I am seeing the exact same pattern. - Steve Rubel
Please god can we stop the endless "Friendfeed versus Twitter/Google Reader/blog comments/everything else" discussions? FF is a different kind of tool. It is not a versus thing. - Ian Betteridge
When the next FriendFeed comes, we'll be comparing with the current FriendFeed :) - Muthu Ramadoss

I keep secretly wishing I hit some sort of usage limit so I have to walk away. Damn you Friendfeed and your scalability! - Mark Trapp
It's a lot harder for me to walk away from FriendFeed than Twitter. - Michelle Martinez
I refresh often too - Judy Jones
F5 = crack - Hutch Carpenter
Welcome to da club? - Yuvi
I find FF more interesting as well. - Globecode
I resent the implication that ever-refreshing FriendFeed is not constructive! - Marco
lol@Hutch Indeed - Shey
It's gotten so bad that I have to regulate myself. I use a plug-in for FireFox called Leechblock that you can use to limit your time during the work day.: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-... - Dan Kaplan
huh? F5 just blips my Mac's little sound level at me. - Thomas Hawk
@Thomas F5 = Command + R on a PC. Refresh. - Parth Awasthi
Yes, FF is the new internet addiction. F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5... - Tad Donaghe
The only way to solve this problem is for you people to post quicker ;) - Earl E Morningwood
Use LeechBlock, limit yourself to 5 minutes an hour, you won't be sorry. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-... - Jason Wehmhoener
@Jason you essentially just told Amy Winehouse she should check herself into rehab - how likely do you think we are to match your show of discipline? lol ; ) - Marco
At some point we just need FF to auto-refresh every second and include a pause button so we can stop the action to read stuff that catches our eyes. That would be pretty freaky, huh? - Tad Donaghe
it has been eating into my reading and sleeping time - RAPatton
What? Reading Friendfeed isn't constructive or creative? - Tom Landini
like right now, for example - Sarah Perez
Sometimes I interrupt what I'm doing (re-reading the manual for Twilight Struggle) just to check for new FriendFeed action. Totally addicted. - Akiva Moskovitz
I do that too. But now we're going to see the Incredible Hulk. - Robert Scoble
F5=Crack. Crack is Whack. Flickr = Crack. FF is the new Flickr. - Russellreno
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O... It helps if you don't notice the walls of the maze aren't very high and there are these people looking down on you. - Karim
RusselReno, I had to double-check to make sure that you weren't Steve Gillmor - Todd McKinney
@Todd rofl - Michael W. May via twhirl
+1 rofl for Todd. And good one Russell. - Hutch Carpenter
and sometimes you just can't help a 'likey' even thought you didn't click ... right? :) - Charlie Anzman
a bigger screen real estate could mitigate this problem - Ramesh Ramloll via twhirl
Yeah it's addictive :) - JegerPhil - Phil via NoiseRiver
Wait that's not normal??? - Mona N
FrF cries for TTS ;) - silpol
time consumption is simply the manual behavior. Get an auto refresher and save a micro second. ;) then again, if you want to remain aware, you have to read everything! - thecolor
use twhirl and updates come automatically to your desktop... no need of refresh, layout is awesome (discussions, etc) - Gustavo Munoz via twhirl
If we could get paid for using FriendFeed, wouldn't we all have our own private islands? - possible248
More like one palm tree, a couple of rocks, and a sewage outflow. - Akiva Moskovitz
FriendFeed Addiction:) - Igor Poltavskiy

