That's wine-soaked shitake and red onion, on a hickory smoked turkey patty covered in pepperjack & sharp cheddar, on a sesame seed buN (LOL @Amanda) slathered in garlic tahini. My inspiration: http://friendfeed.com/e...
- Admiral Anika
Holy shit.
- Mike Nayyar
I don't eat ketchup when ranch dressing is around so that is what in the spoon.
- Admiral Anika
OMG and the French fries are perfect; crispy on the outside, creamy inside. I fucking rock.
- Admiral Anika
Damn, looks good! Esp with the avo
- Mo Kargas
yum yum yum. Agree with Mo on the avo :)
- Ms Penny Claus
Never used tahini on a burger before, but great googamooga, this is downright delicious. I think I wet my pants in excitement.
- Admiral Anika
i'll start with the fries!
- Andy Sternberg
I'd have to leave off the shitake and onion, but other than that, sounds DELISH.
- Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
Food inhaled. Mama happy. Should have passed the gross Pacifio over for a red wine, but the food was delish!

Oooh proper thick cut chips, yum! Pass the salt n vinegar

The Hotties of FriendFeed (My FF Crushes)

By no means a complete list. :D
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
SCREW YOU HAGGIS... I wax me legs, I spend hours in the hairdressers and weeks doing my makeup for you... YOU BASTARD... I HATE YOU... *runs off sobbing*
- Johnny Worthington
Oh I have you in another list Johnny: Crossdressing Australians of FF.
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Well hey thanks!
- Brandy Lea
Did I say I wear a dress? Oh wait, yeah I have in the 25 Things
- Johnny Worthington
*grabs popcorn*

Well I saw the Bra, so I only guessed at the rest of the ensemble.
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
... one needs support for one man-tits or one will get a sore back... HEY! EYES UP HERE BUDDY!
- Johnny Worthington
You certainly grabbed many of them
- RAPatton
I should have been there.
- Nation Hahn
lol
- Cee Bee
Aww, I hope I'm not offending anyone by not including them on the list. Many times I just go by the avatar and if it's a cartoon or something it's hard to tell and I won't put on here, and also these are just *my* personal tastes. Everyone has different types!
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Any woman with the brass to be on FF is a hottie in my book.
- Chris Baskind
Wow - that'd be a drag to be on a list like that. Still, as I always say, if you want to get a lot of followers get a hot chick avatar. It's sad but it's iJustine. True! I mean true. It's sad but it's true.
- Ciaoenrico
++ Chris!

Lindsay and Sarah I will agree with however I will not like this cause there is no MONA!

Happy to see everyone there, a few in particular ;)
- Timothy Griffin
I'd hide it too, if my sense of fairness didn't kick in...So these are just women? Where are the MALE hotties of FF. :p ;)
- Helen Sventitsky
The picture is too small to see. Am I on it?
- Martha
@Helen Start up the Male Hotties list yourself! I find men hairy and repulsive. :D
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
LOL MARTHA!!
- Mona Nomura
I wonder... Would I be on the male hotties list? :p
- Chris, Taskerrific Guy
hahahaha.... when's the calendar coming out?
- Thomas Hawk
@Thomas hahahaha
- Shevonne
Ciaoenrico I kinda take offense to that. My avatar is me, it's my face and I shared it on FF after a LOT of thought about it (plus some gender confusion, but that's another story). Because a woman might be considered attractive she *shouldn't* user her face as an avatar otherwise she's just trying to get followers? Bull crap, and sexist to boot.
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
@Tina +++++
- Shevonne
@Sean, I couldn't agree more. :D Tina, YAY!
- Helen Sventitsky
Agreed, Tina. That certainly wasn't the point of this list - it was merely a way to point out all of my FF crushes at once. I hope no one takes offense to it. :(
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
I'm offended....I wasn't on this effing list!!
- jamar78
Sean, I'm not offended, personally. I find it rather amusing. The title of this post, to me, however, seemed rather "definitive". YMMV. :D
- Helen Sventitsky
I mean my sis' made list sheesh!!
- jamar78
I think I'm due for a new picture. I've used the same one since joining.
- Rochelle
Rochelle, you had that other one, the B&W one of you smiling. That was great, too
- Josh Haley
Quite a collection. There should be a male list too but then that could lead to a match-making game and apps being developed and other memes ... and ... oh dear ...
- Amani
I'm not a crush, eh? :P
- Tamar Weinberg
@Amani is that what you wanted to talk to me about? Creating that app? haha
- Shevonne
We totally need a boys list, totally. And I'll pretend I'm not crying in a corner over here.
- Bec Rowe @d0tski
I don't know how I feel about this...
- Derrick
Dammit.. I'm about to delete this post. It was not my intention to hurt anyone's feelings. :(
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
I don't think it's a problem pointing out your crushes, hun. I think it's the fact that it's titled "The Hotties of FriendFeed" that can make people kind of uncomfy. That comes across as a direct judgment of peoples' looks, even though we know you didn't mean it that way.
- tinypants - Hagitha of FF
@Sean don't ever apologize for your actions.
- Shevonne
Okay, I think I understand.. Thanks Amanda.. I just updated the title, hopefully it will let everyone know that this is my own personal list, and by no means a judgement of anyone.
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
It's not my scene, but hey...whatevs. It just feels a little meat market-ish to me. People aren't avatars, and I know a couple on the list who wouldn't be proud of being reduced to a FF hottie on someone's list.
- Derrick
Sigh..
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
This whole thing spun out of control rapidly. Impressive.
- Mike Nayyar
Okay, I hope this is better: http://friendfeed.com/e...
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Derrick - But a lot of the stuff you post to the really gay room is pretty meat market-ish. Just because they're professional models it's okay to objectify them? We naturally objectify each other because we naturally are sexual creatures. I'm not offended by being on this list, but I don't like being objectified and I think what Haggis has done is a sweet gesture, not a gesture of blind testosterone rubbing one out.
- Mattie Kenny
Didn't anyone see me grab the popcorn earlier? That's your 1st clue.
- Josh Haley
I'm not offended at all btw :)
- Tamar Weinberg
Thx Matsie <3
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
LOL
- Pedram
Sean you created a monster didn't you....hehe
- jamar78
Ugh.. no kidding.. I guarantee this list will never be mentioned again outside of these posts. I think i'm gonna unplug for a while and let this all die down.
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
ok i just now read the whole thread damnit i always miss everything lol joel... ::shakes head:: u kno to some i'm not a lil sister lol ur so funny i luv u!
- Cardeen Martinez
don't let it get to you Sean....all that matters is that you had no malicious intent which you didn't
- jamar78
**blushes** - gee thanks. :) And go hide for a while, Sean... it'll all blow over.
- Jen (SquirrelGirl)
nice list, i have about half of these in a group called "sexy people"
- sean percival
Mattie, any pics I post in the Really Gay Room are A) *in* the Really Gay Room, and B) pictures culled from sites that are meat-marketish to begin with. I would never post pics of Scoble or Louis Gray and say, "oh these are guys I'd like to see naked". And I'm not knocking Sean. I freakin' love Sean. But I also know that there are women on the list who've worked hard at getting to where they are in life and in their careers and to be thought of as a pin-up on FF isn't their bag.
- Derrick
It's about time you chimed in Leather...LMAO...love it...haha
- jamar78
Leather Donut, Don't ever change! :)
- Michelle Martinez
I second her notion...hehe
- jamar78
I don't see how posting this in a room would make it any different a situation, Derrick. I don't think that Sean ever said he wanted to see any of the women on the list naked. Is that something I skipped over while scanning the comments? If he said that, then yes. This list is pretty lame. But being admired for your beauty isn't bad. Especially since (for me at least) being a hottie entails being incredibly intelligent and engaging.
- Mattie Kenny
Mattie, that's exactly what I consider a hottie. Attractiveness is only part of the factor. Intelligence, a sense of humor, and many other things go into that equation.
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
I see a potential calendar.
- Paul
Mattie, I'm not going to fight with you over this. If you want to split ends, say I'm a hypocrite, or engage in double standards, feel free. I don't care. Very simply, I know people who don't want to be referred to as hotties. By anyone. I see them on the list. I speak up. That's it. There are 50 people in the RGR, maybe 20 people see it regularly. That's a HUGE difference than the numbers of people who sub to the home feed. But you know what? Forget I even opened my mouth. Apparently I've become a prude...
- Derrick
That's not what I'm saying, Derrick. Now I understand what you meant by putting the photos up in the RGR versus what Haggis did. Did these women speak up for themselves and say they don't appreciate being called attractive?
- Mattie Kenny
<3 Derrick.. I appreciate what you are saying, and think it's very commendable that you are seeing this from an angle I didn't really see. I know you only have the best intentions with what you are saying. Please no more fighting over this..
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
I just happen to know them, Mattie. And I didn't say they didn't appreciate being called attractive. I said they, knowing them as I do, woudn't appreciate being culled up on a list and pointed out for the world to ogle.
- Derrick
Sean, you know how I feel about you bud, and I'm not putting you on blast. Consider my hands washed of it.
- Derrick
Mattie, how about you look at it from the flip side...those women who DIDN'T make the list and don't have the benefit of feeling all bubbly inside because they've been deemed "attractive"? It's all well and good when you're on the winning team, apparently.
- tinypants - Hagitha of FF
yeah Sean you are a good person....don't beat yourself up about it
- jamar78
Although you better take my sis' out this damn list!! hehe
- jamar78
Awesome post, Sean!
- George The Writer
Amanda - I don't think not being on the list deems you unattractive and I don't think Haggis is the be all end all of who is or is not attractive. Wow. I'm on the list. BFD. I don't feel or bubbly inside, nor did I take it very seriously. It didn't blip in my radar until I saw people taking major offense to Haggis having posted the list, in which case I looked at it & was surprised to see myself there. I'm not on any "team".
- Mattie Kenny
Haggis, I love the conversations you spawn... feel free to include me in future provocative topics. ~xxxooo~
- Far
I would like to state for the record, should there be a men's list...I would like to opt out. That is all, thank you.
- Christian (Simply X)
Ok gents, let's show the ladies how we roll. (and can someone email me that info ahead of time, so I look like I know what I'm doing?)

