I’ve seen some interesting conversations pop up online lately about FriendFeed vs Twitter, if spending time on Friendfeed killed your blog, (or not) that feedreaders are dead. Here is the thing, most of us don’t have that much time to spend online, networking, learning, creating content, whatever. I remember Helene Blowers talking about taking 15 minutes each day to read blogs, to stay informed. I gave myself 30. There are only so many hours in the day, and so many of them are taken up with other things, so really it doesn’t leave me much time to spend online (we can’t all be Robert Scoble). So sacrifices are made. I know where I spend my 30 each morning. But I want to know where do you spend yours? You’ve got 30 minutes today, only 30 minutes where will you spend it?

FriendFeed takes stalking to a new level
Or maybe it’s just me. :-) Like most of us I spent a lot of time checking out new sites and online tools. Some of them like, twine, zigtag, and brightkite, I play with for a while then drop for one reason or another. Others stick with me, likeFriendFeed. I know it’s been around awhile, but I just started playing with it. There is a lot I like about it, but sometimes it makes me uneasy. I feel like I’m spying on all these people, I mean I can see their blogposts, del.icio.us bookmarks, Flickr favorites, books they plan to read from Goodreads or Librarything. Granted I’m probably their friend in all those places anyway and already have access to that information, but now I don’t even have to look for it, FriendFeed brings it right to me (even emails it to me if I want) Of course there is also the obvious fact that they created the FriendFeed account for just this reason. But still I feel a bit like a stalker. Does anyone else feel this way or is it just me? Bookmark on Delicious Digg this post Share on FriendFeed Buzz it up Share on netvibes share via Reddit
