠

who cares about following celebrities. I don't. I'm much more interesting in following great photographers. - Thomas Hawk

Doesn't auto-keep box at bottom of browser window in Chrome either here. - Philipp Lenssen

Well Leo..she did stop a suicide, so she is pretty smart.. - Ahmed

Wow, real time increase a lot the comment flooding, look at this thread! - Jérôme Flipo

Oh, the permalink is on the date, kind of like Wordpress. - Nick in Manila

Trolls .. Blocking give trolls more power - Michael Holzinger

Ed, I disagree. The Twitterati lists combined with lack of track mean it will be elitist. that's how they want it. Like Google weighting toward corporate sites in their results - Karoli

Nick: and Twitter :) - Bwana ☠

Jerome: We're discussing the live streaming Gillmor Gang at http://live.twit.tv - Ken Sheppardson

awkward silence of "wut" - Bwana ☠

Sometiemes trolls are nice to have around. - Thomas Hawk

I'm on Twitter because my site's readers are there, too. - Chris Baskind

Chrome seems to handle the ajax in a little smoother way on the thread page - Amyloo

wow, this is long. I like the trend with FF. They just need to give me some numbers that will boost my ego and I'll switch over. - Nick Gonzalez

Chris: I thought a troll was somebody who tried to incite you into responding. - Ken Sheppardson

@Philipp Lenssen Same issue here. I need to scroll down constantly to play catch up with the ever growing conversation. Hopefully there will be a fix for that. - Rolf Schewe

Mike, this could never happen on Twitter. - Thomas Hawk

As opposed to Twitter. - Ken Sheppardson

MAINSTREAM users pay for servers and keeping a service up. - Angus Logan

you are Mike - Andrew Smith

And now Mike is the Troll - Pat Hawks

Mike's trolling :-) - Ken Sheppardson

Twitter would get a reaction..we're too smart for that kind of bait - Bwana ☠

@Ken, I know, I'm listening too :S - Jérôme Flipo

Chris, exactly. so if you could bring your Twitter stream into Friendfeed, and reply from there, it's an invitation to conversation - Karoli

Mike is so much fun. ;-) - Chris Baskind

Leo nailed it. - Thomas Hawk

better than the junior high kids in the chat on the video pages! - Amyloo

Oh no..you didn't! - Ahmed

Leo, FTW. - Karoli

"I said that just to get a reaction." the definition of trolling. - Tony, Paradox of FF

Twitter = the AOL of Micromessaging. - Thomas Hawk

Agree with thomas - twitter is about individuals - friend feed will work for groups - Ed Dale

Mike would be a good agent provocateur. - Rolf Schewe

@Rolf Schewe I'm using the autoscroll using the mousewheel button to permanently scroll to the bottom of the page, give that a try :) - Viran

how many comments can a post hold before it starts messing up the browser? are their any posts with 1000+ comments? - Phil Maxwell

It's not Twitter vs FriendFeed.... - Bwana ☠

scoble's giving away money post had over a thousand I think. - Thomas Hawk

Twitter is a brilliant success that has not made a cent yet - Ed Dale

We could care less if Twitter succeeds - Bwana ☠

There's a difference between lots of people and quality content - Pat Hawks

MySpace grew at a staggering rate for awhile too - Karoli

and twitter is avery different service to friendfeed - Ed Dale

Phil, Robert had a 1000+ comment string - Karoli

Viran, I tried that, but how do you combine it with typing? :) - Philipp Lenssen

@Karoli ROFL - Pat Hawks

friendfeed will never be able to compete with Twitter's simplicity. - Phil Maxwell

That's like saying Facebook will fail because Twitter succeeds - Bwana ☠

Why can't Twitter, FriendFeed, and Facebook all succeed? Apple seems to be doing just fine right along side Microsoft? - Ken Sheppardson

Twitter is only a small part of FF. FF supplements other services - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)

Anybody who compares FriendFeed directly with Twitter doesn't understand Twitter - Pat Hawks

@Viran Thanks. Works great, until I have to type. ;) - Rolf Schewe

build in Friendfeed comments to your blog, Mike - Karoli

I will, however, refrain from repeating my FF/My Space comparison. ;-) - Chris Baskind

JaikuEngine: -) - Ken Sheppardson

I think in the future, people are going to hate simple stuff, they will need more features... - Ahmed

XMPP - Phil G

So how does the plugging of networks happen? Open Social? Why won't they talk about that? - Adnan