This list is approved, mainly because one certain hottie is the better half :) Sean, not only do you represent a great product, but also exceptional taste. Sir, I owe you a drink! ;)
- Matt Harwood

- Matthew DeVries
Ok I am not the brightest crayon in the box so I want to know how the hell do you see a list of people like that. I have different lists but where do I go to see all in just that one list?
- Brandy Lea
Brandy, you see this view when you go into one of your lists then select to Add/Remove friends.
- Kol Tregaskes
I think what Brandy is asking is if she can see someone else's list, which we can't. Haggis might have made a list that is friendfeed.com/list/hotties and he'll see it when he's logged in, but no one else would see it if they went to that same URL. He wouldn't even see it if he logged out and went to that URL.

Don't misunderstand what I mean. I mean I am thankful I didn't make the list period. PRAISE THE LORD :)
- Jeunelle Foster
We should have an Academy Award of FriendFeed or something. That I would have a long ass speech prepared telling everybody how I'd like to thank all the little people who were responsible for me winning that award and it should be sponsored by Mashable and FFundercats :)

Anyone read those ChildLife books? I loved them as a kid. I'd read encyclopedias, too, but not back-to-back. When I ran out of my books, I'd find my mother's, no matter where she hid them.

2. I was in the radio business for 30 years, both on-air and as a Programmer. It was fun.
- Chris Baskind
3. The proverbial half-filled glass is always full. Whether I'm paying attention to the half volume of liquid or air depends on the context.
- Chris Baskind
4. At one point, I was a postulant for Holy Orders in the Episcopal Church.
- Chris Baskind
5. I'm a Buddhist now. Surprise.

6. I really like bicycles. I have three in the house and three in the garage. The bike I rode in college is hanging from the rafters.
- Chris Baskind
7. I didn't finish college, but I still ride.

8. When I met Little Richard, he was wearing an open bathrobe and underpants.

- Chris Baskind
10. I'm a vegetarian. I'm not annoying about it.
- Chris Baskind
11. Anyone can live on fresh pita bread and hummus.

- Chris Baskind
13. My son, James, lives with me. He's sixteen.

- Chris Baskind
15. My worst childhood memories are of California brushfires. My best ones are of California horse ranches.
- Chris Baskind
16. I have problems recognizing actors from movie to movie. This is actually great, since it makes their characters more believeable.
- Chris Baskind
17. I managed to launder a college scholarship through my student bank account and buy my first new car. See #7.
- Chris Baskind
18. I helped develop an English language adaptation of a classical Japanese poetry form. It's similar to tanka, but more objective and better suited to the mechanics of our language.
- Chris Baskind
19. I'm comfortable addressing a crowd of any size. I wouldn't be as comfortable being *in* that crowd. Or being part of the "in" crowd, come to think of it.
- Chris Baskind
20. My earliest memory is being carried out of a burning apartment building. I was about 18 months old. Not long after that, JFK was assassinated. My mom explained things and told me to remember, so I did. I saw the smoke from the Watts riots and watched the first Moon landing live on TV.

Great list, Chris! Thanks for sharing. I fully support #'s 10 and 11. :-)

