Re: Facebook? Up 10%. Twitter? Up 16%. FriendFeed? Flat

Scoble, the reason why 3rd-party developers haven't yet built a FriendFeed client is not because the API is "hard to use" (it's actually quite simple), but because FriendFeed's own interface is already the best client. people build twitter clients because twitter.com sucks.

you'd think they'd offer the ability to login with Facebook or Twitter too, rather than having to register a new account. do they ask for your facebook/twitter credentials in order to search those sites?

Re: Hashtags are dead. Long live real-time search and filtering!

chrispeoples — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 02:58:10 -0000

So if I were to tweet something like, "Kobe's in a zone right now," something that's obviously related to the Lakers would not show up in a search for "lakers". I need to add the hash tag so it can be found: "Kobe's in a zone right now #lakers". Unless the search engine is smart enough to make the connection for you, you need the hash tag to make the connection.

Sounds like Netvibes. And Netvibes has way more customizing options.

This might be Apple's subtle way of telling you to buy their headset. Not that I can vouch for it. Or the iPhone. But I've been pretty pleased with my Plantronics headset.

RWW was already my favorite web news source, and it just keeps getting better. congrats.

Re: The future of online conversations is NOT Twitter

chrispeoples — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 12:44:17 -0000

Twitter to me is like a zoo. It's great for watching, but not for interacting.

I couple years back I started looking for ways to share things online, and Tumblr felt like the best option. One problem: no commenting. It felt like an echo chamber. Between Tumblr, delicious, and the various other services I used, I felt that there had to be a better way to discuss these things with my friends without sending them an email or IM. I found disqus (which I still think is fantastic, wish more blogs used it) and added it to my Tumblr account, hoping it would generate some feedback (which it didn't). Then I discovered "lifestreaming", and shortly after that, FriendFeed launched. Halle-freaking-llujah, I could aggregate all my stuff in one place and better yet, people could comment! Granted, my friends haven't taken to the service yet (ironically, more of them have taken to Twitter), but I still think FriendFeed is the best place for interaction.

I still wish FriendFeed used disqus to power its comments though. Threaded conversations, and email notifications.

Re: Text or video, which is king? Well, it really depends on your audience.

It's pretty sad to see that Sterling had no loyalty to the one man that showed him loyalty. I don't know how Elgin worked for him all those years.

Re: louisgray.com: Can Cuil, Built for the Long-Term, Win the "Instant Analysis" Battle?

chrispeoples — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 12:21:33 -0000

I'll admit, I jumped to a conclusion after a single search last night. But when you search for a popular term such as "lakers", you don't expect the search engine to say "There were no relevant results." Which is what Cuil did, last night. Today its returning results, so perhaps I'll give it another chance.

Still, you can't blame people for coming to quick conclusions. As they say, the first impression is the most important one, and when you come out making big claims like Cuil, that impression better be a damn good one.

Well then, I hope your situation improves. Best of luck to you.

Trying not to pass judgment here, because I don't know your full situation and I tend to be real picky about semantics, but are you sure not broke, rather than poor?

Re: Are You Really Using FriendFeed, or are You a Poser?

chrispeoples — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 18:46:21 -0000

That would be cool. Disqus just empowers my laziness. Whenever I leave a comment somewhere - which is rare - I always forget to check back for replies. I even forget where I've commented at. Disqus takes care of these things for me.

Re: Are You Really Using FriendFeed, or are You a Poser?

chrispeoples — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 01:11:15 -0000

Somewhat unrelated, but as I was formulating a response to this post something else occurred to me: FriendFeed should forgo its commenting system and just implement Disqus. In fact, everyone should just use Disqus for comments. Maybe I should Twitter this. Or FriendFeed it. Or tumblr it. Heh.
