“Paul Bucheit, co-founder of FriendFeed, says new features are coming "soon" (possibly next week if tests go well). He wouldn't tell me much about what the new features will be, though. Oh, and did you know that the "Show best of" feature works in rooms and lists?”
Thursday at 11:23 am - Link
On my TechNews list, for instance, it shows only people who are on that list and THEIR most favorite items. This is freaking awesome and another HUGE reason to use lists and rooms. - Robert Scoble
Oh very neat. - Mark VandenBerg
New features = WIN, but yes, I did know about the best of working in lists/rooms. Now I feel kind of bad for not sharing ;-) - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)
They've been good with adding new features so far: mostly useful stuff and no total crap that I can think of. - john conroy
Cool, didn't know that. Thanks, Robert. - Kol Tregaskes
This is great news. Go, FF! - Chris Baskind
Yes, the "Best Of" is different on each list. It works "best" in my "Everyone" list and worst in the one that's just me. :-) - Louis Gray
Yay! Wonder if it has to do with that AI intern guy they had. - Brandon Titus
Wish "best of" worked in the "everyone" feed itself - Justin Long
Hmm.. How do I get it to work in rooms? I don't see the "Show Best Of" in rooms? - Winston Teo
I don't see it in rooms either, but it is in lists. - Justin Long
AWESOME news!! Paul is really cool guy! Yes, new about "best of" working on list, but not rooms...thanks! - Susan Beebe
Thanks for info - Alex Hammer

Thanks to Ross (my cousin, FriendFeed intern) and Robert Scoble for being the sources for my analysis (little did they know!). My talk focused on the signals we are looking at to create better automatic filtering and ranking interfaces for FriendFeed. (Emily is Ross's sister by the way, if you are wondering why he likes her entries so much.) - Bret Taylor
Cool, you're using a collaborative filter on preferences and ranking components under Bayes' rule! - John Lam
I'm practically famous! :-) - Emily Miller
Hey, I'm in there as "Sheila", not "Bret's Mom". Is that a promotion or demotion? - Sheila Taylor
Really? I *hate* my sister's entries! - j1m
Odds that people are over-analyzing social media and networking = 100%. Sorry. - Josh Haley
+1000 Josh - Cyndy
Josh -- we've barely scratched the surface of analyzing social media and networking. The AI-based social network analysis software of the future will optimize the interactions and experiences of billions of people. We are still at a very primitive stage in figuring this stuff out. - Sean McBride
Imagine a rapidly self-evolving global superintelligence firing on all cylinders, maximizing the productivity and self-actualization of billions of people simultaneously. That is the long term strategic objective of AI-based social network analysis, collaborative filtering, recommender systems, etc. We're barely at step 1. - Sean McBride
I love this path. FF makes me increasingly less likely to use my reader. Yet, I know there are some worthwhile nuggets in there that I am missing. This kind of intelligence improves the chances that I am predictably surfaced everything I would want to be. I love it. - Christopher Sacca
Awesome. I'm going to buy Emily cookies so she likes more of my posts. :-) - Robert Scoble
Did someone record this talk? I'd love to see it, since I'm one of the sources. Hey, Bret, want to get together when you get back? I'd love to talk more in depth about this with you. I think you're onto something very important. - Robert Scoble
I wonder what effect I had vs. my brother. :-) - Robert Scoble
Friendfeed remains ahead of the game. Bret a driving industry force. - Alex Hammer
Bret is very smart ;*) - Susan Beebe
why not use slideshare to provide us all the slides - jfayel
One of the best talks of FOWA. Eagerly waiting to see the new features implemented. - Oren Solomianik

Whenever I feel the world is against me I play with my son, Milan, and he gives me one of these. Hope it brightens your day too! We need more smiles in today's economy! - Robert Scoble via Bookmarklet