The Facebook Friendfeed app is not consistently updating the FB Wall. It has authorization to do so. Is this going to be fixed?
Noah David Simon, Carol Levesque, Steve Chou and 6 other people liked this
Facebook limits applications to 10 updates to your Facebook wall per day. If you're still having issues try visiting http://friendfeed.com/connect and/or remove and reinstall the Facebook application.
- Benjamin Golub
Ahh, I think I am running into the "10 updates to wall per day FB restriction". I just joined FF and was testing this functionality out this morning. So removing/re-installing the FB app (which I tried) won't do anything if I have already passed the "the 10 updates per day" restriction? Thanks for the feedback!!
- Kevin Whalen
That's correct.
- Benjamin Golub
Benjamin, I might have gone over 10 updates, but is it possible that the last one of the day arrived to FB and a previous one did not? Would it be possible to add a feature to choose which services send to the FB wall and which not to?
- Flavio
So do only FF messages post to the FB wall? Or will messages from other services (ex. Twitter) that post to FF also post to the FB wall?
- Kevin Whalen
All services go to FB (excepted those from FB itself). That is why I would like to choose: FB already imports Flickr, YouTube, Digg and more, so they are duplicated, while entries from FF or services not supported by FB might stay out as over quota.
- Flavio
I didn't see my twitter post on FF show up on my FB wall, but I think that's because I was already over the quota.
- Kevin Whalen
@Rodrigo: what application?
- Flavio
@Rodrigo: thanks, but I want my tweets to appear on the wall, not to update the FB status. The original twitter app used to do it but stopped long time ago.
- Flavio
Ben - I tried uninstalling the app, but now I can't find the option to reinstall it. Something about not having the right "Pages" whatever that means.
- Patrick Lightbody
Patrick: sometimes Facebook gets into a funny state after you uninstall an app where it thinks you still have it installed. Try visiting http://friendfeed.com/connect.
- Benjamin Golub
Just can't seem to get FF to post to the FB wall.
- Kevin Whalen
The FF tab in FB works great! The wall updates with FF posts are just sporadic.
- Kevin Whalen
I'm only getting 1 update a day to my wall. This kinda defeats the point of friendfeed. I put all my settings to allow posting big items automatically, and I've removed and readded friendfeed, but no luck. This sucks.
- Sean Straus
My tweets go through friend feed to post onto my facebook wall, and it has been working great, until today when it just stopped. The tweents are on my friend feed but not my fb wall. So i thought it might be the 10 post thing. except i tested it and posted the friend feed, and that DID post to my wall. when i twittered. it appeared on my friend feed but not my fb wall...
- Steven Keevil
This is still a problem. Fairly new to Facebook, added the FF app, got a updates from FF to FB, then they stopped. I have given all permissions, etc. I don't believe I'm close to a 10 item limit, I don't see 10 FF updates total for the past week on FB.
- Ken Gidley
I just tried the remove FF app/re-add it - I got at least one update that way, I'll see how long I keep getting updates.
- Ken Gidley
Facebook shut me down...oh my only 10 updates to my wall? My wall has crumbled....:(
- bcultral
And I'm again not seeing any of my FF posts on my Facebook wall. Very frustrating.
- Ken Gidley
Is anyone at FF working on this problem? I've tried removing/re-adding the FF app to facebook several times, it doesn't seem to work anymore at all - I never get anything on my wall from FF now.
- Ken Gidley
I found this post on Facebook - hopefully the bug fixes helped: http://www.facebook.com/apps...
- Ken Gidley
Not working again. It seems to work for a few days and then stops updating the wall altogether. Sigh.
- Ken Gidley
Mine gave up the ghost yet again a few weeks ago and stopped posting anything after only posting about 2-3 of more than 10 updates a day. I'm trying the offline access now but have little hope after it never really working over the course of almost a year.

I just imported a bunch of my latest Google Reader shares and they were all marked as "yesterday". This has happened before with other services. What's up with this bug?
Mathew™ one of a kind, Gavin, Tyson Key and 3 other people liked this
Just had it again, and it's been persistent for at least a couple of weeks. Why no attention from the FriendFeed staff?
- Voyagerfan5761
Did you force the GReader refresh in FF? When did you share the items in GReader? When were the items posted in GReader? The staff might need more info and I wouldn't complain, I'm sure they are very busy chaps. :-) Generally things coming into FF slowly is down to that particular service, e.g. Digg is slow and sometime Twitter is. I find my GReader stuff comes into FF hours. even a day after I share them, so I've started forcing the refresh manually.
- Kol Tregaskes
I haven't had any slow imports with Reader, but Flickr is always about a day or two slow for me. There are probably way too many factors to be able to "blame" someone.
- Mitch
@Kol: I forced the refresh, and the items were posted in Reader minutes before the import.
- Voyagerfan5761
Same problem again a minute or so ago.
- Voyagerfan5761
This seems to be happening on manual refreshes only. But it's still happening.
- Voyagerfan5761
It just happened to me with an auto-refresh. Guess it's not constrained. How is this not even acknowledged by the devs?
- Voyagerfan5761
And again this evening. Seems to happen on the first import, manual or automatic, of a given period of n hours where 2<n<20.
- Voyagerfan5761
from fftogo
Bump. Again. This is still happening, six months later, with no acknowledgement whatsoever from FriendFeed's employees. Am I the only one experiencing this or something?
- Voyagerfan5761
Is it dependent on the published date/time of the item rather than the shared date/time?
- Mitch
No, items from GReader are usually imported with the timestamp set to when FriendFeed picked them up. Items from as long ago as a month still should show up as the date they were picked up.

THE REMOTE SETTLEMENT of Burketown, in Australia’s northern Queensland, is not the sort of place you’d expect people to travel thousands of miles to visit. With a population of just 178, Burketown sits in one of Australia’s most remote shires. But every September and October, a small group of individuals journey from all corners of the country for the appearance of a remarkable and dramatic cloud called the Morning Glory. Clouds don’t usually have names, nor are they normally linked to a particular location, but then the Morning Glory is no normal cloud.

#8 - I can bend the top of my thumb back at an almost 90 degree angle to the rest of it. I call it “Hitchhiker’s Thumb” and it totally freaks Tad out.
- Fa La La La Lindsay
from Bookmarklet
Cool. .Same here. Never knew it had a name though.
- Santa CW™
I don't know if it's officially called that... that's just what I've always called it!
- Fa La La La Lindsay
Oh god - why did you post that pic? HIDE!!!
- Chrimmus Tad
Put me down for font junkie/typography aficionado as well.
- teleken
@Spidra, I'm flat footed because of it. My ankles (especially my right ankle which I sprained as a teenager) look like they stick way too far out unless I make a conscious effort to stand on the edge of my foot. My son has inherited this from me too, I believe... unfortunate for him, but maybe good protection if the draft is reinstated!
- Fa La La La Lindsay
Is this a meme thing? LMAO
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
@Igor - Mona did on on Friday... Then she tagged some people in Facebook to do theirs... She didn't tag me (:P Mona!!!!), but I did it anyway...
- Fa La La La Lindsay
Lindsay - can I have some Girl Scout Cookies, please? ;)
- Mona Nomura
Enjoyed reading yours. I liked 25 I find small dogs dressed up in clothes/costumes very entertaining. I do not think I will do mine. It will be X-rated! LMAO
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
There's a tag limit! So I keep removing and adding, removing and adding people. :(
- Mona Nomura
Funny! I'm flat footed too and can twist my thumb backwards.
- Jauder Ho
I can do the thumb thing too http://tr.im/9xrl (post-processed just to freak Tad out a little more, and because the quality was crap)
- xero
@Spidra - Yeah, I read your list before I did mine... gave me inspiration for a few of mine. :)
- Fa La La La Lindsay
@Mona - I figured you'd get around to me eventually. Just giving you a hard time. You're still my bud! :)
- Fa La La La Lindsay
I have hitchhikers thumbs also
- RAPatton
My left thumb goes way back (I'm talking 45 degrees), but my right one not so much--one hitchhikers thumb here....
- Kelly W.
I can do that too, except fully 90 degrees, and probably a bit more! I have a similar thing if I apply a little pressure to any of my fingers, the outer joint just bends backwards. =p
- Daniel Bruce
Here's my thumb: http://friendfeed.com/e...

Nice, Daniel! :)

How am I just now seeing this? Awesome, Lindsay. I love fonts too. It's the writer in me. Gah, I freakin' love you and Tad. :)

Thanks, Derrick!! I enjoyed your list too. :) Are you in the Typography room yet? http://friendfeed.com/rooms...

