FriendFeed News

Good News for all my friends in China, Thanks to friendfeed ! - geek2live

Now I can live without ssh proxy, thank you, FF. - yinhm

A great overview of some of the features we have for Twitter users: 1) Find your Twitter friends on FriendFeed 2) Send @replies from FriendFeed 3) Publish FriendFeed entries to Twitter - Paul Buchheit

/me sheepish grin. Thanks Thomas, that beats using tweetreplies (which wasn't even working I think). Much better imported this way, but I still don't get the "also send as @reply" checkbox. MIght be easy to add to imaginary friends from twitter/statuses/replies.rss? Btw, is this discussion in FF News extremely bad form? - Edward Zwart

This is great! Thanks for adding more import options. - Rob

I like FF so far. I'm still trying to figure out the whole integration/aggregation/updating process between Twitter/FF/FB/Linkedin. Can FF be that central hub/portal of blogging/commenting? - Barry Deutsch

Congratulations, FriendFeeders! - Stephen Mack

Huzzah! - Ron Bailey

Congrats...next is the monetization? - bcultral

Congratulations Ana!!!!!! Nice job!!!!! - Susan Beebe

"Many such services have emerged, but FriendFeed, an elegant and simple site designed by a crew of ex-Googlers, is our favorite." - Dan Hsiao

Congratulations on the Wired mention! Ruh-roh ... here comes everybody. - Laura Norvig

Congrats on the Wired shout out. - Pete D

WOOT! ^_^ - Ron Bailey

"As a European, I’m always happy to see web companies translate their interfaces in other languages besides English. It’s common business sense, since a lot of potential users simply won’t even take a look if the application is not available in their local tongue, and they certainly won’t stay long when all their local friends start trying out a competing service that is. Anyway, FriendFeed understands this too." - Ana

hmm..... - Rob Goldman

"I find the service very useful and compelling, so I paid a visit to its HQ last week to chat up Taylor and Buchheit." - Ana

The german translation is "gewöhnungsbedürftig". - Michael Zehrer

how can I help to translate into belarusian? - czyk

The new “Custom RSS/Atom feed service” rocks! :) - Klaus Alexander Seistrup

I have a use case/feature request for you to consider. http://friendfeed.com/e... - B2B Specialist

Searching by certain services only is a great tool, ie: service:twitter - Garin Kilpatrick

Thanks for all your hard work! - James Hull

Yes, thank you! - xero

Happy Holidays! - Anne Bouey

Happy Holidays. What's a "panna cotta"? You have some of us out here too, promoting FF wherever we see an opening. I volunteer to continue promoting and providing feedback. :-) - Gail Gardner

"FriendFeed is perhaps the best example of the network in action. Bret Taylor left Google with his colleague Jim Norris, and they became entrepreneurs-in-residence at Benchmark Capital, a venture capital firm. While seeking financing for FriendFeed, they pitched their idea to Paul Buchheit and Sanjeev Singh, two Xooglers-turned-angel investors, who had worked on Gmail. They were so impressed that they invested in and joined the company. FriendFeed’s first $5 million came mostly from Mr. Buchheit and Mr. Singh." - Dan Hsiao

Uhm...and real-time feature? :) - Dario Salvelli

test - vasudeva

(Under the Social Networking category): "We have stared into the social-networking abyss and it is the information overload named FriendFeed. The service aggregates all your social content and activity from Facebook, Flickr, Digg, YouTube, Twitter, Last.fm, blogs, and so on. It aggregates your friends' activity, too, giving you a meta-feed of your online social life. Depending on how active your friends are, it can be a pleasant stream of sociality, or like trying to drink from a firehose. Either way, we love it." - Ana

PCMag was how I found out about FriendFeed. - Ron Bailey

终于有去掉链接的功能了 - LeON

I like the cobwebs in the search box. NIce touch. - James Hull

I like the untied shoelace - Trevor

Awesome. Found a room with this search I had not been able to find with the Google method. - Sean Brady

Yeh I found it rediculious to find rooms with common Interest so far I have joined a few... but it was only due to Google Search which gave me a list of the top 100 rooms or something.. but still it was difficult to get to - Ian Cleasby

w00t! - dgw

Why isn't FFtoGO mentioned on the tools page? - vimoh

Great, finally no more need to add it as generic RSS feed. But how about including photo stories too? I can't find a way to estract a feed for them, but it must exist through some API as lifestream.fm does include them in its service. - Flavio

FB has had a redesign and the status updates link is gone. Can anyone help here? - Kol Tregaskes

I used Bookmarklet for the first time, but didn't it didn't have the option of sharing an image - is that still available? Could it have something to do with my browser? I use Firefox. Thanks. =) - Caffeinated Sue

Sue, to add images just put your mouse over the image you'd like to share. If it gets highlighted in blue, it is share-able. Click it to add it to your Bookmarklet entry. You can add up to three images with the Bookmarklet. - Dan Hsiao

Thanks, Dan (I just figured it out). In the Bookmarklet video, there's some text which says, "Click on images to share them" since that text was missing, I thought the option wasn't available. Lame, I know. - Caffeinated Sue

FF终于推出图片的Widget了，之前貌似有很多人需要的 - LeON