Yeah a comment button on the BOTTOM of the feed!!!!!!!!!!!!1 yeah! thanks for listening to my request for this earlier today!!!!1 woooo hooo! - Susan Beebe

twitter and friendfeed work well together - Ed Dale

REALTIME BLOG -- Try real time comments when people aren't on your blog using IM for the hundreds of millions of people on their desktop - Angus Logan

So we've went from it'll fail, to "I want this" - Bwana ☠

Ok must go... hubby wants BEEEEEEEER :) sorry to hit and run - Susan Beebe

Susan: Yes, when you're viewing an individual post. - Ken Sheppardson

I will crush the enemy social media and drive them before me and hear the lament of their users. - Moved to Facebook

smart hubby. - Thomas Hawk

i want transcript of the Gillmor Gang show today... :) - Susan Beebe

Bwana: I'm sure part of it is devils advocate/entertainment. - Ken Sheppardson

Its also very easy to subscribe to people here who are making sense - just click on their name - Ed Dale

Or good old fashioned two facerry - Bwana ☠

If the commenting systems go away, we still have the data. - Chris Baskind

Thomas - Yep we're celebrating! He finally dumped a client I advised him to dump MONTHS ago! my treat...LOTS of beer - Susan Beebe

I just made up a word - Bwana ☠

Mike throws stuff into Twitter. THAT is why it's better than FriendFeed - Pat Hawks

FriendFeed is the most likely of any of these big services to provide you with something that'll live on your system. - Ken Sheppardson

yes you did - Susan Beebe

Who here is making sense? - iluvgimp

haha funny Bwana! - Susan Beebe

stuff -nice word for it - Susan Beebe

lol @ Bwana - Tony, Paradox of FF

Susan's making the most sense about the whole getting beer for her husband thing. - Thomas Hawk

Daniel: What do you mean? We're talking about the live feed at http://live.twit.tv - Ken Sheppardson

how big will friendfeed have to get before kevin marks makes the move over to it? - Amyloo

yep :) I should should real-time comment how good each Harp & Guinness on tap will taste :) - Susan Beebe

having the data is HUGE. Twitter doesn't give yours back. Facebook? HAHAHAHA - Karoli

We use it for storage and search - create a room for a niche, get all the feeds in their and see what people like and what they comment on - Ed Dale

love you guys... gotta run... this is FUNNNNNNN :) thanks FF :) - Susan Beebe

http://activitystrea.ms and http://opensocial.org - Kevin Marks

Hello world \n - Ricardo Liberato

it's my default now - Amyloo

KShep: I'm listening to the same feed :) Just making a joke about none of this making sense. - iluvgimp

I'm never goin' back - Pat Hawks

People hate the grey - Bwana ☠

userstyles ftw - Bwana ☠

agreed Pat - Ed Dale

The summary: Twitter has already changed the game. FF could maybe change the game, but whether it will remains to be seen. We are still in the early stages of how this stuff works. Obviously, Twitter and FF (and dozens of other services) aren't mutually exclusive. - Albert Willis

user styles would rawk - Karoli

Daniel: gotcha - Ken Sheppardson

Is there a Pause hotkey? - Chris Baskind

i like FF beta - Michael Holzinger

oh Leo, they are not. - Karoli

@amyloo I'm mostly on twhirl, but this new FF is looking good - Kevin Marks

Pause button needs a refresh every X seconds option - Tony, Paradox of FF

Space bar should pause. - Jérôme Flipo

Like the FF beta : yes or no? - Ahmed

I;d like to turn bubbles off on the RT feed. I need my ral0estate - Keith Barrett

452 comments and no swear words or repeat spam messages. How is that bad? - Phil G

When you do a new DM...it defaults to MyFeed...bad..very bad - Bwana ☠

kevin, no, i meant go to work for them! - Amyloo

yep - Ricardo Liberato

seems almost too simple - Zach Scott

Yes, a pause keyboard shortcut would be sweet - Phil Maxwell

and fixed. - Bwana ☠

keyboard shortcuts period - Bwana ☠

I like the comments gray. - Thomas Hawk

black comments are a big one for me. don't dig the lighter comments - Karoli

Please, Kevin, ask for a "pause" keyboard shortcut! - Jérôme Flipo

themes ftw - Jay Neff

I agree, can you make them black? It's hard to tell I'm supposed to read this - Colin