Sweet, pea!! :)
- Fa La La La Lindsay
Ditto on Mona, this list sounds a lot like me, too. I'm actually *working* on mine, found a White Castle receipt in my car and started writing it :-)
- mandyvan
LOL @ mandyvan! You should just scan in the receipt when you're done. Then you'd cover the handwriting meme too!

What companies should have an iPhone app, but don't? I'm thinking Soutwest, MyCokeRewards...?

Funny you should say that. My wife and I discussed Southwest's lack of presence on iPhone just this morning. The weather in much of the country right now is perfect for a "Want to Get Away?" iPhone Campaign.
- David J. Hinson
it looks like someone made an iphone app for Southwest, but they had to take it down :(
- Sarah Perez
Friendfeed - but theirs is in the queue apparently :)
- Patrick Jordan
heh, spelled southwest wrong
- Sarah Perez
@Patrick fftogo.com is pretty hot...but I hear a native app is coming, too....can't freakin' wait for that!
- Sarah Perez
How about every fast food restaurant. Order your food before hand and get notified when ready.
- Robert Chute
I tried fftogo a while back and ended up going back to the main FF site - I've also tried the Nambu native app - but I also can't wait to see the genuine FF native app :)
- Patrick Jordan
Definitely Southwest.

the iphone interface for FF seems great to me, what more could an app offer?
- Marshall Kirkpatrick
Marshall: subscribe/unsubscribe, block, reshare, realtime
- Mark Trapp
ok, makes sense. and maybe easier media sharing?
- Marshall Kirkpatrick
from IM
I often wonder... When people say "iPhone app" do they really mean "something that works well on my iPhone" or do they really _always_ want to go to the app store and download something?
- Ben Hedrington
Marshall: that, too. I'd like to see more usability improvements, as well. To access specific rooms and lists requires a lot of refreshes of pages. It'd be nice if I could access my rooms and lists using an App tab rather than a link on a web page.
- Mark Trapp
the upcoming app will make use of the camera for faster sharing
- Sarah Perez
can we get back to the question about companies (beside friendfeed!) in need of an iPhone app? I really want to hear your suggestions. =)
- Sarah Perez
I wonder if FF is developing a bookmarklet for mobile safari. Added: Sorry, Sarah. :( Because of the phone's limitations my app space is filled with utility tools. The iPhone interface for mobile safari is sufficient for me... For example, I would never purchase or install the Chipotle app (that disappeared)
- Mona Nomura
LOL, leave it to friendfeeders to turn every discussion into one about friendfeed...ha ha
- Sarah Perez
Sorry Sarah - my bad on FF mention. How 'bout Geico - the iPhone is easy enough for a caveman and all that ...
- Patrick Jordan
Target, Gamestop, Best Buy, Nike, XM Radio/Sirrus, Coca Cola, Soccer.com, Marriott, Expedia.com (and all foreign partner companies), Amazon, Amtrak, Virgin America/Atlantic, Jiffy Lube, Kodak
- Amani
@Patrick no worries! :) Geico, hmmm...yeah...
- Sarah Perez
@Amani Whoa. big list! Except Nike and Amazon have apps already...have to check those other ones though...
- Sarah Perez
@Sarah - you asked! :) Yes, I wasn't sure about all of them, but some of those would be easy IMO. Are you working on a special project? My mind is racing with ideas.
- Amani
The car companies maybe? I remember Jaguar doing something in early iPhone days. They could possibly do something cool with multimedia, letting you try out different colors / add-ons etc. via an iPhone app before having to go in person ...
- Patrick Jordan
A "New Apple Products" app? ;)
- Tyson Key
@Amani No, it's a great list :) thank you! Yes, I'm writing this up.
- Sarah Perez
ING
- Devon Campbell
from NoiseRiver
Newspaper Deathwatch app?
- Tyson Key
@Tysen I love the NYT and AP news apps
- Sarah Perez
Like Jason, I'd vote for some more good newspapers / print publications ...
- Patrick Jordan
thx all, writing it up!
- Sarah Perez
Ben, I wonder the same thing because Southwest has a mobile presence which has served me well the past 4 years. And no, I don't have an iPhone.
- Admiral Anika
Sarah - bit late now obviously, but one more ripe category I think = more fast food chains (Chipotle borught out an app that lets you order on the iPhone last week) - also, I linked to your post, at: http://tinyurl.com/9jlhkz
- Patrick Jordan
more companies don't have iphone apps because apple has made the process onerous and expensive. Even after you jump through all the hoops to make one, you are not able to distribute it because it is "waiting in line" for them to review it. These companies don't have them because they are being fiscally responsible in a down economy. A mobile web interface is a much cheaper and more flexible choice. But since the iphone browser is pretty good with regular websites, there's not so much pressure to do that.
- jacob robbins
I don't see all this 'approval' crap with my Blackberry. I can run pretty much anything that is JRE based. I don't need to ask my provider's permission either.

This approval stuff (or lack of it) is why I like Symbian OS, for what it's worth. At least I know there isn't a Big Gatekeeper(TM) preventing me from installing what I want, where I want and how I want...

Do we have any artists on FriendFeed? Not photographers but people who can paint, draw, sculpture, etc? #shareit - http://www.flickr.com/photos...

One of my poor attempts is above. It was something I drew when I was young (many years ago). I used to draw all the time but I've not drawn anything for ages now. I'd like to start again and combine drawing with photography in the future. My palette is limited to pencil and black/white drawings. Painting, for me, is a struggle and colouring always comes out a little wrong. :-)

Glad to share Kol. My colleagues are pretty damn good IMO and I use every chance I get to show off their work :D
- vijay
The question should be: Do Artists still "paint, draw, sculpt..." ? I guess so, because Painting can mean creating images with Processing, and Sculpting can mean making physical computing constructs with Arduino and drawing can be fabbing with a 3D printer from 3D generative algorithms... Of course there are artists here. Just a thought.
- Brad Kligerman
I still draw stick people and houses with big windows and a chimney with a plume of smoke, anything else is beyond my capabilities.
- M F
I typically paint (acrylics, oils, watercolors), but I also do a bit of hand sculpting, pottery wheel, and if you forced me to, I will also draw, though I prefer charcoals and pastels for that.

Nice thread, Kol. I used to draw all the time as a youngster but lost touch until I had some free time and took a drawing class at a local nonprofit art school about 5 years ago. Just like you, I cannot paint, either, and have no eye for color, so I stick with B&W. Here are a couple of charcoal sketches from that class: http://huffstuff.com/images... and http://huffstuff.com/images... . I loved that class so much and would love to go back.

