we want you to write and your ego is not bloated! - Michael J Cohen
It feels that way. Like by being afraid I'm thinking "Oh, Nine, your creative prowess is so strong and amazing that people will be overwhelmed and so deeply moved! Your books will be regarded as life-changing!" ... I think what I'm REALLY thinking is "Oh god, don't let people like this because I don't want the attention." - Nine (9)
what's the worst thing attention can bring you? From one post. - Michael J Cohen
Somebody will /always/ mock it. Learn to deal with that before you get huge ;) - Michael W. May (Joffi)
I don't mean posts... I mean actual books. And I >welcome< the mocking! The first two things I sold are cheesy vampire romance novels (cheesy modifying the vampire, the romance, and the novel). I want to do something a little more mainstream and I keep going "No, stick to the cheese." - Nine (9)
Does the cheese pay your bills? Or is that a side gig? - Yolanda
At this point, it's just a side gig. tech writing pays the bills. - Nine (9)
I totally get what you mean, dude. - Bitsey Bloom
only if you get a lot of likey's - Charlie Anzman
i still say what i want and i kill threads a lot... cuz of that, but the people that have gone to know me and love me for who i am know were I'm coming from and it's ultimately a great place with lots of love - Caroline
Having people really like your work is a high quality problem. - Denton Gentry
Embrace your ego! I think you have to be a little conceited to be a writer--if LKH can make millions, it's pretty hard /not/ to be conceited when your story was one of the best things I've read all year. - Evangeline

I'm getting married in 16 days and I can't relate to this at all. I value Reader and FriendFeed now more than ever! Anxiety shared is NOT anxiety squared! - Kevin Fox
I relate. Got married July 5th of this year and my Reader usage dropped sharply because of wedding prep and post marriage fun. I do spend a TON of time on Friendfeed though :) - Mo Jawhari
I don't know why this never occurred to me, as there are blogs about every possible subject but... there are wedding blogs? And people subscribe to them?? I can't imagine the content changes much from site to site. "Today my maid of honor pissed me off" or "I gained a pound and my dress no longer fits." And these blogs certainly don't have staying power. Sorry to momentarily hijack your thread; just surprised at this little trendlet. - Carla Thompson
I knew Reader caused stress! I just needed proof. - Dustin
It sounds like she's just unsubscribing from some blogs, not ditching Reader entirely. - Laurence Gonsalves
A good wedding blog would give tidbits on advice learned, like "when looking for a wedding photographer, make sure you find one that includes giving you ALL of the RAW pictures that they took on CD or DVD" - AlexScoble(Robert'sBro)
Serious question - do boys get all freaked out and crazy about weddings like some girls do? - Kaia ♥
Kaia, you know women amplify and project their crazy to make their men crazy, right? - Jason Carreira
I guess I could see that. Like if you're not as freaked out as me about this then you don't care. - Kaia ♥
Now you're getting into the (crazy) spirit... - Jason Carreira
Kevin - The true anxiety hits the night before and during the wedding (and you have to fake smile for the in-laws). Happiness on the honeymoon! Then, return to reality' and .. "Wow, I'm married .. Well, this should be interesting". In Jason's case, it's probably even more interesting. - Charlie Anzman
I've been really happy with feedly. It keeps getting better and better. - Jason Shultz via twhirl

* Pandora is a cool Internet Radio service. * Millions of people enjoy it. * They might not make it. * Show your support. * Keep the music on! * Add a widget to your page. - Steve Isaacs via Bookmarklet
I've found so many cool artists from Pandora - anna
Me too anna. Everyone seems to have a love affair with last.fm, but I'm not feeling it. :/ - Anna Haro
I like Pandora. I love last.fm (but I am a subscriber from day one, which undoubtably alters my prespective) - Michael W. May (Joffi) via twhirl
Pandora is great. I use it all the time. Just this morning I bought a record by Asobi Seksu that I wouldn't have known about had it not been for Pandora. - Joey Gibson
WHAT?? This is news to me? Now what am I supposed to listen to at work when this is gone...crapola! Save Pandora! - Tracy

