Lets try.. - Leandro Ardissone ⍨

I've found it to be somewhat useful (for me). Added some people I didn't realize were on FF. But it misses people, due to the username hack. - Carter ♥ HTML5

Awesome. Could you add links to the names so I can go to FF user and check if it's the real one and if it worth the penny to subscribe? - Leandro Ardissone ⍨

Done. Just click on the photos (either for Twitter or FF). - Carter ♥ HTML5

Cool, but I only see clickables the Twitter ones. - Leandro Ardissone ⍨

Excellent, gotta check this out. - Chris Loft

Try reloading the page. It works for me. - Carter ♥ HTML5

Very cool, Carter! - anna sauce

So, where's the link? - natadd from PeopleBrowsr

http://twitter2ff.appspot.com - Carter ♥ HTML5

I agree with Leandro. This is awesome and useful. I wonder if Robert Scoble has used this? Are you thinking of adding any other services . . . ? - Chris Loft

Very nice, unfortunately I've already subscribed to my Twitter friends who have FF accounts. I suppose the next step is imaginary friends then I might stop using Twhirl to update altogether. - Neurario from twhirl

I addressed Twitter/FF because they are the two big kids on the block. I'm really not sure how well this scales (I'm using a single API token) and I wouldn't want to expand it until I figured out how to address the security holes first. - Carter ♥ HTML5

Would it be possible to create imaginary friends for umatched twitter friends? - invariant

Unfortunately, no. FF's API does not allow for the creation of imaginary friends. Trust me, I've been wishing for that for a LONG time. - Carter ♥ HTML5

wow... the beginning of something I've been looking for since may (http://seanreiser.com/node...) Fan-freaking-tastic! - Sean Reiser

Neural, I had thought of that, too (getting rid of Twhirl and just following my friends sadly still just on Twitter by making them imaginary friends on FF). But then I'd see *all* their @messages, which'd drive me (more) bonkers in no time :( - Adam Lasnik

I dug this, but it also clued me in that I'm pretty much following everyone. - Mattie Kenny

I use Opera and received "unknown error" when it tried to access my FF friends. - ComicList

Interesting! - AJ Batac :)

You would want to mask the password. People are not comfortable seeing that especially on public computers. - AJ Batac :)

@Charles if one of your Twitter friends has a "private" FF feed, then it blows up my query. Known bug, sorry. Don't think it has anything to do with your browser. - Carter ♥ HTML5

@AJ, fixed, although I kept the FF remote key plaintext. want to make sure that people don't think they need to enter their password. - Carter ♥ HTML5

Tried it, got bitten by the private feed bug. Will try again if that is fixed. - jho

LOVE this idea but didn't work for me got this message: "Error: you may have queried a user with a private feed (known bug)" - Thomas Hawk

Blew up on me, too, on a couple of accounts. Great idea (and definitely something a lot of people would love to see/have), though. - abacab

@Jauder @Charles @Thomas @abacab I've implemented a work-around for the private feed bug. Please try it again. - Carter ♥ HTML5

Got thru it this time. Seems like the list is a little....short? Like you're not pulling everyone in from Twitter right off? Got about a half-dozen or so matches, though, which is better than nothing. :) - abacab

@abacab The Twitter API only pulls 100 friends at a time. I've added pagination, but I can't test it because I have fewer than 100 friends. :) It's somewhat tedious, but let me know if it works. - Carter ♥ HTML5

Yeah, I was wondering how you'd get around that. It's a bit of a kludge, but it seems to work. I like that I can keep adding pages from twitter to the same list, and then process with FF afterwards in one big batch. I'd not mind a cookie or something reminded me which page I left off at, in case I can't get through them all in one sitting, tho. - abacab

Worked fine on my iPhone. Only had one mismatch. - Robert DeBord

That's a great tool, I love it. Could I suggest a small improvement? Make FriendFeed usernames links to the person's feed when the Twitter/FF match is not certain. Thanks. - Andy Murdoch

@Andy I used to link all the photo thumbnails, but I think that was too subtle. So, I'm now linking their names back to their profiles on Twitter/FF. - Carter ♥ HTML5

Doesn't work on Internet Explorer - Paul Whitaker

@Paul it seems that I found a way to initially write non cross-platform loops. Javascript is not my bag. In any case, this is FIXED! - Carter ♥ HTML5