We must save The Twitter. - Ed Shaz/NextInstinct
Honestly, what does Twitter offer me that Friendfeed doesn't already take care of? The benefit of twitter was the ability to have mass conversations and those are near impossible. FF is so much easier to track. - tsudohnimh
I'll tell you a BIG difference: friendfeed seems to take itself very seriously. This can help facilitate a certain type of conversation, which has its place. I feel like twitter gives me space to say whatever I want, without it falling flat. - rambn
i don't see why it's one or the other. they both work in different ways and have a different reach. twitter can perhaps work to enhance friendfeed. it doesn't work so much the other way around, as friendfeed just offers more flexibility not to mention the ability to write more than a limited amount of words like i'm doing now. - Cee Bee
Cee Bee, I'm guessing if you play a lot of zero-sum games, you tend to see the world as one "x vs. y" after another... - Karim
I agree that the Twitter dudes are too lax at sensing user dissatisfaction. The relaxed California attitude, (Twittering about soy lattes after being down all week), is foolish. And the arrogance of listening to their $15,000,000 VC friends telling them 'don't worry about current defections, there will be a crowd there when you get there', is equally foolish. It was the excellent attitude of the original shop 2 years ago, that got them here. - Ed Shaz/NextInstinct
Man let this whole FriendFeed vs. Twitter thing go! They don't even compete in the same space. FriendFeed has a completely different objective. FriendFeed benefits from Twitters or other services. I can't believe you are even comparing the 2. I'm getting tired of all these Twitter vs. FriendFeed comparisons. The more people who join Twitter, FriendFeed doesn't care, in fact it benefits. FriendFeed is like those multi-service instant messaging clients. - Michael Narciso
rambn: Twitter gives you the space to say whatever you want without anyone listening. :-) It's no place to have a conversation. Half life of conversations on Twitter are about four minutes. On FriendFeed? A conversation can go on for hours. - Robert Scoble
BUT!!! One of the real ills of society, indeed the latest generations, is the lack of staying power and loyalty. A shallow, superficial, impatient human condition serves none of us well. There are terrific hardworking inspired people inside Twitter. And perhaps Evan, Biz, and Jack had to shut out the signal for the noise, But they do need a better sense of reality. This ain't new. - Ed Shaz/NextInstinct
Robert, in other words FriendFeed is like a newsgroup or forum conversation...but feels broader in cross-section. Twitter is more positional - people do not converse, they simply state positions. - Craig Thomler
how many of those followers on FF are overlapped with followers on Twitter though? I know Im one of them, relatively late to the twitter game but got on to FF fairly quickly after it launched. - Devlin Dunsmore via twhirl
I think it shows more of a trend in which twitter was an early entrant and the space slowly took off whereas FF joined the space after services like twitter paved the way. - Devlin Dunsmore via twhirl

iPhone and Safari bookmarks, folders, History, etc all sync seamlessly and automatically. - Shane Robinson via twhirl
Not the history I believe. Bookmarks and folders fer sure. - Steve Rubel
Do you think there will be an app for the on the new iPhone? I'd love a bookmarklet for FF on the 3G. - David Weiner
@David I use the current FF bookmarklet on the iPhone all the time. Works great. - Steve Rubel
I stand corrected. Steve, your right. saf - Shane Robinson via twhirl
I stand corrected. Steve, your right. Safari does NOT sync History. - Shane Robinson via twhirl
I use LaterLoop. I added the LaterLoop bookmarklet to Safari. When you sync the iPhone that bookmarklet still works for your LaterLoop account. When following gReader links to source sites, I LaterLoop them for easier reading on my desktop or even offline on my MBAir via FF and Gears. - Shane Robinson via twhirl
I use opera mini on my W610i in sync with my opera account. Shame i cant use the bookmarklet, sometimes i wonder why there is so much hype about this 3G Iphone,when most other phone at least in europe are all 3G,i'll wait for some cute android phone to move somewhere else ;-) - Ben Borges via fftogo

One of the best things about using Safari. Everything syncs across multiples Macs & iPhone. - Tom Wentworth
Thanks, Steve. Try searching for it and see how much junk pops up! - David Weiner
Steve, is your iPhone jailbroken? If not, I failed the bookmarklet on the iPhone IQ test. How do I drag it to the iPhone safari browser's toolbar? And once I pass that test, how do I highlight text to share? - Robert Seidman
I can't get it to work on the iphone yet ... trying to do it manually. - David Weiner
Hopefully one day Mozilla will make this possible with Weave. - Aaron Myers
Add it to the non-iPhone Safari (my pc version) then sync. The toolbar shortcuts show up in a bookmark folder - mcwflint
@Robert @David My iPhone is not jailbroken, I bookmarked it first on my Mac then sync'ed it to my iPhone. Can't select text to include however images work fine. - Steve Rubel
Steve, do you use Google History? If you are logged into Google on both iphone safari and your desktop (or any browser), it tracks both. - Rex Hammock
That makes sense ... trying it now ... I was baffled for a second... - David Weiner
Testing that functionality now on my BB curve with Opera Mini 4.1 and the full browser - Christian Anderson