I love it! FF spam. - Jeff P. Henderson
No way, spam on FF, I see why there ias a block feature now :-( - Kol Tregaskes via twhirl
That is one of the more creative spam messages I've seen. Tom Harrison is right - where's the part about how joevita needs to get $25 million out of England? - Hutch Carpenter
I wonder when will the porn spam start? Or has anyone seen some already? - Colide81
i don't know if it is spam, but i remember seeing some groups. - Mladen Srdić

I like how this thread turned into a talk on friendfeed spam, needless to say its amusing - BCK

Because I'm not my own host and WP doesn't support it :( - Mona N.
if we could embed our entire friendfeed page onto our site & have one click signup for non-friendfeed members. That would be superb. - Zee at WeDoCreative
Paul - because WordPress templates frighten me. - Patrick Lightbody
Paul - did you fix the word wrap issue for comments? e.g. on my blog comments cascade across the column into the right margin - http://blog.infinitelymeta.com... not a big deal at all. just wondering. great work on the beta btw. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg
you know what Paul - ignore what I said....apart from letting people sign up directly via the widget. Then my friends/family who aren't on friendfeed can comment directly plus you get a whole bunch of new 'non-techy' members. - Zee at WeDoCreative
What Mona said. I suggested to WP that they add FriendFeed to the "trusted javascript list"; they responded promptly saying that they would add it to their "candidate library". - Neil Saunders
DITTO what Mona said .... - fotographic
Does WP allow iframes? - Paul Buchheit
I tried a couple of times to get it to work, but even with setting the width, the comments still sprawled outside the border of the widget and looked ugly. - Jason Shultz via twhirl
Still using the original script on the front page, but did add 'Share on FriendFeed' to the Blogger post template today. Awesome. - Marianne Lenox
I created my own widget using feedburner's RSS setup and some CSS code, so as I can get my entire lifestream, as set up on FF, to show up. Since I'm a crappy web designer, I may end up using the FF widget, after all... :/ Can we also use Yahoo Pipes on the Widget? I'm thinking of using Rasheen's duplicate removal setup, once he gets it to work... - Helen Is SOOO Not Of Troy
Yepp, works flawless :) (both widget & bookmarklet) - Kemal Yaylali
i haven't because i'm trying to figure out where to put it on my blog. - Morgan
Not sure Paul. I'm using Chris Pirillo's Social Media theme. Not a WP guru myself. Willing to test though. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg
FYI: Adding the widgets (other than the "Share on FriendFeed" link) to self-hosted WordPress requires zero knowledge of WordPress templates. You login to WordPress, click on "Design", then "Widgets", and add a "text" widget and paste in the code. - Benjamin Golub
No because my blog sidebar is too narrow and changing the widget width cuts the text off mid-line. May redesign my blog one day when I'm bored. - Deborah Fitchett
I did, before Godaddy lost the location of my blog they host and I can't get it back :( - John Worthington
I had it on my old site design, just added it to my latest. Thanks for the reminder. - Jack Carlson
I just did the other day when someone posted the link here on FF. It rocks, thx. - Victoria/Plautia
Yes - to http://www.ad2025andbeyond.com - with summary feed from 3 friendfeed rooms I can easily share links to. - Justin Long
I'll check it out after work! Thanks! - Ron
can you remove the border from the widget? And is there a way to make the background of the widget transparent? - Zee at WeDoCreative
I did it. I would like some CSS options right in the widget editor--colors, fonts, etc. :D - Josh Lowensohn
how Josh? - Zee at WeDoCreative
remove the border: .friendfeed.widget { border: 0 !important; } - Benjamin Golub
No JS http://faq.wordpress.com/2007/... and no iframes http://en.forums.wordpress.com... on WordPress.com Sadly no flash embedding support either unless WP.com adds support for a site: http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/... - Erica Baker
I have, well, not my blog, but my "main page": http://www.xs4all.nl/~pkleiweg... - Peter
I have had it on my blog for ages and it is great see http://www.loiclemeur.com - Loic Le Meur
awesome, thank you Benjamin. No way to make the background transparent is there? Or is that not poss? - Zee at WeDoCreative
To answer the question, yes I do, but I haven't switched to the new one. :) - Erica Baker
Zee: try .friendfeed.widget { background-color: transparent !important; }. Anything's possible :) - Benjamin Golub
Last time I tried to fit it in a 160px sidebar I couldn't make it look good. Is it time to retry? - Bruce Lewis via fftogo
I like the old one better :P - Shey
hell, yeah! both on the main page and a dedicated page :) http://www.c4chaos.com/hyperst... - ~C4Chaos
dang, no luck - thanks all the same Ben - Zee at WeDoCreative
I didn't like what it looked like. - Andrew Leyden
I just added mine to http://www.virtualbirdseye.com - don't know if I like it or not... We'll see how I can fit it in better. - Virtual Bird's Eye via twhirl
Used it as an experiment in the 'blog that posted itself' recently. Great. Now I'd like to use it in sidebar as widget. Can't change text size tho'. Too big. - Kate Foy
Ditto Loic - but switched to the newer wider one. Would love to be able to do like 7 or 8 in instead of 5 OR 10. Try to keep the stream clean there for others. Think 7 would be perfect but one size doesn't fit all :) - Charlie Anzman
you can do different numbers, just change the num= variable. I use num=12 - Justin Long
@Peter thank you! - Zee at WeDoCreative
I don't feel like my friendfeed content meshes very well with my blog. I enjoy friendfeed quite a bit, but I don't really feel the need to try to get more people to look at my friendfeed. I did try it a couple months ago before it was really public, when I noticed it on your blog, Paul. I do use the friendfeed comment plugin. Maybe I will add a share on friendfeed button. - Robert Felty
Nope - hosted wordpress.com doesn't allow widgets - Hutch Carpenter
Absolutely, I've had the widget on the blog for about a month. KnowtheNetwork.com - tsudohnimh
nope, because I made my own version ;) - Pascal