"We leveraged up and if you have a 20 percent fall in value of a $20 trillion asset, that’s $4 trillion. And when $4 trillion lands — losses land in the wrong part of this economy, it can gum up the whole place.” People should have known better but in some way’s it’s unavoidable with markets: “People should always know better. … I mean people — people don’t get — they don’t get smarter about things that get as basic as greed and you can’t stand to see your neighbor getting rich. You know you’re smarter than he is, and he’s doing these things, you know, and he’s getting rich, and your spouse is getting unhappy with you because you aren’t doing — pretty soon you start doing it. And so you get what I call the natural progression, the three I’s: the innovators, the imitators, and the idiots. And that’s what happens. Everybody just kind of goes along. And you look kind of silly if you disagree." - Paul Buchheit via Bookmarklet
Can someone please engrave this on a plaque somewhere? Maybe we could have it etched into some tablets from the mountaintop and have churches predicated on these words. - Christopher Sacca
Right on! Yep, i am very "silly" ...not a jonesy type anymore.... we gave away much of our "cool stuff" and now have a mimimalist home ...MUCH BETTER and the best part, no stinking debt, except house and 1 car. The bank was all too ready to sock us deep into debt. We decided against that and are very happy with our decision to borrow only half what was offered (more realistic with cushion to $pare) - Susan Beebe
Unsure imitators and idiots don't simply continue on their merry way under bailout. - AJ Kohn
@AJ all the bailout does is buy time. We're merely delaying the inevitable, I think. If the imitators and the idiots keep doing what they're doing, we'll just be right back here again, except probably even worse off. - Victor Ganata
@Victor: Sadly, I agree. - AJ Kohn
Warren gets it, and he's a pretty straight shooter. These are the kind of heartland values politicians should be espousing. - £ogical €xtremes
@Susan - we also just bought a house (closing on Tuesday) for half what we were pre-approved for. - Robert Felty
Warren: "And all I can say is beware of geeks, you know, bearing formulas.” - carolh
Paul, I've posted the video of the full interview- http://nicefishfilms.com/blog/... Charlie Rose's site is being hammered with traffic today. - Nice Fish Films
A lot of people have criticized Paulson, here's what Buffett says: "I don’t think you can have a better secretary of the Treasury than Hank Paulson … he knows markets, he knows corporations’ work, he knows money, and he’s got the interests of the country at heart." - Sanjeev Singh
Buffett for President? - Jeff B

Robert, FriendFeed is getting more of my attention than Google Reader which could also be a blogroll. - David Ward
David, FriendFeed agreggates Google Reader, which IMO makes it more powerful. - Jesse Stay via twhirl
FF rocks.... I stopped using gReader - it's all here now - Susan Beebe
gReader is how I do my link blogging - it's how I write about subjects others have already written about. It still serves a purpose. FF just brings them all together so others can comment - Jesse Stay via twhirl

Alex, round up more of your Scoble family members into joining FriendFeed :) - imabonehead
It's also why back in February I said we need far better tools for talking to the search engine. I want to say "show me all items that contain "Scoble" but that don't include "Alex." That would solve that problem. - Robert Scoble
Who's your brother? - Kaia is a party pooper.
Alex is > The Other Scoble. - Russellreno
Robert, that capability is there already +Scoble +Robert -Alex , or Scoble|"Robert Scoble" -Alex - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)
You can't do Scoble -Alex in the search engine? *goes to try this now* - Alex "Chameleon" Scoble
hah! this proves my previous comment about you and your brother: http://friendfeed.com/e/7637d9... - Carlos Ayala
Alex: I didn't know that. It works, FF is safe from Alex for me. Hah! - Robert Scoble
Tina, thanks. I knew there was a reason I had you on my favorite 154 people list. - Robert Scoble
I'd love a filter for removing a person's own posts from the search: that is, if I wanted to find out who's talking about me without finding everyone I wrote. I can't search for Trapp without finding more or less my discussion feed. I always wondered how Robert finds the buzz about him searching for Scoble. - Mark Trapp
Nah, I know it's the cat pics and frequent name changes ;-) - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)
"Robert Scoble" also works - Alex "Chameleon" Scoble
I always do that stuff in EVERY search. I assume that basic stuff works...if not, why did you bother? Tina++ - Rah™
I bow humbly to the greatness of Tina... - John Worthington
Hah, I like how in another thread Robert said that he wasn't going to reveal who is in his SuperSpecial List yet he mentions that Tina's in there. - Akiva Moskovitz
Mark: try adding -"Mark Trapp posted" and that will remove a lot of your items. - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)
Tina: doesn't do anything for comments or likes. - Mark Trapp
Lots of people have mentioned a desire for more or better filtering, Bobbah. Don't pull a Winer and act like it was all your idea. - abacab
Mark: also add -"- Mark Trapp" to remove comments (since all comments are formatted '- UserName'. Likes are hard b/c of the Ajax hide... - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)
Yeah but a lot of people refer to Robert as simply Scoble. Or at least I did until Alex showed up. ;-) - Jennifer Leggio
The Scobles remind me of Thing 1 and Thing 2 ;-) - Far
Hey Robert, I guess your ego searches aren't valid anymore :-P - Amit Morson
You can refer to Robert as Scoble, I don't mind. However, I will have fun with it at the same time. - Alex "Chameleon" Scoble
Alex, you can now be Scoble and he can be The Other Scoble. ;-) - Jennifer Leggio
ROFL...Yeah, his ego searches work in Google because it's just about impossible for someone to blog more than my brother has in the past. I got totally burnt out having to blog once a day, 5 days a week for Computerworld. But here, I can just post little thoughtlets and I'm good...plus there's the whole liking and commenting thing. It's all just friendfeedy goodness. - Alex "Chameleon" Scoble
Jennifer: I'm the older Scoble. - Robert Scoble
Ack... it's like seven degrees of Scoble around here! - ChangeForge | Ken Stewart
ChangeForge: then there's Maryam Scoble: http://friendfeed.com/maryamie - Robert Scoble
Robert is Scobleizer and Alex should be the Scoblenator - imabonehead
I have a sudden strange and strong desire to send out FF invites to every Scoble in the most recent census. - Soup
On the other hand, the Scobles are owning the top of the "best of today" list here on FF with this conversation: http://friendfeed.com/summary?... Scoble Worldwide Domination Plan continues. :-) - Robert Scoble
I knew this was all just a ploy. ;-) - Jennifer Leggio
Well that's a win for everyone who isn't Robert, I'd say. Good job! - James Tenniswood
I'm going to change my last name to Scoble just so I can reap the benefits. Kidding. ;-) - Jennifer Leggio
I think you should change user names to 'the thinking man's Scoble...' - James Tenniswood

