Does this really work on a technology blog? I'd be suspect if the post were incomplete but I'm going to give it a try.

It's amazing how pervasive Twitter's downtime has become.
- Ivan Stegic
Yeah. The downtime is as much a meme as the service :P
- Brad McCrorey
Ouch, a "Dear @John" tweet. That's harsh! ;-)
- Jim Stanger
Ha, close to the truth in some cases, heh

I agree. I am very happy with Twitter. Even if it does go down alot. But they are getting better. I haven't seen twitter down all week

Over the last month, I have tended to use Twitter less. During the last Lakers-Celtics game, for example, I was in the NBA Finals FriendFeed room. Ironic, since I spent good chunks of the World Series on Twitter.

I got the Twitterback. nice one, Ana.
- David Vasileff
A small bug: after logging into Twitter as required, clicking “change user” brings up an Ajax popup with a mistaken message: “You are currently logged in to Twitter as paultoo”. I just confirmed i did not tweet as Paultoo.
- John Lam
Interesting. Interesting indeed.
- Bwana ☠
I would say this was a blazing fast feature implementation along with new service additions.
- Turker Keskinpala
John, the 'paultoo' display bug should be fixed. Sorry about that -- the html had it hard coded and of course it looked right to me :)
- Paul Buchheit
still not sure how this works, though :(

Once again, you guys have responded to user feature requests with great speed. I assume comment "postback" (you can have that, lol) will soon be enabled for other services too? Soon there will be no need to leave friendfeed other than to find new material to share here. Keep up the good work y'all.
- Slappy Line
I wonder, does commenting on blogs entries in FriendFeed also post the comments into the blog post itself? Let's try this.
- Christopher Yeo
Christopher, if there's an api to do that we'll definitely add it to the list.
- Paul Buchheit
@slippery Lane .. now if we can just get 'Like' for comments and nested threading I think most would be really happy camper and the FF team could take .. hmmm .. a couple of hours off to themselves for their 20% projects <snicker>
- Steven Hodson
@Paul .. with Disqus you can reply to comments via email so I imagine something should be able to be worked out for that
- Steven Hodson
excellent...
- don loeb
Paul, no apology needed. I'm happy to help, especially against bugs hard-coded to be invisible to yourself but visible to everyone else. :-)
- John Lam
@Paul, thanks for your comment about blog APIs. Does that mean the FF team is looking into auto posting of blog comments into Blogger (assuming that the APIs for that is available)?
- Christopher Yeo
thanks guys

FF had a fast turn on integrating user comments, hurrah!

I like this. But I wonder if this is going to reduce Pownce usage?

what happens when i edit a twittered comment?
- Alex Gawley
Nice. You guys just keep listening to your users! In that spirit, I would like FF to read all my email and write my blog posts. Sound good? ; )
- Carla Thompson
I would also like FF to layout my clothes in the morning, make my breakfast and drive me to work. Come on, Kevin... Make it so! :-)
- Chris Reed
@Steven Hodson: Yeah, in fact I think you and I (and others) have mentioned similar things all over ff. Of course, my comments don't seem to get noticed by Paul and the gang, when the guy after me says the same thing so much more concisely! :-)
- Slappy Line
@slippery lane .. ya but then we're not Fred Wilson either are we :)
- Steven Hodson
Dozens of people have requested "Like" for comments; since we don't have it yet, I assume it'd require a schema change or something. Or maybe it's that Jim doesn't like me anymore :)
- ௸ (k2g)
Liking comments is technically simple, but it deserves some careful consideration on the UI side. Every feature has a very real cost in terms of added complexity.
- Paul Buchheit
@Paul - I can definitely appreciate the UI side of it especially when dealing with a limited canvas like web pages - but it is good to hear that you are thinking on it at least
- Steven Hodson
Me, I'd put a drop arrow by the comment icon or commenter name for voting on a specific comment (allows for future per-comment expansion too). Then I'd hide the vote count and voter names in the "Show n more comments" link. Although to be honest, if I was doing it, it would probably never work seeing as how I'm much better at metalworking than web design.
- Slappy Line
fantastic, thx

I often end up seeing the reply twice (once as a comment, once as a Twitter), can the duplicate somehow be quashed?

Wow... I can't believe he just blew up like that. It doesn't look like you were attacking him at all and all of a sudden he just comes after you.

It's not too big a deal. He can have "last word" here. He blew up on Twitter as well. http://twitter.com/duncanriley
- Louis Gray
The most amusing part is being mentioned as if I positioned as an A-Lister. Anybody who has talked to me or traded e-mails knows I know my place. But... seriously... I'm not engaging here.
- Louis Gray
LOL. Someone needs a hug. If that's what he calls someone "coming after him", I'd hate to see someone really give him some nasty criticism. I hope he lightens up and realizes his overreaction.
- Bwana ☠
Calling you Louise as an insult was a throwback to Jim Rome-Jim Everett. What year is it again? Resorting to LCD insults, nice. Remember this guy called Doris Lessing's comments "the ditherings of an ignorant old woman".

