What did we find? You can essentially double your browsing speed if you're currently on a broadband (Read More)

: ok - and now?
Reply

Wayne Smallman,
Jan 04, 2009
: I wrote about this problem a while ago, so Louis's views aren't exactly news to me.

Personally, I think Twitter has made people lazy:

"Don’t agree? We routinely use exceptionally complex software each and every day of our business lives. Do we balk at using Microsoft Word or Adobe Photoshop? No, we don’t. There are alternatives to both, but the fact of the matter is, if you want features, then there’s a commensurate level of complexity associated with those additional features."

But in fairness to Louis and Robert Scoble, there are things the guys behind FriendFeed could do to improve their product:

"However, the alleged failure of FriendFeed is not entirely as a result of an abundance of features, but the inability of the developers to conceal the levels of complexity, allowing a more layered and progressive disclosure, or revealing of those features as the user begins to explore FriendFeed further."

@JoshMiller according to MyCompete.com Twitter has 3.4m users, Facebook has 49m and Google 130m. Linkedin has 7.7m users and is no way mainstream. So I guess over 50m users would be my definition.

Regarding the feed reader I recommend BlogBridge (Java). BB is the best made tool so far for monitoring self created searches and has the outstanding feature of creating 'smart feeds' which will make managing hundreds even thousands of search feeds and spitting out relevant items into one 'monitoring feed' a breeze.

: I used digg more when the 'blog' function was one click away (now it's two clicks and doesn't always work) I used digg to auto post content to my blog, I've never used it for any other purpose and haven't read the instructions, I use delicious more these days and I'd probably use yahoo's buzz if it were more available as I'm tied into yahoo with BT so I'm always logged in.

@paulswansen I'm sorry to hear that. I love air apps, and see enormous potential in them. I take it you've tried twhirl? That's the app that Tweetdeck needs to beat for me to make a switch. I'm actually having some trouble installing Tweetdeck. It keeps telling me that a file already has that name. I guess I'll have to delete it first. I'm going to give it a try.

@michaelfidler - thanks for the reply. Yes I was an early user of Twhilr, and one of the other AIR apps. Neither of which worked on either my Intel iMac or the PPC iMac. I do know of others for whom AIR apps don't work either. It doesn't seem to be a consistent user problem either.
