Can I run a basic RSS feed into my friendfeed? If yes, how do I do this? I'd like to run my Get Satisfaction RSS feed into friendfeed to hopefully get more responses.
I've got a blog with an RSS feed hosted at FeedBurner. I have tried
entering my blog's URL and the RSS feed's URL but neither of them lead
to a blog that is imported.
So I'm wondering if anyone here might be of assistance.
on the import services, after i add a service it is still on the left side "import"/blue side.
it would be great for it to work like other sites and disappear after i add twitter/flickr/youtube so i know what i have already added AND if you add more service down the road I don't have to re-check what i already added.
I enjoy the overheard-nearby-conversation concept and there's definitely some benefit to glimpsing some of what my friends' friends' are saying/posting.
But right now my friendfeed experience is altogether too noisy and lacks prioritization. I'm seeing way more content there from people I don't know, about subjects I'm not fascinated with, than I am seeing from friends and about stuff that interests me.
We need smarter filters, and that's a problem everyone online (not just Friendfeed) is dealing with. But given FriendFeed's offering, this is even more important for FriendFeed.
At least let me dynamically turn on/off visibility of posts from non-friends.
I want a squelch dial, so that during busier times I can turn down the noise (and therefore reduce the chances of finding cool news/content/people from "weak links" outside my tight inner circles) and turn it up when I have more time/patience for serendipity and new connections. That's the way humans operate offline anyway. Why force people to live in Grand Central Station when sometimes they need a quiet dinner w/ a couple good friends?
I've removed Twitter from the services I have pumped into FriendFeed, but my tweets still appear on my FriendFeed page (http://friendfeed.com/mjkeliher). It's been about 24 hours since I removed Twitter from my list of FriendFeed services. Why is this still happening?
It's a problem because I'd like to take my RSS feed from FriendFeed and pump it into Twitter via TwitterFeed. But if FF is still importing my tweets, this creates a nasty, unending loop of Twitter messages.
Serious permission issue. Added FF through the FB app. Used it to consolidate Flickr, delicious, and Twitter. When adding Twitter, it asked if my Twitter updates are protected -- they are, very much so.
I checked the "protected" box when adding the Twitter feed. My assumption was that this kept my Twitter feed protected, visible only to those I share Twitter with. I believe that to be a reasonable assumption; there's certainly nothing to suggest otherwise.
I discovered today that FF took my protected Twitter updates and broadcast them across Facebook. That's the end of that. Going to "add/edit" the services also had an erroneous link, it took a while to find another way to do it.
FF is clearly beta, but combining public and private feeds is a dangerous business, and needs to be approached with a lot more respect and care.
How do I remove remove Twitter from my account? Twhirl has been giving me over the limit messages, repeatedly, from startup, and I'm trying to remove all other API accesses to address this. Or could it just be Twitter weirdness that taking action here won't address. Halp!
I am using Mento.info to share links. They have (or should I say had) this great feature to create Friendfeed links automatically from links you shared with Mento, but now they are apparently blocking these links.
I think more fine-grained control is needed about where items are posted. I added the friendfeed facebook app, and it seems really well-done.
I like the idea of having things in friendfeed automatically post to the facebook newsfeed. But I don't want *all* of it to go to the facebook newsfeed. I am very conscious about not spamming my friends, and I don't feel like everything I put on friendfeed should go to places like facebook. (One reason is that the friendfeed crowd is much more interested in web/tech kinds of subjects than the much bigger facebook crowd, which includes all these people I knew in high school etc).
I think if facebook users want to see everything on my friendfeed, they can look in the profile box, or on my friendfeed page. But it shouldn't all be broadcast to the facebook newsfeed.
I just up and grabbed the RSS feed from my dashboard page and added that as a "blog" to FriendFeed. Is that the preferred way to get it in to my account there or is there a better way?
What about tabs? I love the stripped down look of friend feed, but I'd like to quickly tab between feeds. Is that a good idea, or is it not a direction you'd like to take?
1/ I'm french. France is into GMT+1 time-zone. My clock display 21:05
2/ I click I had liked "ouriel stumbled upon a site on StumbleUpon : mail-trends - Google Code"
3/ My feed http://friendfeed.com/oliezekat/likes... contain GMT date-time "2008-03-26T18:05:07Z" as "updated" or "published" tags.
4/ That's mean I clicked at 19:05 for France time-zone. And it's time displayed in my feeds aggregators.
FriendFeed created back-to-the-past time-machine ! :o))))
The site requests my Gmail password despite the presence of the Gmail Contacts API. This is an instance of the password anti-pattern (Google it). There are a variety of ways not to do this - allow people to import their data using the API, as well as using hCard/XFN, FOAF and other importers that do not require me to give out my password. This teaches users to phish. Good functionality, bad implementation.