- Tom Ribbens
from IM
I have never used it because I'm on a Mac. I do use Windows but this is the bigger issue: why do I need another new browser? What's wrong with Firefox? I have tons of add ons that I love and can't see browsing the net without them. Flock is a good one with its unique features. Even Orca has something unique about it. It doesn't seem like Chrome offers enough of a new dimension to browsing that I should really care. Why bother? If they're gonna make a browser, why wouldn't they give us a reason to switch?
- Nathan Mylott
Nathan: I disagree to a point. As noted before, I haven't tried it, but supposedly javascript performance is way better than anything that was out when they first released Chrome. This is major in today's world I believe. I'm an avid user of Meebo, and it often is very noticable that Meebo is a javascript application that actually is too heavy for many browsers.
- Tom Ribbens
I also read Firefox is taking on the battle with Chrome and is working on optimizing its javascript engine too. For this, I thank Chrome for making my browser of choice faster, and therefor making my IM client of choice also faster.
- Tom Ribbens
Nathan, you raise good points there. What attracts me to Chrome are its speed, particularly re javascript as Tom pointed out too, the clean UI and the option to create desktop shortcuts for frequently used websites. What keeps me using Firefox is mostly the extensions and toolbars I don't want to do without. However, there are also things that bug me in Firefox (most notably the huge memory footprint), and that's why I'm on the lookout for another default browser.
- Ray Metzen
I switched from Firefox to Chrome as well. Speed, thanks to the optimization for javascript, is the major issue, especially when I'm using my Vista-powered HP 2133. I'm not sure how long Google can keep me on Chrome, but I must say thank you to them, 'coz they push the browser war to another level.

Chromium nightly builds for me! Chrome is great. It loads up everything so much faster then FF, and I love the all-in-one search/address bar and inbuilt memory manager.
- Will Higgins™
For me, it can't be default without addon support. So for now FF is still my default but I do use Chrome for few things.

I've been on and off Chrome for about a month. I'd say I use it ~70% of the time. Most days I'm impressed with its speed - but some days (like today) I get tired of having to hunt down rss feeds and being unable to use add-ons (especially adblock plus).

Using Chrome as default but also have a screen with Firefox because I like Feedly, Google Bookmarks, Extensions. Tabs can be dragged and dropped Chrome to Firefox and back quite easily (just URL)
- Julian Edward
Yep, I do.
- Chris Gardner
No extensions, No use for it. That's the way I see it. Sure is fast though
- Brandon Hall
I do. The only thing i miss is mouse guestures and xmarks.
- Mario
i do. Faster, harder, faster, better, faster, stronger :)
- Stanislas Jourdan
I did til today. The new dev build make mine crashes every two minutes. I'm back on Fx 3 til the next update. Good to keep up with Fx improvements!
- Jérôme Flipo
I also noticed that some websites make chrome beta version crash (facebook particularly). that's quite annoying but it doesn't happen so often to me.
- Stanislas Jourdan
For the last month Chrome has been my default. I've noticed that I don't need all the extentions from Firefox. Bookmarklets works for the most part (for me). The biggest reason why I use Chrome is the speeeeeeeed!:)
- Patrik Johansson
a larger screen is also appreciable :). As Patrik said, many extensions are not so important. The most important thing is the content in the middle ;)
- Stanislas Jourdan
I was using Chrome, now I'm using Firefox B4, might switch back, but a clean install made Firefox so nice and snappy, which was why I was using Chrome....

Cool. Any way for it to appear in the Mac OS X menu bar instead of the dock? Or is that not possible with Air?
- Mark Trapp
We looked pretty hard Mark, but couldn't find a way. I'd love to know if there's some way to do it in Air.
- Casey Muller
Not bad, if you're into that kind of thing.
- Ron Bailey
I wonder why it asks for password instead of remote key. Aren't remote keys designed for third party usage patterns such as notifiers etc? I mean, Fftogo works with remote key, why shouldn't notifier do so as well?
- Urbansheep
Wonderwool, the notifier is first party usage :-)
- Casey Muller
No problem Casey, I figured it was something you guys had looked at. One other thing as I've got it running for a few hours: it notifies me of people's comments that I'm not subscribed to (presumably because they are commenting on a post that someone I am subscribed to posted). It's one thing to see those comments at FriendFeed.com, but it's unwanted to have to be notified of them in real time.
- Mark Trapp
Casey, technically — yes (being built and offered by friendfeed and all), but everything that's not under friendfeed.com domain (be it a service or an app) is "outside service", which should be treated as a point of possible attack and thus sandboxed or made safe otherwise. If you take a look at flickr uploader, it uses the same model as any service that's not flickr.com — log into...
more...
- Urbansheep
Good points Wonderwool, and we thought about both options. One thing to keep in mind about Air though, is that it's a browser technology, and even shares cookies with your web browser. So logging in to the notifier app is exactly the same level of security risk as logging in to friendfeed.com with Safari or IE.
- Casey Muller
Thanks for the suggestion Mark, those kind of preferences are definitely on our to-do list.
- Casey Muller
ERROR: When I run the AIR app, nothing happens. I see the "ff" icon in the system tray. If I right-click and choose "Settings", the notification window pops-up for a half-second, and then disappears. If I right-click and choose "Settings" again, nothing happens. I've uninstalled the app, reinstalled the app, restarted the computer. Always the same result. Other AIR apps work fine (Tweetdeck for example). I'm running Windows XP, Firefox 3.0.7 and IE 8.
- Nathan Chase
Sorry about the trouble Nathan, can you try again now?
- Casey Muller
Casey - Yes! It works now. Was there something broken on my profile on your end to interface with the app? It started working as soon as you posted.
- Nathan Chase
Yes, I reset your notifier settings to the defaults, thanks for bearing with us.
- Casey Muller
@Casey - no problem - just wanted to help so that you knew of any bugs. Thanks!
- Nathan Chase
IDEA: This notifier would be the perfect vehicle to work out showing direct responses to posts I've made. Showing responses to posts that I've commented on would also be a big help - as the current process of going to my http://friendfeed.com/nathanc... page and combing through the posts to see what's been updated is not ideal. So some thoughts for you - to have that functionality as toggles in addition to selecting from one's Lists. Thanks!

Just some guy with a blog...and a HUGE melon.
- Alex Scoble
I shut down threads all the time. I'm the thread stopper.
- Give 'Em DBizness
So I'm guessing you blocked him then?
- Alex Scoble
I think the point of this thread is to keep it going so that no one gets to be the ultimate thread blocker.
- Alex Scoble
I am the ultimate thread killer. Posting now to stop the madness.
- Alan Simpson
True, but Ben, however, doesn't blog...although his bar does have a myspace page http://www.myspace.com/bennyst... Which by the way owns Google if you search for Benny's Tavern.
- Alex Scoble
I am Thor, Killer of Threads, Despeaker of the Saxons, Soverign of ALL England!
- Joey Gibson
alex this guy is your brother? http://melongrowinghelp.blogspot.com/
- Marco(aureliusmaximus)
No, you are just Joey.
- Alex Scoble
You confused the metaphorical large melon of Robert's brain pan, with an actual melon that can be grown in the garden.
- Alex Scoble
+1 Alex
- Tyson Key
Great googly moogly!
- Alex Scoble
OHHHHH my bad - glad you pointed that out because the photo or website accompanying my next guess would have been much weirder
- Marco(aureliusmaximus)
I know some FriendFeeders who comments and the thread stops. But I don't think it's you or them.
- Merry Xmas FFeeders - AJ
It isn't AJ either.
- Alex Scoble
Kudos to you Joey, for coming up with the most awesome method ever to generate comments.
- Alex Scoble
or you alex
- Marco(aureliusmaximus)
Nope. It's not Alex either. Hmmm...
- Merry Xmas FFeeders - AJ
You mean yet.
- Alex Scoble
this is why FF rules over Twitter in my book - you could never do this to the same effect with Retweets
- Marco(aureliusmaximus)
Indeed, Marco, Indeed!
- Alex Scoble
You guys will have to try killing this thread without me for a while. Time for me to head out for dinner
- Alex Scoble
Without proof, who would know?
- Alex Scoble
It would just make me start my own similar thread.
- Alex Scoble
is this conversation over?
- Noah David Simon
It should stop right here
- Merry Xmas FFeeders - AJ
@Alex, thanks. I never expected this many comments. @Marco, maybe this thread can serve as an example of FF's superiority over Twitter for generations to come. ;-)
- Joey Gibson
This is the thread that never ends. It just goes on and on my friends . . .
- B. Hatin
@Chris, delete the thread? Are you kidding? This thread is my ticket to becoming an FF GOD!!! I fully expect an invitation to next week's FFUndercats because of it (and my)) awesomeness. ;-)
- Joey Gibson
Really?
- Merry Xmas FFeeders - AJ
@Chris, No way, baby. Because of this thread, I'm Da Man, Dawg.
- Joey Gibson
I've never been a very good negotiator. OK, let's try this again. How much you wanna pay me?
- Joey Gibson
u know it just occurred to me that we are looking at this all wrong - the glass half full approach would lead us to believe that many of our comments are crafted so beautifully that no one else could add anything else no matter how badly they wanted

