FriendFeed

I’ve been playing around with FriendFeed for a few weeks now and I have to say I really like it. I know Facebook has just added similar features, letting you incorporate your latest Flickr/Picasa/Yelp/del.icio.us/digg entries into your mini-feed, but I think it has a long way to go before it topples FriendFeed.

A couple of things I’d like to see on FriendFeed though would be a neater way of adding my Facebook status updates. I’ve currently added them as an rss feed to the blog section and while it works, it’s a bit messy. It would also rock if MySpace would make my friend’s mood/status updates available as an rss feed so I could add this to my FriendFeed.

The best thing by far about FriendFeed for me is the ability to create Imaginary Friends. This means I can set up feeds for friends who have blogs, etc. but would never get around to creating their own FriendFeed.

So, we now have a date for the UK release of Rock Band, Friday May 23rd 2008. We also now have a UK price for the full Rock Band bundle, £180… yes my US friends, you paid $169 we will be paying around $360. Sadly I think the level of boycotting needed to get our prices down is beyond the realms of possibility.
