very interesting app you got there. - Rob Diana

Interesting indeed. Are you scanning the entire public feed or just specific users/rooms? - Yuval Atzmon

One bug I've found: When you type a comment in to the Moopz interface and hit enter, it goes to the next line instead of activating the 'post' button. Confusing. - Phil G

@atzmon, Moopz tracks specific users and only certain services (the users are the ones that the "Moopz" FF user has subscribed to. The list started with a small list of top conversation starters, but Moopz will subscribe to everyone who logs in via Moopz. To be honest, I am not sure how this approach will work out, but I am intrigued to find out. ;) - Moopz

@J. Phil, thanks for the bug report. I will look into that. I should also try to setup the handy expandy-textarea feature of FF where the comment box gets bigger if your comment is longer than one line... - Moopz

Are you planning to add search features? And can you tell a little bit about the person or people behind moopz? - Yuval Atzmon

@atzmon, I just added a search feature. I am the person behind Moopz. I do Internet marketing, SEO, Movable Type plugin development and more... - Mark Carey

Nice site dude! keep rocking. - ◄ani625Ξ

Moopz or Mark - I like Moopz. I have tried them all now. I would want a tab that had all the features of Moopz but only looked at my subscriptions. Great work! - Russellreno

BTW I tried search early this morning and it worked well as I recall. The tag cloud is a good addition, but I just proves once again that these sites are 1st tech sites. Instead of the My Friends tab you could do a Food, Music, Celebrity, Politics, Sports tab as an interim step. - Russellreno

Nice one...I always thought that friendfeed had its own inhouse fragmented conversations...can't wait till you make a personalised version, unless FF beat you to it...and conversations by topic make this the new technorati tags (well a machine tag version) - John Tropea

Much cleaner interface than techmeme. - Tabrez Iqbal

This is great! - Jacob

Cool stuff, I love the idea of how likes are comments, forcing you to discuss. Good way to really auto-fill the documents ;p - ElijahBailey-Zu of FF <0,

You have a script error on moopz when you do search in tags http://moopz.com/tag/amazon - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

Thank you Igor! Now fixed. Unfortunately it looks like the error was there since June 2 .... argh ;) - Moopz

Moopz is FriendFeed's Techmeme :-) I'm liking it. - Miguel Caetano

So My Journalists/News Peeps should weigh in here. Does this MOOPZ service limit the openness of your friendfeed by hearling only what the majority of folks are talking about?, eg. like the 6 o'clock local evening news aggregates what is "hot" topics that appeal to locals? This could be a great simplifier for the newscasters, but also make their content less interesting. - derikp

Moopz, great, that is how you build a good company. Good luck! - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

My phone number is on the e-mail signature, on the blog and in every single RSS feed. 408 646 2759 - Louis Gray

In the Google Future, all emails will be Waves with a "click here to contact via Google Voice" button. - Daniel J. Pritchett

brb prank calling Louis Gray. - Andrizzle Gizzle

Tasty? - Ken Sheppardson

^^ - Jay

a terrific moment is captured here - Omar Dhillon

OM NOM NOM NOM - Gabe

+1 Gabe! - CAJ, somewhere else

It was rather bland last I tried. :) - Morton Fox

Presumably he thought there was bacon on the table: http://camilla-april.blogspot.com/2008... - Gabe

yes - j1m

Fiber! - Louis Gray

What does it taste like little Tommy? :) - Ozkan Altuner

Nice photo. - ramiromarques

Thanks Andrew and Aaron for following up on this. - Robert Scoble

I don't intend to leave the issue alone. - Andrew Feinberg

Really following this. QIK and Twitter are two things that give members of congress the ability to get back some of that human quality. Makes it more than just seeing them in shades of black and grey. - Dean Clark

Please, anyone who has any information on this that hasn't been published but wants it out, feel free to contact me privately. - Andrew Feinberg

Indian Gov does live webcast from parliament. Is the issue here in US of individual congressman's sharing of live proceedings or more about the lack of control over the conversations it will start outside among people? - Sudha Jamthe

wow finally the tech main stream media picks this up, , this hit the web a couple days ago! - Tanya

Of course should Twitter and Qik be allowed. Politicians that use this kind of technology should be admired. Barrack Obama seems to use all available forms of modern technology. That's my man as new president although my vote doesn't count... - Håkan Dahlström

It's all the more impressive some are using the technology because it's your political opponents who scrutinize these materials most closely and critically. I learned that lil' fact the hard way by blogging as a local elected official. Posting material adds hugely to the time and energy demands of elected office when you give your critics more material to work from. But the overall payoff is huge: a healthier democracy. - Walter Neary

Maybe big media is getting ticked off and crying to the politicians. After all, some folks might decide they don't need to buy a paper/magazine if it's on Twitter, and the computer is competing with tv (at least, it's owning the tv where I'm concerned). - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF

MiniMage: The process for getting access to politicians in the Capitol itself is convoluted and designed as a gatekeeper. There is currently no way for freelance writers or bloggers to get accreditation. Watch my full interview with Culberson http://qik.com/video/125962 at about 6 minutes to go and see what he means. - Andrew Feinberg