Great list with great titles; I added new friends. And also lots of new ones subscribed to me after Scoble's post! - Erhan "peanut" Erdogan
Erhan: I just added a bunch more too. Keep them coming! - Robert Scoble
Robert: Friendfeed will have a pick after you ; ) (*Add Paul S's title - I knew him from his Yahoo Internship days, great choice; Paul Stamatiou: Skribit Co-Founder known for his prowess with all things tech) - Erhan "peanut" Erdogan
I'm not on it, but I like it anyway. ;-) Lot of names I didn't know, which is nice. - David Risley
...every week I see a weird list of glorifying people .. I know it's a web2.0 social thing, but really what's the point of these "articles" and messages everytime? and probably risking my complete "social online life" here, but ....djeez.. whats the point of these lists!? - Pascal
Pascal: My point? I want more techie behavior here on FriendFeed. This is my way of rewarding the people who bring me high quality bits. - Robert Scoble
I think lists like these are actually making the barrier for "the other people" higher to appreciate Friend feed, because it's hard to escape a certain list of people on friendfeed because their posts are everywhere due to 600-800 people liking it you can't escape these people.. Perhaps articles and lists of "who to follow" are narrowing the friendfeed usage to an elite group? - Pascal
Thanks again for the shoutout, Robert... my title = "site & tech lead of Gaia.com". - Christopher Galtenberg
Pascal: "Like storms" on FriendFeed only last a few hours, a day or two at most. But then you'll have a lot more people to follow thanks to this list and you'll also have new blood coming in here because new people will see the value of participating here. So, long term it's a win for everyone. Short term? Yeah, it's a bit messy. - Robert Scoble
I'm not on the list. boo-hoo! :) - Sarah Perez
Damn, um, hey Robert. /me waves - Erica Baker
He didn't add me either, but I got over it. :-) - David Risley

Robert - I agree, Loic is one smart guy - the wine route is perfect!! - Susan Beebe
like the list wish there were more women on it - Kim Landwehr
Yeah Scoble! Where are all the girls?! :) - Patricia
Patricia: you tell me geeky women who have decent signal and I will add them to the list. - Robert Scoble
@robert, hmm....queen of spain maybe? she's a blogger with a political voice and so freaking cool.... - Patricia
Queen of spain added. After all, we were drinking Vodka together just a few days ago. - Robert Scoble
must bring Vodka or Wine to Scoble to get brownie points! :) - Susan Beebe
thanks for putting me on the list robert. you are the first person i look for on any new network or website that i check out. ;) - Rodney Rumford
The U.S.S. Titanic is sinking and this, I'm afraid, is a list of people who are just rearranging deck chairs. Not that its not fun to do that for a while. - Elliott Ng
Scoble, I'm not Patricia, but Sarah Perez has good signal. Kthanxbai. - Laura Norvig
OK, wait, you put Evan Williams on that list? The dude has ONE native post to friendfeed, and his tweets are not particularly techie. So ... some people get on the list just because of who they are, not because of their signal? - Laura Norvig
You want more techie behaviour here? I love techie stuff, but it seems to me that FF is a huge echo chamber of techie behaviour. Now I know you're not at all interested in FF expanding beyond early adopter territory. If you don't like non-techie posts, why are you subscribing to people who post them? Who's going to put together a list of great NON-techie users? (One of the lists a couple of weeks ago had a number of non-social media/tech based people, and I subscribed to them all. I want more.) - Jandy Stone
Good post. Informative. How about a Friendfeed directory or encyclopedia of top (interesting/prolific) users? - Alex Hammer
