Joined a few weeks ago but haven't done much with it yet. just haven't spent enough time figuring out how it fits in with the rest of the places I send stuff to. http://www.twine.com/user...

In the past I've used it for finding content but I've done that through the digest email or now via the FF groups I've added. I rarely use the site.

I have been looking at Posterous since Steve has been talking about it so much. It really is quite a powerful tool. Always interesting times.

good one Jeremiah. The bits and bites of lifestreams often leaves thoughtful long form pieces behind, while offering on the other hand the immediacy and rapid breaking news approach. I guess I like/need and want some of both

I of late have certainly turned to lifestreaming more than blogging. Given my current lifestyle, I only have time to find interesting content and interact with short conversations. I certainly think blogs have their place but I think they will morph into smaller "lifestream-compatible" posts.

Life streaming happens all the time. Blogging is what I do when I stop to reflect on what has been happening. Real-time vs Context.

Blogging for me is for essays. Life Stream: information and random thoughts and ideas

I've been using Posterous as a "Quick Hits" outlet to post excerpts & brief responses to - http://alexschleber.posterous.com (granted, some people have felt like they'll just post those same items to their main blog, but I wasn't quite ready for that), so I can see Steve's need for a shorter outlet. After all any solo-blogger is now in some way competing with armies like TechCrunch,...

Jeremiah, slightly OT, but where did you get the widget that shows FriendFeed likes and comments on your blog post? I've been using FriendFeed's embed, but yours looks different (e.g., all the "likers" being listed out in bullet point format; avatars for the commenters)

A Blog is an essential component of a lifestream. It always has been, but these days the term "lifestream" is just becoming popular and many people do not yet know what it means. It is a stream of all activity on-line. Friendfeed is a real-time lifestream.

i think you're mistaken about scoble's loss of voice. i think the difference is that he's directly engaging a more active community. i still think blogs are disconnected compared to something like FF. The thing about FF is that it's social and it's directional. It's a conversation and a broadcast.
- Scott Magdalein
I've made quite a few updates as Scoble has returned to blogging, and Louis Gray has posted some very helpful graphics

Have to agree with Dominic ... It's all lifestreaming but in different forms based on context and the need to express yourself at the time.
- Jonathan Greene
Joanathan, Dominic is right. We're life streaming all the time. Blog posts force us to stop, think, and sort through the constant stream, without this, we're always swimming. Come to shore once in a while.

Yes but it will happen when having a iPhone 3Gs class mobile phones with full Wave protocol integration becomes the norm worldwide and normal people begin to post blogs about life events & WTF events from their phones.