How do you Take and Organize Notes?
15 hours ago - via Reshare - Link
I am always fascinated by this discussion. Don't ask me why. - Steve Rubel
Evernote all the way. - Stelian Iancu
I can't get into Evernote. Reason - my life is centralized with Google. - Steve Rubel
selective photographic memory. Strangely, I can never find my keys - Robert Seidman
OneNote at work and when I'm in Vista. - Pete Gilbert
I put pretty much everything into Yojimbo for storage and retrieval and use OmniFocus for GTD. - Shane Robinson via twhirl
textedit on the mac. KISS (keep it simple stupid) and link to things on web - Noah David Simon
Evernote is really awesome for its ability to read words in photos. But my digital life over the past few years is already in Yojimbo. Trying to integrate Evernote slowly. - Shane Robinson via twhirl
Notepad. - Mike Lewis
I mainly use Google Docs for my notes, which is extremely handy. - possible248
Switched to Evernote for note-taking on my mac last year and never looked back. It's really an incredible app. Would love to see them take the image-recognition capability to the next level though and actually add the ability to output text from images AS text. (Right now you can only search terms that appear in business card snaps etc.) - Daniel Smith via twhirl
Textpad, simple text files, and dtSearch or Examine32 to instantly find and retrieve old notes. - Sean McBride
Pen and paper... e.g., my http://twitter.com/pigeek background - pigeek
Seriously, pads of graph paper then xfer to OneNote if it's critical - Cheryl Allin
I use evernote as well. I like how I can sync with my phone. - Devin Anderson via fftogo
I use Notepad or good old pen and paper. I like writing things down. I have a work journal of sorts - putting pen to paper helps me commit items to memory. Just checked out evernote though, gonna try that one... - Sonciary Honnoll
Tinderbox for general note taking. MindManager for brainstorming and meeting notes. Evernote for collecting things from other sources. - Jack Baty
I used tiddlywiki for a while - in the process of switching to Evernote. - David Worrell

