Almost shut it down for the night. Scoble at http://friendfeed.com/scobleizer continues to spark the conversational flame. Philly's own Drew Olanoff( http://www.drewolanoff.com/post/33316454 ) responded to Scoble's comment about hating Twitter. At first I sided with Friendfeed, thinking this was about platform preference. As this dragged on though, I realized how much I love both applications. These are all rss tools, ways to follow and interact with each other in the internet. Polarization takes more time out here. Blu-ray won because of money. Free applications get better but they are still free. There's no need to pick sides when one can have both without any penalties. Any real Web 2.0 business person usaully has Google reader, twitter, an IM client and now Friend feed open just to stay on top of the news. Not just tech news, but world news, politics, sports and local news. Actually I'm visiting websites less because I can use twitter to pick and choose what news site will have the Info I want. Even Comcast customer care is on Twitter (@comcastcares )! Before this year is up, there will be even more sites and programs using rss, ajax and other new technology. I don't want a Do-it-all tool. I like carrying a toolbox full of free stuff :)...