Some of these are so hard to look at - Lindsey Smith
I was on this site a while before I posted... all of those pictures = mesmerizing. Agreed, Lindsay. It's amazing how photographs can conjure so much emotion :) - Mona N.
Makes all my problems so trivial. - Lindsey Smith
Lindsay: You don't even know.. I spent a five weeks in rural Philippines. I pumped water from a well and 'showered' from a water bucket... I've seen starvation and poverty. Some of these things we complain about, is seriously nothing lol - Mona N.
Kevin Carter won a Pulitzer for his photo of the child and the vulture. The sad thing is that as good a photographer as Carter was he ended up killing himself. In his suicide note he wrote, "I am depressed ... without phone ... money for rent ... money for child support ... money for debts ... money!!! ... I am haunted by the vivid memories of killings and corpses and anger and pain ... of starving or wounded children, of trigger-happy madmen, often police, of killer executioners...I have gone to join Ken if I am that lucky." - Thomas Hawk
Oh, I missed it. Thanks mwm :) Funny how we both posted the same link, but chose completely different pictures.@Thomas: The irony =\ - Mona N.
The Palestinian Father photo has been shown to be fake. - Victor Ryden
@Thomas Some people suffer for most of us. Photographers such as Kevin Carter wouldn't fit the typical 'Hero' template but I wouldn't be who I am if I wasn't gifted perspective by images such as these from people such as Kevin. A more cheerful story from a photographer : Rick Smolan's story of a girl : http://tinyurl.com/669yvd - The Fat Oracle
Some of those photos I've seen many times before and they're still very powerful. - Candace Holly
Thanks for your comment on Kevin Carter, Thomas. It puts it all into a perspective. - Roberto Bonini
Agreed. Thomas' insight really made an impact, too :) - Mona N.

@Mahdi They're men - Lindsey Smith
Lindsey are you sure? - Mahdi Ebrahimi
Caption for the pic is: Veiled Women Men Shoot In 1986, Iranian men dressed as women shoot using guns in the outskirts of the capital city Tehran. Nothing much is said about this photograph, but it raised important issues to the steps Iranian fighters would take to mingle in with innocent people. - Lindsey Smith
