Yes please, can we have friend feed show up like the old design?

Is simpler integration/aggregation of users' OTHER social media in the cards?
- Dave Roth
it would be nice to be able to cut and paste an email address from a contact rather than have to retype it in every time.
- Thomas Hawk
when are they going to fix the messaging features - private message handling is not great in facebook.
- Morgan
When will FB allow users to export their own attention stream? (ie the newsfeed about them)
- Sean Ammirati
ask them when will they change their stupid TOS to stop being so unethical
- Marcos Marado
their notes/blogging platform is very old skool. when will that be upgraded to allow import of photos,video,etc..?
- Randy Ksar
Why do something like Connect when there things like OpenSocial and OAuth that do the same? I understand not using OpenSocial, but OAuth is a fairly generic authentication/authorization standard. Do we really need another proprietary one?
- Rob Diana
Why can't I only see those people that I have not sent a fan page or group invite too? Why can't I segment by network on that screen like I can for an application invite?

i don't follow Facebook stuff closely, so maybe this has been answered ... offhand, i'd be interested in whether there's any plan to adapt Facebook policy for international markets (ie, allowing greater anonymity in Japan), and if not, what other plans they might have to overcome that sort of hurdle (if any).

I second the Firefox 3 problems. Links on the new layout die more than half the time.
- Sean O
Are they planning on giving more importance to video distribution on the platform?
- Xavier Vespa
I would want to know how users could export more of their personal information to make backup of it.
- Daniel Schildt
And yes, they need to change TOS so they don't own every photo people add to their profiles.
- Daniel Schildt
They should also fix chat and add support fox visible logs for it (or option to avoid logging) like Google does with Gtalk inside Gmail.
- Daniel Schildt
Can we expect OpenId kind of features in the future? Can they also be used by third party websites that have nothing to do with facebook?
- Corné Wielemaker
Ask them also if they would do mindmap styled diagram that would show your connections and how each of them are connected to other people you know. Some sort of interactivity in that (if made with JavaScript or Flash) could allow quite great learning experience as you could find out much easier who knows who. There are some third party apps that do that kind of stuff, but I don't personally trust them that much.
- Daniel Schildt
a) how long will they keep the "classic" design available and b) how many people are choosing the new design?
- Laura Norvig
Ask why Facebook Mobile doesn't support T-Mobile.
- Jeff Lopes
When they finalize transfer of people to new design and how long they keep the old one around? Does old design make apps developement more difficult when compared to new one? What changes they recommend for people making add-ons for Facebook? Are apps going to have more reasonable privacy restrictions to not get access to all info?
- Daniel Schildt
livecast.com works good on my windows mobile for all you winmo users out there
- Tyler Gillies
Does the new design increase or decrease traffic to applications?
- Jamie Ginsberg
How could users add more customized fields to their info tab in profile (and would that make Facebook more bloated)?
- Daniel Schildt
do they plan on allowing video streaming etc in the future AND will they come out with their own FacebookIM client for the desktop
- Travis Cooper
When will they add photo commenting (and viewing of photo comments) to the iphone and mobile web interfaces?
- Andrew Fielding
Can you ask their Chief Privacy Officer to take phone calls from reporters?
- Andrew Feinberg
Why does their site degrade to a blank page when javascript is turned off?
- Brandon Titus
I hate being held hostage in an email thread listening to unending chatter from people I don't know and don't care to know. And can the apps under "Boxes" be made collapsible? It's like a dumping ground for useless apps now, I hardly go there. I keep those apps for peeps who can't live a day without poking me. And yeah, the blogging feature needs a major upgrade. Wait, their TOS gives them rights to my profile pictures? What the...

Japanese browser maker takes on IE, Firefox - http://www.computerworld.com/action...
I can't believe that it is even popular anywhere in the world. It looks like a pile of garbage. They mention on their site "Perfect pages with the Industry-Standard Trident Engine". I guess perfection is Windows only then? I'm not sure that 'Perfect' is the correct word to use when describing the Trident rendering engine.

i agree. looks like mud. why would they even cover something like this.

Ha IE looks better than that.

For PHP, CSS, HTML, etc, I use Panic's Coda. For everything else, I usually find myself sshing into the server and using vim. Nearly all of my web development revolves around PHP, database administration, and server administration.
- Mark Trapp
I use Eclipse for Java... I'd prefer IntelliJ, but then it's not free, so. For pretty much everything else I use Gedit (woo Linux) hacked up with some sake tasks to make development easier.

From time to time I have used Dreamweaver mostly because of it's autocomplete but use many different tools depending on where I work.

My time is split between Textmate, Vi and Flex Builder. I enjoy using Textmate and Vi. If I could, I'd rather not use Flex Builder/Eclipse.

I especially like the way it's spelled differently on every restaurant menu. Tao, Tsao, Jao, Joe, etc. It's still good, though.

Yeah, I have always found that (variant spellings) a little weird, since it more or less seems to be the same sort of chicken.

Argh. Darn twitter auto reply. Just replied to myself on twitter.
- Phil Crissman
I sometimes reply to myself by accident, too. It's something I'd like -- that is, for FriendFeed to somehow add the ability to reply to someone else via twitterback. Right now I have to copy/paste and post separately.

Peter Fleck liked this
It's driving me nuts. Real spotty. I'm at the point now where I'm seriously considering going to a different service.
- Tommy Morgan
I'm not sure there is an alternative yet. Of what's available, I'm liking FriendFeed best, but it does lack the spartan simplicity that made twitter attractive in the first place. That's not really a criticism of FF, but it's not quite the same.
- Phil Crissman
I'm really enjoying FF so far... the multi-service mashups are nearly too much, but I think a good client could really work wonders for it.
- Jason Alexander
from Alert Thingy
yeah, it's horrible. i'm mostly using friendfeed now
- Travis Cooper
Had this discussion with Kevin (@smithk14) earlier today - the alternatives are out there. If it were just the functionality everybody'd be on jaiku or pownce by now, from what I can see.
- Tommy Morgan
I tried Pownce for a bit. If anyone here is using it, I'm http://pownce.com/philcrissman. Same nick on jaiku, though I use that even less...
- Phil Crissman
Phil, try Friendfeed via Twhirl. It almost has the twitter simplicity.
- Peter Fleck
I'll give it another whirl (no pun int... okay, I can't say that)... but I've found that AIR apps seem to steal a LOT of memory over time when left on. Is that just me?
- Phil Crissman
That has been a problem. I should check my system and see. I run it on a Mac.
- Peter Fleck
I run Mac at home, XP at work; feels like I've seen the problem with AIR apps on both machines. Still, maybe you just expect to restart the app once in awhile. Like Windows 95. :-)

Noting: most of the people I know on Facebook, I already knew offline. On Twitter, the opposite is true. Typical?

I have read some saying they personally know their connections on Twitter; must have been a deliberate decision on their part.

Friend-feed beef: I don't like the way they handle chronology. I usually scan down the list until I see something I've seen before... now I can't be sure that I've seen all the latest stuff by following that approach.
yeah, that's a problem. if you comment etc on something, or someone responds, it puts it back up at the top.. not sure that's always a good idea. maybe have a background color change or something... not sure..
- Travis Cooper
Another beef: I don't care what people I don't know say about what other people I don't know say. If a friend of mine comments on something, great, add it. Don't promote it to the top every time any other person comments on it, though. Or at least give me the option.