Wha?? Damn, I just stumbled in here to grab a beer. How did all you people get in my room?
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Thread killer, checking in. Will this be the last comment?
- Mike Doeff
Nope
- Carmen
Mike, that's just begging for a No.
- ♥patricia♥
No, I hardly ever get a comment either
- Ginger Kenney
This thread is obviously not dead yet *hits it over the head with a cudgel*
- Alex Scoble
Good. Went to Applebee's and had the quesadilla burger...was good.
- Alex Scoble
Just ain't dying huh?
- Nurse Katie
I've fallen! And I can't get back up!

Downtown is too much of a pain in the ass, Chris...plus a lot more expensive.
- Alex Scoble
you are not offensive enough. trust me
- Noah David Simon
First I was afraid. I was petrified. Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side. But I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong. I grew strong. I learned how to carry on...
- Anthony K. Valley ©
I am the ultimate thread killer
- George Smith
I'm pretty sure this isn't the random lyrics room, Anthony, hehe.
- Alex Scoble
Nope. It just means you are succinct.
- Steven Perez
I just wanted a burger, Chris. :)
- Alex Scoble
Isn't there some Mom n' Pop near there? I always find those have some combo of better food/lower price, often both.
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
Alex: Sorry... this thread reminded me of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive". It's a resilient little booger.
- Anthony K. Valley ©
Obviously Chris, dollar cost averaging has worked better for you than for me. :) No, Mark, I haven't seen any Mom n' Pops out here.
- Alex Scoble
Low blow, Brian, bringing up a burger that I cannot have in this area.

DirecTV DVR...she was on Power Rangers? Yeah, she's pretty cute and that's a good show.

I'm a thread killer. I don't worry about it too much.

Can I join in? ;-)
- Kol Tregaskes
Sure, Kol :-)
- Carmen
Wouldn't it be nice if FF timestamped each comment in a thread? Then I could see how long ago Carmen welcomed Kol to the party.
- Joey Gibson
Joey, hover your cursor over each quote bubble. Tells you how long ago each comment was.
- Carmen
Thanks Mohomed and Carmen. I did not know that. Now, it would also be nice if FF put the Comment and Like links at both the top AND bottom of long threads...
- Joey Gibson
This is still going?
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
It will probably be the thread that never ends. Or has that been said 10 times already?
- Ontario Emperor
from fftogo
Probably said more than 10 times.
- Nurse Katie
At least.
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
Pfffttt...as if.
- Alex Scoble
will anyone ever get the last post?
- MicahBear78
no
- Dan Glass
There's always the possibility that you are so profound that nobody can top you, and they don't even try.
- Louis Gray
wow still going
- Marco(aureliusmaximus)
LOL, it totally happens to me, too! I can shut a conversation down with a comment.
- Jason Shultz
from twhirl
How do you mean, Micah? Will the last post be the punchline?
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
the irony of the original post.
- MicahBear78
We certainly can't let Mark get the last post. He already drives a 7 series BMW.
- Alex Scoble
I shot a thread in Reno, just to watch it die.
- Josh Haley
alex are you implying the final poster gets a car? Genius my boy, Genius - this thread will go on for years now
- Marco(aureliusmaximus)
No, I'm implying that Mark doesn't need to own this bright shiny thread.
- Alex Scoble
Wait, wait, wait... Hold on... Back up the bus.... Alex doesn't own the thread; why is he making the rules?
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
fight!fight!fight! Tell him how to use FriendFeed!

this thread has a hell of a lot of comments.

Nothing gets by you, Thomas ;)

- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
Who says I don't own this thread?
- Alex Scoble
Oh, my, god. 269 more comments??? How on earth did this happen?? I guess you guys are trying to break the record... Do the search by # of comments and you'll see if you've won.
- Kamilah Gill
Alex 1 $ please!

OHAI!

Can this thread make 300 comments? Yes or No?
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
Yes
- George Smith
I don't think so.
- Mistletoe Glen
I mean with the 3 showing + 284 + this one = that's not too many needed. I'd say it will pick up straggling comments.
- George Smith
The more you interact htte better
- Roberto Bonini
Agreed, Roberto, indeed.
- Alex Scoble
so, this thing is still going strong, eh? ;)
- Holger Eilhard
No, it is indeed dead. We are just awaiting the results of the autopsy to see who killed it.
- Alex Scoble

- Todd Hoff
Pong!
- Alex Scoble
What does it say about the person that comments last? Are they the true comment thread killer? (Now I'm nervous it might be me....that would be an interesting plot twist. You never expect that you're the killer)
- George Smith
In this thread? It probably says they are suffering from severe OCD.
- Alex Scoble
Am not.
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
Wow...did I finally kill it?
- Alex Scoble
No - it was the dramatic pause like in horror movies. Everyone thinks it's dead and relax for a moment, only to have the killer come back to life....
- George Smith
and comment 300 FTW
- George Smith
um no....

Everybody (including me) wants to have the last word.

We're not going to take it, NO! We ain't going to take it. We're not going to take it...anymooooooore!

Haha. This is one of those epic threads Robert does, but without Robert. This has gotta be a first, then.
- Roberto Bonini
I'm sure he hid this thread a long time ago...it probably fits his definition of noise 100%
- Alex Scoble
Strangely enough most of the high comment threads do not involve Robert -- in fact most of them are not even in English.

Everything I say is a lie. I'm lying.

Who reads Tom Clancy???

I used to read Tom Clancy until he stopped spell/grammar checking his works. Now he's just weaksauce. And Igor...NO!

Is there a limit to the number of comments on one FF entry?
- Morton Fox
LOL um...the same thing happens to me all the time. Kinda makes it less likely that I'll comment on something for fear of killing the conversation...
- Phoenix

It's obvious which of us friendfeeders are either a) competitive, b) OCD or c) just plain crazy.

I've killed it once more! Let's hope I remembered to use the right implement this time. Can't remember if it requires A) a wooden stake through the heart B) a silver bullet C) sunlight D) cutting off the head E) dropping in to a pool of molten metal or F) all of the above.

