friendfeed is getting very close to being usable
Just needs an edible crow feature first. - Mark Trapp
heh. - Thomas Hawk
I'm sure some can jscript that up for him ;) - Michael W. May from twhirl
I hear jerked crow is good. Notice how this was worded that FriendFeed changed something. - Bwana ☠
oooh looks who's taking in the FriendFeed koolaid now :*) - Susan Beebe
totally - loren feldman
twitter must be freaking you out to say such words - Dobromir Hadzhiev
I knew this day was coming. Though its come about 2 months earlier than expected - Jamie
I said it before, the longer IM/Track is down, the easier it is to forget why you loved it. - Bwana ☠
Just needs a bloody mobile interface! - Prolific Programmer
Hmm... Maybe I should check this FriendFeed out since it's almost usable. Oh, wait a second... - Kevin C. Tofel
Friendfeed in Twhirl is still far from usable for me Steve - The way it keeps popping up items with new comments is annoying - pure flow is much, much better - Chris Saad from twhirl
Possibly, Steve meant that as the number of users grow, the service becomes more usable. - Dan Sleezer
I wonder how long it will take for Steven to use the GillmorGang room http://friendfeed.com/rooms... here on FriendFeed? - Susan Beebe
@Dan he can spin it that way, sure ;) - Michael W. May from twhirl
"FriendFeed is a parasite service built on the back of Twitter. Let’s get this straight. No Twitter, no FriendFeed. Want to kill FriendFeed, as I certainly do? Cut off its oxygen. Take a page from Facebook’s incompetent UnFriend Connect gambit and refuse to pass Twitter posts through non-compliant ex-Google engineering scams." Steve Gillmor, May 24, 2008. - Thomas Hawk
wow, what a quote...thanks for sharing Thomas! ouch - Susan Beebe
yeah its growing on me as well - Fred Grott
Even though it is about two comments up, I'd like to reiterate the point made by Thomas Hawk: "FriendFeed is a parasite service built on the back of Twitter. Let’s get this straight. No Twitter, no FriendFeed. Want to kill FriendFeed, as I certainly do? Cut off its oxygen. Take a page from Facebook’s incompetent UnFriend Connect gambit and refuse to pass Twitter posts through non-compliant ex-Google engineering scams." Steve Gillmor, May 24, 2008. - Dan Kaplan
Thomas Hawk might be wrong see FF share butttn at top of FF page..ever use it? - Fred Grott
Richard: I only reposted for comedic effect, like those moments on the Daily Show when they cut between a politician saying something that totally contradicts something they said in the past and then do it again - Dan Kaplan
I hid twitter updates for a few days. Didn't miss a whole lot. - Kevin L
Dan, I was quoting Steve, not expressing my own thoughts on FF. Richard. This is not something Gillmor said "months" ago, it's something that he wrote 34 days ago. - Thomas Hawk
FF works fine for me, every day. And it's better than Twitter or Plurk. FF is an aggregator, not a parasite. - Bill Sodeman from fftogo
In fact I might hide it again, just because it is mostly just @ replies and links to content that is already on friendfeed. Wish there was a better way to filter, perhaps by minimum number of comments/likes, or an intelligent filter that knows when something is a duplicate. - Kevin L
See, you have 33 replies on FF, isn't it more engaging?! - Shivanand Velmurugan
Like Peanut butter on lettuce, during the Weimar Republic - Duncan Riley
@ Scott some of us find him an interesting voice to listen to. - Jamie
@Thomas Hawk: Ha. 34 days is the new 34 weeks. You didnt know that? - ※Fu※
give in to the dark side gillmor - Tyler Gillies
Gillmor speaks truth. - Vezquex: God of FF