Holy cow. Talk about temper tantrum. Personally, I'd say *his* article is about as "useful as tits on a bull"

lol: "That’s right, I forgot, I’m a complete retard." Ironically, I think his post has just welcomed you permanently to the A-list.
- j1m
Also there are amusing comments, like "Grow up, you immature, ill tempered idiot. You sound like an 5 year old stamping his feet, throwing a tantrum who has just discovered swearing."
- j1m
Not the kind of insight you'll expect from a person who claim to blog for a "bloody long time".

Louis, just wondering, are you doing PR for Friendfeed?
- Erick Schonfeld
heh I don't agree with you there Louis... the techcrunch I've read is wrong most of the time, specially this Duncan fellow.
- Mario Romero
If he's not doing PR, he should be. I dismissed FriendFeed just as fast as Duncan until I read his blog post about it.
- Bwana ☠
@Erick, no. My LinkedIn profile is here: http://www.linkedin.com/profile..., but I firewall work and the blog, so they should be out of it. (please)
- Louis Gray
He responded to my comment on his blog: "his whole tone was Duncan is an idiot and it does these things and its wonderful because I say so. If you can see that you're either up his arse so far the sun isn't shining, or you need some remedial reading lessons." I think he means "can't" in that second sentence.
- Brandon Titus
I wish Duncan would make all his TechCrunch posts this colorful.
- Jess Lee
@Jess, sure... just keep me out of it! :-)
- Louis Gray
It's an odd discussion. One party is saying others who don't like Friendfeed should like it. The other party replies that those who do like Friendfeed shouldn't. Why not just let those who like it use it and let those who don't like it, well, not use it. E.g. I never used Twitter or a (traditional) feed reader and even when others love it, if it's not for me why should anyone worry....

- Philipp Lenssen
Wow, is there nothing Duncan likes, or do I just keep seeing is negative posts? :(
- Paula Hawk
I agree with one of his points though: conversation at the source isn't enhanced by friendfeed. Certainly it's a different use case, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be a part of the aggregator. By using APIs, SocialThing is actually able to push comments/replies/likes back to the sources. Then you can have both conversations with friends and with the public. What's yet to be seen though is a service which merges both conversations in a meaningful way.
- taj
Sorry to "get off topic," as it were, but this discussion has revealed a drawback in FriendFeed. When Louis shared this item, a ton of discussion took place, yet (last I checked) there was hardly any discussion at the FriendFeed link to the post in Duncan Riley's own feed. http://friendfeed.com/e... Louis had to go to that entry and manually link to this entry, since FriendFeed didn't automatically relate the two.
- Ontario Emperor
@Ontario_Emperor I don't know if that's a drawback, I don't think FriendFeed would have any problem associating the posts, this is just the way the comment communities work on FriendFeed (I think it's pretty cool). We're discussing with Louis his shared item, which happens to be Duncan's post which also has its own comment thread for his friend circle.
- Mario Romero
With FriendFeed's introduction of search capability, this issue is effectively solved. Try a search for the words more hyped yawn.

@doshdosh I like FriendFeed. Now all my friends have a new way to spam me (and me in return!)
Paula Hawk, Sue Murphy, Rick Castello and Bwana ☠ liked this
I found this usage of "spam" as odd. To me "spam" is an unsolicited, unwanted piece of junk message. This may just be a terminology thing on my part. But if I think someone is "spamming" me using Twitter, FriendFeed, or any of the other services I use, I remove the spammer from my circle of friends.
- Seek Ground
Here I can follow you Robert, on Twitter, there are way too many conversations to track using that God forsaken @reply.
- Bwana ☠
I agree. People say I spam on Twitter because I post too often.
- Robert Scoble
@Scobleizer - I've guess that's my problem with the terminology. I've never agreed with the "people" you are referring to. Why do they follow you if they don't like what you have to say?

FriendFeed is totally awesome.... My favorite aggregator... so far.. :)

I seriously don't understand why people complain about too many tweets. There is something called unfollow if the tweets piss people off.

People that are very active have a lot to twitter about. I like the large amount of updates, it's easy to scroll down past any if needed.

I detest what Suzemuse is saying about the Lacy flareup: "Conflict is a negative force that causes defensiveness, overactive egos and hurt feelings. In extreme cases, it causes wars." The fact is that there are moral issues of might versus right. .. and there's nothing wrong with conflict. It is heathly. If there are serious issues, fruitless wars are more likely to result from...

Bill, my reading of her suggestion is more like "don't make it personal", which seems pretty reasonable. Once people feel that they are being personally attacked, they tend to become irrational and often hostile, and so productive debate becomes impossible.
- Paul Buchheit
Paul, good point. I don't disagree with that aspect (don't get personal). However, as someone who wishes fair treatment for all (women, minorities, etc.), it's only fair to point out that Ms. Lacy seemed to be playing the ancient sex role of cute chatty female instead of intelligent interviewer. I wasn't there. However if what many claim was true, this set of circumstances demands that her performance be called out. It seems impossible to do that without doing what some will call making it personal.
