Exactly - Shevonne

The best comment I've heard today! - Bonnie Foster

its actually quite easy to ignore someone you could have done without. *sigh* - Sidney

Wow. Some of you apparently live terrible lives, filled with terrible people you seem unable to avoid, with the possible exception of this one website, I feel terrible about that.Of course, it's also possible you've wildly overestimated the difference between the people you know here and the people who know you in real life. - Richard Lawler

Or it could be, you're wrong. - Bwana ☠

Nope, you're the ones who keep saying everyone you know and everything you do on facebook sucks. That must be terrible. - Richard Lawler

Yes Richard because clearly I can make friends from all over the world on my daily stroll through the park. Or not. - vijay

Yes, it's confirmed. You're wrong. - Bwana ☠

bingo - Jim Goldstein

My life wouldn't be the same without vijay - Rodfather

If everyone you've physically encountered sucks, the problem just might be you. - Richard Lawler

Hear, hear. This news sucks. - Arawak

Oh Lord....not this guy :) - Rah-PM 2012

I like this post, but I love all my social networks equally lol. - Ryan Peach

Luckily, unlike so many here, I can keep using any website I want the same way I did before without devolving into a baseless bitchfest about what might happen someday somewhere. Or, I could have kneejerk reaction based on irrational fear. hmmm - Richard Lawler

And you're very good at keeping your assumptions to yourself - Bwana ☠

On the bright side, I can have a kneejerk reaction on FB and remove baseless bitches from my friends list. :) - JCunwired

Except, they haven't really said anything. So thinking anything will or won't survive is premature. If Facebook perfectly met everyone's expectations there would be no need for war, sickness or evil deeds. Every online community is the same as every other one, if friendfeed, for whatever reason, doesn't keep doing what you want ti to do, you'll use something else. It hasn't ever been perfect and it never will be. - Richard Lawler

I told you Richard. You're wrong. "Taylor and Cox say that the Friendfeed product will live on independently, and eventually Friendfeed will be merged into Facebook. But the Friendfeed team is not being kept whole. Some employees will now report to Cox, others to engineering head Mike Schroepfer. In my opinion that means, long term, the Friendfeed product itself is unlikely to be a big priority." http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... - Bwana ☠

Well, you told me what techcrunch's opinion is, because that's what I wanted to know. Thanks! (there's sarcasm there) - Richard Lawler

Ok let me slow it down for you. The team is splitting. The product is going to merge with Facebook. (No sarcasm) - Bwana ☠

I can wholly identify with JC's statement. - JA Castillo

Wow Bwana...you are really bitchy in this thread...I think Richard is making some good points. If you are having issues with the people you 'accept' on Facebook there really is only one person who you can point the finger. You. Facebook makes it quite easy to NOT get involved with any person. - Sidney

Thanks. Appreciate the feedback. - Bwana ☠

I accept friends in Facebook because if they took the time to want to be friends with me, I feel obligated. I'm also not one to hurt a person's feelings by turning them down. That's what its like in a closed community like Facebook. Friendfeed is totally open - I can read, share, participate and like without having any obligation whatsoever to the people I interact with. - JCunwired

Same here. Wisely said! - Neya

You are probably right. I am checking things out only now - AbZ from Nambu

I couldn't have put it better myself. Just got back and saw the news. Still digesting it. - Charlie Anzman

Well said guys! - Susan Beebe

Dont twitter groups achieve a similar effect? - AbZ from Nambu

LOL - Thomas Power

It's interesting to see ho people use different networking sites - for example - I use FB for personal connections and family and the rest are business related. - Graham Bunting

I like my friends, but you are definently right. I just got on friendfeed any advice on making friends? - Ryan Peach

Smart! - Martha

Great insight! - William Phillips