What's the solution?
- Alex Scoble
Well he obviously couldn't kill this one.
- Alex Scoble
Yeah, it still wouldn't count, because although I wouldn't see the comments they'd still be there. Chris is definitely an evil, evil man. :)
- Alex Scoble
This is all getting very exciting.
- Jason Shultz
from twhirl
Yeah, this thread fizzled compared to the other one. I guess it was the competitive nature of the other one vs this one which has already proved the initial premise wrong.

611 vs 555.

No, you can't kill this thread either. Brian is just too sneaky.

The new “Custom RSS/Atom feed service” rocks! :)
- Klaus Alexander Seistrup
I really would like the new Custom RSS/Atom to work. It doesn't. I tick the "Include entry description as a comment" check box, and it doesn't. I get titles only, just like with ordinary blog feeds. http://friendfeed.com/pebbe...
- Peter
Peter: I wonder if it's because you're using Atom and using the <content> tag for content. I believe it picks up the RSS tag <description>. This page (http://www.scriptol.com/rss...) seems to indicate the Atom equivalent of <description> is <summary>, but I wonder if FriendFeed's implementation only recognizes <description>.

I've actually blocked someone on FF for passive aggressive comments and flat out attention whoring, instead of trolling. This is a first, and it makes me sad.
Amber, Random Time Lord, James (!?), Rodfather and 18 other people liked this
It shouldn't bother me this much, but the person in question (and I will not name names) fills their threads with posts like "Nobody noticed I was gone" and when no one replies they bump up the thread with their own comments, getting progressively worse. Rather than attack them, I've blocked and removed their negativity from my thread.
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
I've had to block them twice now, because they deleted their account and recreated it, all within days of each other. Enough, already.
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
I don't even understand why.. Some of the posts they left were like "I'm sorry i'm so horrible, please ignore me" and I've never seen any evidence of them being difficult. Then they removed all their feeds, announced their leaving, and then four days later came back with "I've been gone four days, and no one noticed".. Why not JUST LEAVE already.

- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Typically no.. Its why i'm posting this here. I felt the need to bitch about it, and didn't want to do it in the public stream. I don't like when people say "I'm blocking (Person's name here)" because it's unnecessary. I did not say the persons name, and won't.
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
That's fine, and I commend your astute detective skills. My statement still stands.

I think you're conversing with someone I blocked too - took me a while to figure out you were having a two way conversation LOL

I LIKE BACON AND BEWBS. OOH! SHINY OBJECTS! *runs off to play with butterflies*
- Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Okay Lindsey, I respect your opinion but ever since the post where I was asking for opinion on a design I did, you have made it a point to jump on my case whenever you can. I don't know why you have such a problem with me, but I'd appreciate it if you backed the hell off. I'll repeat again, I posted this in this room because it's not in the main stream, and I did not specifically name the person. If you insist on dragging this out further you will be the next person I block. I do not need your negativity.

I know who you're talking about I don't know his name though but totally pissed me off. Now here is my story: he posted about school or something & then bumped it up saying ok now someone comment something funny: being someone who abides instruction I commented something sarcastic which was picked up by the following commentator as rude; however, I was just doing the f@cktards bidding which he had conveniently already erased.

Isn't at least part of the value in the aggregation?
- Christian Anderson
Isn't that annoying? "Oh, I have all Twitters turned off." And some of them even import their Twitters in here. Idiots. Bonus is that those people tend to be obnoxious, so if they're filtering by *only* responding to FF stuff, then that leaves the rest of us to have conversations without their input, and that's fine with me.
- Admiral Anika
I don't really notice (or care) where it comes from. Content is king. Can you give examples of this happening? What users in particular? If you are talking about not replying or liking things generated by Twitter, that is because most of us hide all Tweets.
- Johnny Worthington
Sure, for the individual to aggregate their own stuff, but it doesn't help anyone else to see 100s of @<name> posts from Twitter on friendfeed. They have no context associated with them, thus rarely can promote conversations so have no value for most of us.
- Alex Scoble
I'm not a super user, but I comment and like on any service. I try hard not to hide people's services (not even Twitter like a lot of people do - I use FF as my primary Twitter app), and only do it in cases where the volume is very high and my interest is low.
- LogEx
Alex, Twitter posts have no context on Twitter. It's no different here. I Like and Comment on people's random tweets all the time.
- LogEx
I was about to reply "no," but looking down my front page feed, only two posts from non-FF sources have any likes or replies. All of the other posts where people have been actively engaging have originated on FF.
- Jennifer Dittrich
Johnny: I think you gave example of it happening. You hide Tweets. That's at least in part what i'm talking about. By the super users doing that consciously -- like you do -- or unconsciously like Jennifer does. Aren't you doing friendfeed a disservice?
- Christian Anderson
The original post is always (relatively) contextless, though. That's why I exclusively post through Twitter. (That, and the fact that FF-centric apps are non-existent on Palm OS) If you don't want to see my content, that's fine by me.
- Victor Ganata
Alex: I agree that there are a large number of @replies have no context, but a large proportion of tweets (betting a plurality) have just as much context as a friendfeed post so that argument is a little tough to buy.
- Christian Anderson
how does that kill friendfeed?
- Josh Haley
Sorry, Christian, but if someone mostly posts @replies then I hide that stuff unless it gets comments or likes. Otherwise my main feed gets too noisy. I wish I could only filter out @replies, but friendfeed doesn't have that feature yet.
- Alex Scoble
Be definition, I am an "Idiot".
- Johnny Worthington
I'm one too. :)
- Admiral Anika
Alex: are you saying you only filter out people's Twitter streams that have lots of @replies or are you saying you filter out all tweets in an effort to "slowly kill other services"?
- Christian Anderson
Christian, do you have a problem with FriendFeeders auto-posting their stuff to Twitter?
- Johnny Worthington
the only service I hide entirely is brightkite. The rest I hide on an item by item or user by user basis.
- Thomas Hawk
I tend to only filter out people's Twitter streams if they have lots of @replies. I do it to decrease noise. Would be fine with me though, if Twitter went poof tomorrow. :)
- Alex Scoble
I'm not a fan of FF tweeting likes. That's probably just as annoying as @replies.
- Victor Ganata
There's a DYSP in here somewhere.
- Mike Nayyar
What Thomas said, although the other day I liked a Britekite entry because it was a restaurant and the poster included a pic of their meal. What I hate is the Wakoopa? Or whatever that service is that posts when people use Microsoft Office, apparently.
- Derrick
I filter out a number of services totally -- including twitter and brightkite -- my experience is that they include content that for me is just noise (this has nothing to do with FF -- I find twitter noise in general). As always though this is a YMMV situation. The beauty of FF is that you can adjust it to your definition of noise and noise tolerance level.
- Brian Sullivan
BTW... If you think that 'super users' are they only ones that can 'get conversations' going on here, you're missing the power that is avaiable here. There is a whole other world that exists outside your current 'selected' FF stream. Unlike Twitter, FF can exist on many different layers and flavours. Try a different scoop now and then.
- Johnny Worthington
Johnny: i like people auto-posting stuff from friendfeed to twitter -- likes included. If someone saw something interesting and flags it, i'm interested in seeing what that is.
- Christian Anderson
Johnny: not disagreeing with you. I used to like to post something on Twitter and then engage in conversations around those items on ff. One of the huge powers of ff is the discovery, which is why it is interesting to me that so many are filtering out a huge source of interesting content.
- Christian Anderson
In regards to Twitter, you can understand our frustrations. 10 'I just scratched my ass' tweats for every good one is just too high a ratio for me. That's the ratio I see, and I take responsibility for that. I said this last night on a Scoble thread. Twitter is a Post-It-Note, FriendFeed is the inter-office memo envelope. You may pass me something really important on a little sticky yellow piece of paper, but I'm more likely to read the memo and collaborate, a memo that others think I would be intrested in.
- Johnny Worthington
I like my friendfeed is a Ferrari and Twitter is a unicycle comparison better, Johnny. :)
- Alex Scoble
The thing is, you're not following services. You're following people. I have serious doubts that someone who twitters "I'm scratching my ass" on a regular basis is simultaneously posting the utmost of profundity directly onto Friendfeed.
- Victor Ganata
Be careful, Victor or you'll start a new meme.
- Alex Scoble
Victor, you presume that everyone uses all these services the same. I have seen it happen. I filter out a lot of Last.fm, not cuase I don't like the service but cuase the flood of songs, while relevant to the person listening, means little to me in the large scale of things. Plus, where is the context? I wouldn't mind getting @replies if I knew what the bloody hell they're on about. And...
more...
- Johnny Worthington
Johnny, I agree, everyone uses FF the way they see fit, I do find floods of automated posts from services that don't add a lot of content irritating, but I see Christian's point, in that people might miss out on a lot of content that could very well be interesting, but you can't read everything going through here anyway.
- Victor Ganata
Johnny: you should use the service however you want -- within the TOS :) When the group decides to effectively filter out twitter or any other service with millions of users, that contributes to the death of ff because it slows growth. *The assumption being that if a service isn't growing, it's dying. **Disregard for the sake of argument that ff is growing very rapidly.
- Christian Anderson
When a Twitter user decides to try ff and starts feeding tweets into ff and she sees smart and engaging people like you and others commenting on and liking her tweets, she'll be more likely to come back to ff and even comment and like other people's stuff then poof, new ff user. When you block her stuff, she doesn't see value. she doesn't come back.
- Christian Anderson
Twitter is in many ways a ff gateway drug. By blocking tweeters, ff users are minimizing the the impact of that drug and slowing the growth of ff
- Christian Anderson
That assumes that the success of FriendFeed hinges on Twitter, which I don't think is 100% true. And to take Victor's point regarding missing something. Twitter rarely creates, it shares. And the thing about sharing is a lot of people do it many times. I will see it eventually, it may not nessecarliy trace back to the original Twitter poster, but I will see the content. If the issue is...

