Looks great, but I couldn't get the services to update (everytime I tried to add one, I got taken to a page where I could input my username, and click one of two buttons, either save or cancel. Clicking either did nothing, nor did typing enter or return), and the AIR app wouldn't start properly, just sat there eating memory and CPU cycles. I'm on a mac, BTW.

ha, i knew it. thanks for mentioning the bugs, especially the language ones. this is why we went to closed beta for a bit, so we can make sure they all get worked out. i mentioned the adobe air app problem earlier and was told they would have it fixed by tomorrow. hopefully, we have it all worked out in the next couple of days. i know it can be frustrating.

Send me your email address. You can use the mail widget at http://www.retaggr.com/Card/flapic so you don't need to post it here.

Lifestream.fm looks pretty interesting. If you can get some invite codes, I'd love to try it out.

Well, I am one of the old users, and besides the many improvements could notice something got worse.
First of all the badge-widget: I noticed it was missing from my blog and in fact the code has been unannouncedly changed. I have put the new code online, but it gave me strange symbols especially on the facebook entries. I got back to the Profilactic widget...
Some part of the site are now only in German, and the filter only works on the lifestream with others and not on your personal one (which would have been useful to hide multiple entries like facebook status in sync with twitter, rather than deleting a service); furthermore, as soon as you click on filter everything turns into German and you're logged out!
They did a good job but need to fix several bugs. I still like the fact that they are the only lifestreaming site including Facebook pictures.

Thanks for the review of Swurl! It looks like you really dug into some of our cool features (auto friend discovery, etc). Thanks for your suggestions as well - we are working hard to make Swurl the best aggregator out there.

Thanks,

Re: FriendFeed Hack for Immediate Feed Item Updates

krynsky — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 17:21:24 -0000

Ok, this was bugging me a little so I decided to research a bit more. I know that FriendFeed offers a changelog so I decided to search it. If you look here you will see an item with the description "add service refresh and also improve delete a bit" you will also see "change to 'Refresh feed'". Both of these added on 5/13/08. So best I can tell that's when they added this. Ahh...I'll be able to sleep much better tonite.

For what it's worth Mark, I've been wondering how to refresh feeds on demand as well. I didn't know there was a link to do that. It must have been a very recent addition to the interface.

"So how often do you upload a photo to Flickr or bookmark something on Del.icio.us only to wait patiently for it to appear in your feed while continually refreshing your browser?"

Haha, well, I love me some lifestreaming, but seriously, never ;)

Heh. Acknowledged. Suppose I could have been a bit more friendly about it. ;-)

Re: FriendFeed Hack for Immediate Feed Item Updates

krynsky — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 08:30:22 -0000

I've been doing this for so long I never noticed the "refresh feed". I'd swear that link wasn't there when I first started doing this. In any case, thanks for the clarification, albeit in your slap me in the face with a fish kinda way.

Re: FriendFeed Hack for Immediate Feed Item Updates

pacificIT — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 07:57:16 -0000

Huh? Hmmm. 1) This isn't a hack. 2) Wonder what that button which says "Refresh feed" does?

Re: Top 30 FriendFeed Users Based on Google Ranking

"... some people made the point that this just searches for who is using the term "friendfeed" most (which seems the main reason why Scoble and Gray made the top besides they're heavy users)!"

i dont think that it's as simple as that, with a test i ran. i'll give it more time though.

Great, another thing to do with pipes that can suck up my last remaining spare seconds :)

This is a really great find!

I'm with Mark, that is something to look forward to! Your hard work shows with the very refined design and organization!

Re: Examining the Evolution of Lifestreaming Into Lifeportals

terriann — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 17:16:04 -0000

Florent, yours strikes me more of a page with a lifestream than a lifeportal. Your stream is defined in more of the time line structure in that scrolling section of the page.

Florent Solt — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 09:55:33 -0000

Do you think mine could be considered as a lifeportal http://solt.biz?

Sounds good Jared. We look forward to it.

thanks for blogging my hard work, its been years in coming to get to where it is now, just was able to get the mapping component to work recently, a modularized version, that i can give away is in the works.

Re: Top 30 FriendFeed Users Based on Google Ranking

krynsky — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 17:30:16 -0000

Alexander,

Yes, I agree that there are other methods that can be used to create ranking lists. I was just having fun with this. Your method seems better & Mitchell Tsai has also written about using Google page counts here. I'm glad that this post has created some dialog on using other ranking methods and I look forward to watching what others create.
