Friend Feed

I have come to really like FriendFeed. It’s a great way to follow someone and keep in touch with their activities and interests. It’s a good surface level browser, with an easy to navigate interface. It also does what it says on the tin – it’s an RSS Feed reader. But like Facebook and Twitter, it enables conversations and comment threads.
I read my own feed to catch up with my own thoughts and think twice about things. Using it can be like keeping a kind of public notebook.
Postscript: After a I wrote this, I noticed that FriendFeed was coming far too high up in search results and drinking far too much of my Google juice, so I stopped using it. How fickle we are, us internet folk, and yet how wise.

Friend feed is great. I am grateful for the fact that it shows all the tweets from my buddies rather than the ones twitter thinks I am interested in, otherwise it will be very difficult to check if one of your buddies is around to talk to.
I also use the like feature even though some people don't check to see who has liked their tweets that often I think they'll get a nice surprise when they do.