"Twitter is in many ways a ff gateway drug". So if Pot (Twitter) is a gateway drug to Crack (FF), once taking crack, if I don't still smoke pot I am someway slowing the rate at which other people get are addicted? (Not a gateway debate-starter here, just an analogy folks)
- Johnny Worthington
If someone gives you the choice between a free Ferrari and a free unicycle and you choose the unicycle, you are seriously whacked.
- Alex Scoble
Yesterday, in my own feed, I found out in an interesting way, that most people on FF respond to FF posted stuff only. I on the other hand, don't care where you content comes from if I find it interesting (even coming from Twitter) I may follow the @s to see what the convo was about.
- Lynne d Johnson
Johnny: in that analogy, you are cutting off the pot so no one can smoke it.
- Christian Anderson
No, I don't think so. Why would that kill Friendfeed??
- Meryn Stol
Alex, but it's not an either/or choice. If I can have both the Ferrari and the unicycle, I'm not necessarily going to throw away the unicycle.
- Victor Ganata
You wear clown shoes, don't you, Victor.
- Alex Scoble
I'm hardly ever twitter now, so all my "I'm scratching my ass" posts are directly to FF. On the other hand, I'm still not hiding all tweets, which reflects on my stats. Most of my likes are comments are on tweets. Overall, I'm hoping my likes & comments on tweets will move those people to use FF more.
- Rodfather
While I'm certainly no super user, I tend to view FF posts as first class citizens and tend to gloss over the rest... unless there are FF comments.
- Ted Roden
Johnny, I agree that FF doesn't really need Twitter, and that if something is interesting enough, it'll make its way to FF eventually. But a lot of FF users talk about the FF community as being one of FF's strengths (although I realize not everyone cares about that) and some feel that growing that community is what keeps FF alive. And I feel that responding to tweets is a good way to entice Twitterers to use FF. It certainly enticed me.
- Victor Ganata
Alex, I do realize that clown shoes are not for everyone :)
- Victor Ganata
Not entirely true. Anything with pics gets attention as can be expected. Now even tweets with a tinyurl or twitpic get comments 'cause of FF autodetecting and showing thumbnails.
- vijay
True, Victor, but no self respecting unicycle rider does so without clown shoes. ;)
- Alex Scoble
I mean, I don't think ignoring Twitter (or any of the other services) is *actively* killing FF, but if you're a crack dealer, don't you want the potheads to hang out with the crackheads, even if you don't sell pot anymore?
- Victor Ganata
I think piping FF items into Twitter grows the FF community more than responding to Twitter items.
- Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
Agree Rasheen the piping ff into Twitter is helpful, but ignoring people who tweet first and ff second is detrimental to ff
- Christian Anderson
Christian, I noticed that let your comments here go out on twitter. I used to do it, but I felt it added to much noise on twitter. Also, some people wouldn't understand what my tweets were in reference to originally. I find the services work well together for some things. There's content I share here that doesn't seem relevant on twitter.On the flip side everything on twitter is relevant here. Lately, I find myself using twitter less frequently. Are superusers killing ff?, I don't think so.
- Michael Fidler
Michael: I just started piping comments from ff to Twitter today. Don't think it works. I think 'likes' translate better.
- Christian Anderson
When ff users disregard tweets simply because they originate from Twitter, they are cutting off their nose to spite their face. Twitter has a huge number of smart people posting interesting things. They'd like to engage in conversations here. It's a shame so many of us are turning up our nose at that.
- Christian Anderson
I view all tweets - except for the big name guy who tweets about his bulldogs. You're right Christian - there's plenty of good stuff shared in tweets.
- Hutch Carpenter
Christian... Again, you are saying that a major part of FriendFeed is twitter content, and I'm sorry, it's just not the case. I agree there is some good stuff on Twitter, but the piles of crap I have to wade through to get to it makes it frustrating and time wasting. I will eventually see those things, but life without Twitter is ok. I am not missing out. 99.9999% of the world population aren't on Twitter and they are ok. Chill. Again, from my first comment. Content is king...
- Johnny Worthington
If an RSS feed from a blog shoveled half the crap down that Twitter does, this wouldn't be an issue. Because people are now emotionally tied into the service, suddenly it's an issue? FriendFeed is a content aggregation and community space. It is greater than the sum of it's parts. And twitter is still just a part...
- Johnny Worthington
I don't care where it comes from if it is interesting. I don't pay attention to the little icon on the left of a post, most of the time.
- April Russo (app103)
What April said. Although I *do* hide un-commented twitters.
- Bec Rowe @d0tski
I don't even see a reason to hide them, since if they have no comments they will just get pushed down and off my screen permanently. I save hide for those things that I don't want to see that keep coming back over & over.
- April Russo (app103)
Interesting. Beta.friendfeed.com does not show where a post originated from. Think they wanted cleaner design, or was it in response to this thread?
