FriendFeed Feedback

I've not seen this. - Kol Tregaskes

I'm pretty sure that the only way to fix that introduces more complexity that it's worth. - xero

yep - RAPatton

It shows your name At Friendfeed, and goes to the email account that you registered with - wrote a post on it with examples at http://www.banane.com/workblog - anna awesomesauce

Oops, yep just noticed this too (reply to a subscription notice and I can see the person's personal address). That's not right! - Kol Tregaskes

excellent point - would create a coupling effect - mike "glemak" dunn

I mentioned this as well, should be added definitely. - Kol Tregaskes

yes, i always stumble over how to attribute a reshare to the original poster. partly because I can never remember if it is going to reshare the original link or if it is going to link to the friendfeed post itself. - Laura Norvig

I try to manually re-link my stuff, but it certainly ought to be automated. - Daniel J. Pritchett

Maybe FriendFeed could embed this on their homepage or something: http://wakoopa.com/software/fr... - CannonGod

Damn spammers. - Hao Chen

Kinda like that - anna awesomesauce

A big improvement in room administration would be very much welcome. - Kol Tregaskes

or you should be notified when the real McCoy signs up. I prefer that and I think my friends would prefer that too. - Vincent van Wylick

like vincent's way - which has been a fff request for some time so assume it hasn't been done due to lack of notification robustness in ff - mike "glemak" dunn

Yep I like Vincent's suggestion. Shouldn't be too hard to implement once they add the service you added of theirs? - Kol Tregaskes

I thought all of you were in my imagination?!?! - Joe Dawson

therefore your system would treat it differently allowing people to see it as distinct and not hidden. This would allow people who like to generate conversation but that are not hugely popular like Robert Scoble to generate those conversations from Twitter and spread them to FF as he does. - Roger Kondrat

Great Idea, - Svartling

Yep cool idea! - Kol Tregaskes

What URL are you attempting to visit that is asking you for that? Authenticated FriendFeed API methods use HTTP Basic Authentication (http://friendfeed.com/api/feed..., for example), which would result in that behavior. Those URLs are intended to be accessed by computer programs, though, not from a browser. - Bret Taylor

Try disabling your plugins and restarting - does the problem go away? - Bret Taylor

Dave, is it to do with Twitter? It's probably asking for your Twitter username and password so you can reply to Twitter posts on FF. I had the same thing. - Kol Tregaskes

If you can build an RSS feed carrying these search results that will in turn work in another FF room, please post it here! http://friendfeed.com/search?q... - Steve J

Forgot about my old friend the Yahoo Pipes Blogger Feed Corrector. Whatever FF doesn't like about its own RSS feed, BFC straightened it out. Check out the CNN Fact Check room for results. - Steve J

use Feedburner :) - Roger Kondrat

Jason: sorry for the trouble. If the name you typed in is fewer than 3 characters, it should display an error message and ask you to reenter. There may be an issue with the error message in this case. What name did you attempt to use? - Bret Taylor

What version of IE are you all using? - Bret Taylor

v7 on one computer, patches up to date & 6 on the other, also patched - Jason Grant

Um, do you mean is the ability to say "hey, this looks like that other thing" patented? I don't think so... - xero

Yeah, you know how friendfeed smartly says eg "1 more related items" etc, I'd like to do something similar. If someone reads an article, they can see an 'also read' type link, based on relevance more than friends' behavior. Like finding another tweet that really interests you, that you'd never have seen otherwise. Thanks again. I appreciate the community! :) - Ed Shaz/NextInstinct

FriendFeed supports Media RSS. If the feed has the appropriate data it will show images and even audio along with the entry: http://blog.friendfeed.com/200... - Benjamin Golub

I can't help but mention, if you have a pile of JPEGs and want to instantly turn them into a blog with a Media RSS feed, register at http://ourdoings.com/ -- that's what it's there for. - Bruce Lewis

So, I've done three blogs now in the last three days, and I found that only the pictures that I ALIGNED LEFT showed up as thumbnails w/ FF, the other one that was ALIGNED RIGHT did not. - Pete Delucchi

One of your firefox exentions interfering, perhaps? Something to do with your Java settings? Using Firefox3 here and all the AJAX is working fine. - Slippy Lane

I just restarted my computer (for unrelated reasons) and now everything works again in Firefox3 - didn't change any extensions. When it doesn't work, what happens is I click, say, a comment link and instead of opening the comment box, it pops to the top of the page and adds an "#" sign to the URL, so it says http://friendfeed.com/#. in the address bar (just noticed that's what the link shows if you hover over it - so it's like it just doesn't render the ajax and just tries to open that link). - Jandy Stone

Never had this problem. - xero

ah, it's called a "chicklet"- but also need the tiny one to "share on FF" below a blog post - anna awesomesauce

Hover over your name and edit the feed in the bottom left corner - Sally Church

Scratch that, it doesn't work for your own name. Go to the list you want to add it to, in the Add/edit box just type in your own FF handle and bingo. I just tried it and it worked. - Sally Church

Cool, thanks Sally! - Rob Diana

Laughing at seeing "Google" and "Fuck Beta" in the same screen capture. - Jack Carlson

This is the admin screen for Sociable plug-in. Noting that there are some obscure social apps in there, but no FriendFeed (not a FF issue obviously) strange - anna awesomesauce via Bookmarklet

I pinged them- Yoast - anna awesomesauce

Yes, that is normal. You added StumbleUpon to your feed. You can remove it by going to the "Me" page and clicking "add/edit", then click stumbleupon and then "remove account" - Laura Norvig

Removing the SU account from FriendFeed is not the answer. His issue is that different activities on SU are being conflated by FF. SU does use separate feeds for different activities, so this should be fixed by FF. - Tanath

Ah, I get it Tanath. I didn't realize Stumble had more than just, well, stumbling. Now I get what Ed meant. - Laura Norvig

I would appreciate if friendfeed developers let us know the reason - Mil∂d

FriendFeed Team: Please please please, look into fixing this. :\ My Goodies Room only goes back three pages and there's a TON of content in there. :( - Mona N.

All - FF is working on the fix for the pagination issue in the Rooms....thank you, FF! - Maryam

Ooh, what's this for? - Kol Tregaskes

i have not registered to many social networking services (am not on facebook, linkedin, lastfm yada yada) so the bot works for me. - सिंधु सुंदर

Cool, even if you're on only a few services sites like ping.fm and hellotxt might be handy. - Kol Tregaskes

Must do, could be handy. Would be nice to see who you're latest contacts are for example. - Kol Tregaskes

That's why I'm a data freak who still has all the 'X subscribed to you' emails: makes it easy to see who's new, who's left, etc. - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)

The entry that is visually interesting is hidden for a blunt text-only entry - Peter

I'd suggest it should prioritise FriendFeed shares? - Kol Tregaskes

@Kol... I think that's the best solution. Someone who takes the time to post here, with pics, Likes, conversations, whatever, is much more important than a bunch of people jumping on the bandwagon with Digg, Google Reader, StumbleUpon, etc. - £ogical €xtremes