THEMES! Woooooo - Phil G

Yes, nobody's made that request before, have they ;-) - Ken Sheppardson

spacebar pause ...should be simple to do right? - Bwana ☠

I think holding down the mouse button should pause - Pat Hawks

Phil, wiggling the mouse does pause it momentarily - Karoli

Theming would be nice, the pastel blue usernames don't show up too well for me :( - Viran

I'd pay $5 a month for access to CSS - Andrew Smith

500 comments now. - Marc Dong

Grey is perfect for me. - Jérôme Flipo

I'd like my comments to be in a different color though to find them. - Thomas Hawk

There are over 450 comments now. Is this a conversation anyone wants to follow, or is this evanescent like a chat room? - Francine Hardaway

Themes FTW! - Ahmed

I love the new UI, keep up the good work! - Jay Neff

It will seem weird without gray comments but I could live with it. - Mitch

whoa this is like a chat room when you get down to the individual feed item page, 10 comments posted before i could finish this - sean percival

Somebody suggest Andrew Keen try the service. - Ken Sheppardson

Search is EVERYTHING - Ed Dale

Francine, it's great in real time, and searchable later - Karoli

FF = social search of the future. - Thomas Hawk

no one talked about Filters - Bwana ☠

Karoli, but then I have to take my hands off the keyboard :) - Phil Maxwell

:( - Bwana ☠

francine not like a chatroom -- it effectively is one - Amyloo

very hard to scroll back to Comment link - need to be able to lock in on a realtime thread like this - jcunwired

It's probably a boring read, Francine, but perhaps a search goldmine. - Phil G

custom themes would be nice - Zach Scott

Bwana: Small steps :-) - Ken Sheppardson

Glad to see Leo likes it so much. - Thomas Hawk

Cheese... moved....RAWR - Bwana ☠

i'm about 500 comments late to this thread, but loving the new beta, on my mac & iphone. My new default on both platforms. - Jeffrey Marsh

Francine: it's basically the TWiTLive impromptu chat - iluvgimp

I'm doing a video tonight Leo :) - Bwana ☠

Jeffrey how are you viewing it on the iPhone - Karoli

most of the comments won't make sense not in real time - Phil Maxwell

Was a good chat - Simon Wicks of Eastwick

Is Léo looking at this thread right now? - Jérôme Flipo

I was going to ask for themes. - archaictree

beta interface works on iPhone - Bwana ☠

jcunwired: you can, click this link: http://beta.friendfeed.com/stevegi... - Phil G

I hated the way it rendered on the iPhone - Karoli

I ALWAYS used the feeeds in real-time--wish the filters were RT. - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)

will be fun to read while listening to the recording, though - Amyloo

I do agree with Arrington: realtime FF is nice, but is it the game changer that Steve Gilmore's post implied? Not yet--at least not for most people. - Albert Willis

"It's all about search"... indeed:-) - Patrick Chanezon

this must look annoyingly awesome on the iphone, let's look. - iluvgimp

I like that the comments are bubbling up on the front page too - Kevin Marks

and you can search it!!!! - Ed Dale

Hey, even Patrick is here. Woot! - Jérôme Flipo

@Karoli just via the browser (saved it to homescreen)....granted i am on wi-fi, but even real-time seems to work great - Jeffrey Marsh

top secret fuzzy logic - Bwana ☠

it's about discovery as well as search, and the interesting space inbetween - Kevin Marks

nice job guys - Jay

good beta test of the realtime interface - Bwana ☠

haha, tired of hearing about Scoble's car problem. - Thomas Hawk

and it was useful - Bwana ☠

Ok, i think i need to be part of this too! - Damien Benoit

hello ... joining in! :) - Garys Wine

Go for simplicity, FriendFeed - Mitch

How long until filters are real time?? - Ken Sheppardson

Click hide, done, no more car problem - Tony, Paradox of FF

I echo Ken's question - Bwana ☠

the nice thing about friendfeed is that if you get tired of something bubbling you can just hide it. - Thomas Hawk

Scoble's car brand should advertise on this thread :D - Jérôme Flipo

Somebody ask paul when Filters will go real time? - Ken Sheppardson

I also echo Ken's question - Adnan

Thomas - It would be nice to "anchor" it down without completely hiding it though. - Mitch

Albert Willis it is the gamechanger. It may take people time to figure it out, but Twitter took 3 years to jump the shark, so... - Karoli