sanity? - Fred Grott
Maybe he's spending more time on FF and other social apps then blogging? Making videos? Spending time with family? Just a couple guesses. - Larry Kless via twhirl
nothing... - Josue Salazar
FriendFeed - Bwana McCall
nothing. it's only one measure of influence and I see Robert on TechMeme fairly often. - Alex Hammer
Think that means he's carrying the water, conversation wise, for a lot of bloggers. - Christian Anderson via fftogo
That it is the 4th of July? - Mark Dykeman
the end of the blogosphere as we know it - Steven Hodson
Is it possible to transcend the A List? Perhaps he's now on a higher plane of existence, blogging wise. - Todd McKinney
It means he is spending more time here, Qik, FastCompany.tv and on Twitter. - Steve Rubel
Blogging is so 2007? I agree with S Rubel. - Russellreno
Gabe's tweaking ?? :) - Charlie Anzman
@Steve. Totally agree. - Dave Martin
It means his style of blogging has changed - he in many ways *is* the blog - the things he does and uses are the technologies to watch. - Jesse Stay
Apocalypse? - Andy Wibbels
The enormously famous and powerful don't blog. What percent of Davos alumni blog? It's not how they manage their reputations and celebrity. - Phil Wolff via Alert Thingy
that means FastCompany.tv became one of permanent sponsors - open your eyes - silpol
Louis - on an unrelated note, I am looking forward to see your athleticsnation.com rank on ballbug's leaderboard. - Atul Arora
Atul, AthleticsNation is run by Tyler Bleszinski. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A... (I am just there to help) - Louis Gray
It means I haven't been playing the game lately. I've been doing crappy blogging and spending almost all of my extra time on FriendFeed. - Robert Scoble
It also is interesting that we went to Washington DC, got some remarkable interviews, none of which have been on Techmeme yet. But here on FriendFeed they got lots of praise and discussion going. I could get on Techmeme, though, by writing something idiotic with some sensationalist headline that would get lots of bloggers to link to it. - Robert Scoble
I ONLY bring this up because Robert mentioned DC...but yeah...I mean hell, you could have sat down and done an entire interview - bringing your community's questions to people really in charge in DC from reps to senators to oh, heck, I don't know... Presidential candidates...and I bet ya techmeme wouldn't notice. Of course they'd be ALL OVER 'written' responses to other blogs. But some big old video exclusive...yeah, they would ignore that. ....lol. - Erin Kotecki Vest
Can't make the big bucks on Friendfeed, Robert, as much I like your activity on here. Don't want to see you relegated to some job that will keep you away from all this madness - Bjorn Tipling
Bjorn: you might be surprised. Companies want to get close to early adopters. Companies are sponsoring our shows not because we have large audiences but because we have early adopters and influencers. Of course FastCompany.tv is advertising on Techmeme, but mostly that's just me rewarding Gabe for adding a lot of value to my life over past few years. - Robert Scoble
"I could get on Techmeme, though, by writing something idiotic with some sensationalist headline that would get lots of bloggers to link to it." Scoble, you've hit the nail on the head. Life's too short for that. - Duncan Riley
That makes you a better man, mr Riley - Bjorn Tipling
I wrote my thoughts up here: http://scobleizer.com/2008/07/... - Robert Scoble
the end is here...;) - Jeremiah Owyang
I'm not really getting Roberts comments (and Duncan's either). Are you saying that it's not the Techmeme isn't linking to you, it's that you don't care about Techmeme? That before, you were creating content to specifically self-promote via that channel, but now you are getting paid for media that is based on early adopters and influencers and your personal brand marketing strategies have changed? Just wondering. - leigh himel
Leigh: the #1 way to get onto TechMeme is to talk about what's already on TechMeme. Note that my "waiting in line for iPhone is glorious" article is already at the top of TechMeme. How did that happen? I saw a headline on Techmeme, and wrote about it, but added something new. Those get onto Techmeme a LOT easier than some original thought that brings more value. So, if I stop reading Techmeme, or caring about it, yes, that TOTALLY makes it less likely I'll get onto it. - Robert Scoble
Being linked to a meme headline doesn't count in the leader board standings. So sure it would get you onto Techmeme but wouldn't affect your top 100 position. - leigh himel
He's back on the list #98. - Steve Rubel
Extremely interesting conversations going on here. If I had to choose between being entertained or growing/learning - I'd definitely pick the latter. - Sonciary Honnoll
I might add it's fun if you can accomplish both at the same time. :) - Sonciary Honnoll

Comet Between Fireworks and Lightning
17 hours ago - via Reshare - Link
This will be a photograph in the top 10 of many future lists. - Andrew Baron
Explanation: "In January 2007, people from Perth, Australia gathered on a local beach to watch a sky light up with delights near and far. Nearby, fireworks exploded as part of Australia Day celebrations. On the far right, lightning from a thunderstorm flashed in the distance. Near the image center, though, seen through clouds, was the most unusual sight of all: Comet McNaught. The photogenic comet was so bright that it even remained visible though the din of Earthly flashes. Comet McNaught has now returned to the outer Solar System and is now only visible with a large telescope. The above image is actually a three photograph panorama digitally processed to reduce red reflections from the exploding firework." - Andrew Baron
wow! - امین

Wow, 153 people 'liked this" so far and almost 30 comments. - Andrew Baron
Absolutely incredible shot! Then again some of the best shots on the web come from NASA, National Geographic, Discovery and, of course, Hawk :) - Charlie Anzman
Not to be too cynical but that shot seems to good to be true -- I wonder if there is more processing going on than the text seems to admit. - Brian Sullivan
I'm enamored with that lightning. - Jason Toney
ahhh good one - Dobromir Hadzhiev
I'm going to side with Brian here. What is right: Comet McNaught was that bright in WA (I use to live there), but I checked my attempted pics, they predate this by over a week. I'm sure the comet was only that bright for less than a week. Second, the main Australia Day fireworks occur in Perth City...which isn't near a beach . Maybe it's Leighton Beach with Fremantle to the left...but it doesn't seem right. I did check the weather records though, there was a storm that night, and it's in the right direction - Duncan Riley
I do hope it is real though...and I forgot how wonderful the environment there is - Duncan Riley
Now the wallpaper on my iMac - Adam Helweh
Duncan, last year both Fremantle and I believe Hillarys held their own fireworks for Australia Day. I myself was trying to guess the location this morning. Being a regular on Leighton beach though it doesn't look familiar so I was thinking it may have been taken to the north of Hillarys. It also made me very nostalgic for Perth :) - Penny
wow, just wow - Mark Douglass
Amazing shot! - Timo Heuer

