FriendsFeed - Surf the web with your friends

May 7th 2008 04:26
The enormous number of blogs, user-generated content services and online news sources are creating a dense information jungle. With FriendsFeed, users don't have to search for a needle in a huge stack of needles, results and news items are delivered straight to them.

Although search engines like Google are good for sourcing general information. FriendsFeed and sites like it allow for users to penetrate the web by using their friends as sources.


As Brad Stone explains in "Friends may be the best guide through the noise"...One benefit of the feed sites is that they make conversation around online media both less voluminous and more meaningful...

Sites like FriendsFeed try to harness the wisdom of friends. They let their users choose whose news feeds they want to follow and allow them to restrict their own feeds only to people with whom they feel comfortable.

Not only that, they conbine the best features of sites like facebook, flickr and youtube. Subscription gives you information not only of your friends' activities within individual sites but right across the web. The newsfeed offers updates on all your friends' user-generated content, but also allows them control what others see. The privacy features are astoundingly good.

Hi -- I've sent you an email already but sometimes they don't get through to free email accounts. Would you like a domain for this blog? If so send an email to charles -at- orble.com (change the -at- into a @) and he will be able to set one up for you.

You may also need to add the email address admin -at- orblemail.com to your address book in order to receive Orble admin emails in the future.

Thanks,
Jon.

(Orble Admin)