@Paul: when Filters will go real time? - Jérôme Flipo

Chris, backward filters on home feed: exclude certain feeds from appearing on home feed - Karoli

@Chris: maybe "make this filter your homepage" would do it. - Jérôme Flipo

Pluggable algorithms for filtering/bubbling up would be interesting too. - Patrick Chanezon

should latest post be up top? date and time added? - Garys Wine

Holy update! - Dave VanderWall

I got some kewl filters brewing - Bwana ☠

would be nice to have some draggability to speed friend list making - Amyloo

take any Hobby -feed all the best feeds into it - one stop shot - Ed Dale

Agreed Amyloo - Mitch

I never really visioned FriendFeed as a place for spontaneous chats before today. - Thomas Hawk

holy crap.. looks good on the iphone.. a dedicated iphone app would be even better - iluvgimp

Everybody should check out AJ Batac's theme at http://beta.friendfeed.com/ajbatac... - Ken Sheppardson

great question. - Bwana ☠

omg... real-time chat engine! - AJ Batac

Thanks Steve - Jérôme Flipo

Man I love filters - Bwana ☠

before the service comes out of beta? - Ken Sheppardson

sweet - Ken Sheppardson

How would one deal with spam commenters in threads like these? - Philipp Lenssen

glad they took their time on this; it's really nice - Amyloo

Thanks Steve! :) - Ahmed

hidden stuff should stay hidden in filters as well. - Thomas Hawk

Filters FTW - Ken Sheppardson

less than a month... and with full keyboard shortcuts! - Jérôme Flipo

You need to promote it to your niches - Thomas to Photographer for example :-) - Ed Dale

I like how a comment thread is also a topic oriented chat room that can be archived and linked to unlike traditional chat room conversations that disappear once you close them. - Rolf Schewe

Philipp: Each person could eal with them individually: block - Ken Sheppardson

darn, I zoned out. Stupid A.D.D. - Bwana ☠

Exactly Rolf!!! - Ed Dale

can this section be expanded in the beta? I liked the old view so I could see stuff I missed - Scott Kingery

600 comments now. - Marc Dong

Everybody can make their own judgement what's spam - Ken Sheppardson

Rolf - Yeah this is a lot more IRC-feeling isn't it. - Mitch

I've had this running as the lead items on my Flickr page all day. I'm trying to promote FF at Flickr and other photography related places as much as I can. Love seeing great photos on FF. - Thomas Hawk

is direct message here a new thing, or just something i never noticed? - Amyloo

this doesnt auto scroll on Mac/Firefox FYI ... i have to keep scrolling to catch up - Garys Wine

nambuu - Phil G

Track = "friends:kshep or term1 or term2 or term3 or" as a filter - Ken Sheppardson

Spam is simple - dont follow everyone - follow people you know - Ed Dale

it's new - Bwana ☠

@Daniel Boehmisch I thought so, others may disagree, but I am going to give it a try over the next few days and see how smooth it runs...but I agree a dedicated app would probably be better - Jeffrey Marsh

@Mitch DALnet2000 ;) - Rolf Schewe

Watching this on post on Twit.tv while watching it on Friendfeed. Yo Dawg... - Eric @ CS Techcast

there's been very little spam in FF. When you do see it it's almost sort of fun. - Thomas Hawk

Well, Ed, but in threads like this you see everybody. Not just the folks you're following. - Ken Sheppardson

Ed, I was talking about specific comments in this thread, which show even when you're not following the person... and I didn't notice any block button when hovering over a name. - Philipp Lenssen

All thats missing is a realtime list of whos all currently viewing this page. - Tony, Paradox of FF

@Bwana are going to make a tutorial on how to use Filters??? - Ahmed

lol 16 new results on "Gillmor Gang" on Twitter since Kevin Fox posted it.... and 200 new comments here. We win. - Bwana ☠

Twhirl client shipping tomorrow: looking foward to see what it does! - Patrick Chanezon

I tell you what, next time I liveblog something, I'm just opening up a FF thread and going to town. - Phil G

oh gotcha! - Ed Dale

No, it's easier! (posting to FF compared to Twitter) - Jérôme Flipo

Ahmed: yeah, producing the video tonight - Bwana ☠

trouble with friendfeed clients is that they refresh when you like or comments which really disrupts friendfeed flow - Ed Dale

Why can't you CC: to Facebook as well? - iluvgimp

@Bwana thanks, can't wait to watch it... - Ahmed

BWana: is your voice/natural language -> filters converter done yet? - Ken Sheppardson