How do you Take and Organize Notes?
yesterday at 1:16 am - Link
Evernote is nice but the OCR features needs work plus I'm not impressed with the plans. Once I found out about Together from http://reinventedsoftware.com/... I haven't used Evernote since. It has potential but it has a way to go. - Chris Rodgers
@Chris I would also like to hear what you to say about the security of these services. If everything is moving up to the cloud so to speak. How can I really trust services like Evernote to keep my data secure from data loss or even data theft? This is something I've been really thinking about for a while. And in this case is why I went to a desktop app like Together. - Chris Rodgers
Off topic, but I have to mention it - Its impossible to reach your blog Chris, "Error establishing a database connection" - robert sørensen via twhirl
Skitch, skitch, skitch...heck Skitch has got to be the baddest desktop app of the year. - Zee from WeDoCreative
I find that Gmail works just as well, though with less organization. The upside is significantly more space, great search capes and offline client via IMAP. - Steve Rubel
most of my notes are in regards to what I am doing at the moment, so I just jot them down in quickbooks online, which I use to keep track of my billing. Other than that, I regret to say my company has a sharepoint site. - Tim Wright
I use a personal wiki called TiddlyWiki. It's a self-contained wiki in a single html file that I carry around on a USB stick (with backups to my main system frequently). I allows a lot of tagging and has decent search capability. I also use this as my todo journal for work so I can always go back in time to see what I was doing at a given point in time. - Bryan Hunter via twhirl
A Moleskine and a black Pilot G2 pen. - Cecily Walker
Agreed, I am a big fan of Evernote. Together is nice, but I like that i can sync Evernote against both my Mac and PC. - Scott Watermasysk
"A Moleskine and a black Pilot G2 pen"--you are speaking my language, those are my exact tools. - Kyle Hebert
anyone experienced with google notebooks? - Trixie Ferguson Gray
I use MS OneNote. I like the folders and notebooks and the pages are whatever size you need them to be. I like being able to put notes anywhere on the page. I use the clipping tool to catch a shot of anything that pops up on the screen that I may need later. I just started trying out Zotero, a FF add-on, for research notes. - Maggie Longshore via twhirl
OneNote w/ UMPC. I have my OneNote files synced w/ laptop and desktop with FolderShare. Works nice. - Rodfather
I use ballpoint pens and several notebooks or just plain paper with it. Since I also like to draw it is good thing to have those around everywhere. This reminds me of that I should start to take more notes of things in life. Also, I have found out that digital camera is great tool to make "notes" since you can take photo of item or store so you could remember it later when you view what you have taken. - Daniel Schildt
Currently alternating between Evernote and OneNote on a Tablet PC - Warner Crocker
I use onenote on my 2 laptops and my desktop, files stored on my Dlink Nas device. Evernote on my MB Proand windows machine. Then Foldershare to access everything from each machine. - Stephen Kennedy via twhirl
In a text editor, using Textile for markup. I also always carry a moleskine with me - Deepak
When using computer, I mostly just write notes to Gmail message and sent it to myself or save as draft. Could use Google Docs more but it's too slow compared to basic text mode of Gmail. - Daniel Schildt
Evernote is my new brain. The old one, she no work so good no more. - Marci Maleski
The irony of looking up notes in his spiral pad notebook to describe an online note taking app... - Ricardo Vidal
I use my Livescribe Pulse Smartpen (http://livescribe.com) most of the time, and Evernote if I'm near a computer. The Pulse pen is awesome, I highly recommend it to anyone that needs to take notes on a regular