Ken: Prototypes are being brainstormed - Bwana ☠

Thomas, we had tried to experiment with Friendfeed for chat a year ago but the interface wasn't very fit for it then http://friendfeed.com/e... - Philipp Lenssen

heading home to the wife and kids. thanks to all for the chat during the show. this was fun. - Thomas Hawk

Sweeeeet - Ken Sheppardson

heh - Bwana ☠

@ iluvgimp - Facebook has a Friendfeed addon which basically does the same result. - Tony, Paradox of FF

See you, Thomas - Jérôme Flipo

direct message methods twitter api http://apiwiki.twitter.com/REST+AP... - Patrick Chanezon

Philipp, real time updating is a whole new experience. Later all. - Thomas Hawk

You know, it really would've been better to have this as a room., rather than a thread in the main feed... - Ken Sheppardson

let's try it, what's the syntax? - Amyloo

chattin at http://live.twit.tv - Garys Wine

Welcome Garys Wine - Viran

oh no..almost 2:30 am over here..."Cairo, Egypt time" later guys! - Ahmed

Actually no... direct message is a specific API call - Brian Roy

Or just send a FF to a proxy "Twitter" user you set up for your own accounts on different services - Ken Sheppardson

http://twitter.com/direct_... - Patrick Chanezon

@Ahmed. 2:30 is also Paris time. Zzzzzz - Jérôme Flipo

Mightly mouse = fail - ralphsaunders

the longest wine? - Garys Wine

Could the beta.friendfeed.com makes the Digg homepage? - Jérôme Flipo

Watching now, am coming in an hour late though. - Brian Tiede

Gilmore - good show on TwiT.tv - TJ Polczyn

Jérôme, we could try :) - Philipp Lenssen

Scrolling to the top to comment everytme is ... annoying. - ralphsaunders

Oops, I take that back. It's #3. You can see the long threads here: http://friendfeed.com/search... - Gary Burd

I don't care for the ff.im links - Phil Maxwell

@ralphsaunders ... mighty mouse is saving my life right now :) - Garys Wine

ralphsaunders: click "Saturday", it's a permalink - iluvgimp

ralphsaunders: click on the timestamp ("Saturday") to go to the permalink http://beta.friendfeed.com/scoblei... - Benjamin Golub

EXACTLY as a chat room :-) - Ken Sheppardson

Whoops bad copy buffer! http://beta.friendfeed.com/stevegi... - Benjamin Golub

They should hire some Google folks. - Ken Sheppardson

And Twitter isn't? :) - Bwana ☠

@Garys Wine Would be quicker with a conventional mouse heh heh :P - ralphsaunders

except I dont like the comment box floating down down down - Scott Kingery

The Swarm == The Hive Mind? - iluvgimp

A linkable archived chatroom. How long it is archived I do not know. - Rolf Schewe

its word tetris! - jcunwired

the whole time i thought this was a "different" chat room LOL - Garys Wine

well, it's behaving like a chatroom - it's lost the overlapping publics model of twitter - Kevin Marks

Leo: You can have a thread like this for every show you do, in your TWiT FF room - Ken Sheppardson

Sweet thanks Benjamin Golub - ralphsaunders

Leo: to a large extent, this is the giant stream of everything you've been talking about RE XMPP - Ken Sheppardson

Bwana - it's turtles all the way down. - Phil G

I can't see!! - Randy Archer

700 comments now. - Marc Dong

dip in is a good strategy Leo! - Garys Wine

BTW, it's an "editable" chat room. That's amazing too. - Jérôme Flipo

Feudal or futile? - Trevor Childs

KShep: ie, "The River" - iluvgimp

@Ken I agree. Why use disposable chat sessions when you can link, search and archive them here? - Rolf Schewe

Leo ... imagine what it would be like with twit on sunday :P - ralphsaunders

@Jérôme Flipo ... oh yeh ..I just edited my post as a test, that's a good point!! - Garys Wine

I love the Gillmor Gang - Wo

I've managed to read everything, but could not parse the voice. will have to listen to recording - Amyloo

Editable chat rooms ... the wave of the future! - Garys Wine

I'm with Andrew Keen on this one. I find this all hard to understand, and therefore tiresome. So there. I want something simple and compelling - Francine Hardaway from IM

yes, we have the swarm/river/whatever... now we need to figure out how to give users the ability to manage scarce attention. - Brian Roy

You can scan friendfeed but how do you scan a discussion thread such as this? - Adnan

Jérôme, you're giving me an idea about animated ASCII art here :) - Philipp Lenssen

will this thin thread just keep digging down until it hits china? - clewellyn

Francine: It can be that if you want it. - Ken Sheppardson

Should there be a preference option for the text to scroll down and put the new comments on top? Would be nice. - iluvgimp

oooooooooooops - missed it - Marc Canter

if i could call a number and speak the text into friendfeed, now that's an app! - Garys Wine

let's go for a Guinness World Record ... let's never stop this chat/feed and keep it going forever ... - Garys Wine

lol - Jay Neff

How do you use the new beta RT feed in firefox sidebar? - Keith Barrett

Netbook with WWAN as a FriendFeed appliance. - Ken Sheppardson

iPhone app - TJ Polczyn

A FriendFeed iPhone app or a robust web app that works well on the iPhone browser would be cool. - Rolf Schewe

Dial 2 Do might be able to do that, I know you can blog via a phone call using that service - Viran

There already are "skins" e.g. http://beta.friendfeed.com/ajbatac... - Ken Sheppardson

On the iPhone I can't see contending with all these different FF issues - Francine Hardaway

I also wish I could search FF for twitter followers/followees to build my cloud - Keith Barrett

"Cleaner Friendfeed" is a *great* add-on. http://beta.friendfeed.com/ajbatac... - Ken Sheppardson

GREAT SHOW! - Keith Barrett

Lol! - Garys Wine

Good Job LEO ... Thanks! - Randy Archer

I tried the FF Facebook app. 1. It looks abandoned, and 2. I see Facebook as a subset of my overall social content and FriendFeed as my hub. - Rolf Schewe

"774 more comments". That's huge. - Jérôme Flipo

and i guess the real time stuff must be in http://beta.friendfeed.com/static... - Patrick Chanezon

Great show, nice chat-stream too. - Willem (@wim66) ☠

Matt Cutts and Paul were already talking OpenSocial at the demo last Friday - Ken Sheppardson

hmm this is seriously like a chat. - ralphsaunders

Very intertaning show! - Adam Hubbs

Should've asked Paul if he wants to go back to Google. - Ken Sheppardson

On bart now. Someone should submit this post to digg. There are enough people here to get it on the front page - Thomas Hawk

Welcome back Thomas ;) I tried to post to digg using the new diggbar. Failed :( - Jérôme Flipo

Thomas it was mentioned, will check it out - jcunwired

Not chat - dialogue? - Randy Archer

We had similar problems with the last Beta Friendfeed release, Digg says "This link does not appear to be a working link. Please check the URL and try again." Friendfeed might be sending the wrong http header for Digg. - Philipp Lenssen

63283 chars of minified javascript: nice job Bret! - Patrick Chanezon

digg submit didn't work, even with link from friendfeed.com (not beta) - jcunwired

I think scoble was right, mike arrington isn't aware how quickly things roll in a revolution. - Jan Zimak

Arrington - I am a fan of your honest point of view. (how's that for balancing out the negative?) - clewellyn

Philipp (and others), Digg submission should be working now, so Digg in :) - Paul Buchheit

sweet! thank you :) - Jay Neff

Have watching twitlive.tv and watching lots of comments to this post scroll by but not seeing it on beta.friendfeed.com - John Wood

this thread today was one of the most awesome things I've seen on FriendFeed yet. - Thomas Hawk

still going? - Garys Wine

继续顶，顶到1k - 阿石

At over 800 comments in under 8 hours, this thread has sprouted 100 per hour. Not bad for the best system that no one uses. - Micah Wittman

Mike Arrington is a stupid. - Wo

Hey no one uses friendfeed, right? Where did 800+ comments come from? - Robert Scoble

I'm certainly not using friendfeed. (It's using me.) - Jon Lebkowsky

Robert - exactly! - Susan Beebe

Thanks Paul - Ok I just submitted this to Digg http://digg.com/softwar... Go Digg it up!! - Susan Beebe

Well, this thread kind of proves that the FriendFeed model works. Fairly emphatically. - Jamie

Jamie, yeah, I just listened to the parts that I missed. Arrington is wrong, but it will take some time to prove him so. - Robert Scoble

Apparently I had an easier time finding this thread than Michael Arrington did. - Michael K Pate

what's it? - Do Young Min
