FriendFeed Adds New Services
You can now stream your Disqus comments through FriendFeed! Personally, I think this is a major step in the right direction to solving the conversation fragmentation controversy. Here’s what the developers of FriendFeed had to say:
We had a “Fix-it Day” at FriendFeed on Friday, which means we spent all our time on the top bugs and feature requests from our discussion group. You can now add these web sites to your FriendFeed:
Reply To Twitter Through FriendFeed
Not only have these new services been integrated, but you can now post replies to Twitter through FriendFeed! This is so huge because it allows for threading of comments to take place, thereby enabling users to follow conversations on Twitter a lot more efficiently than on the Twitter website itself. Another notable and new service that does this is Quotably. However, where Quotably is more of a hit or miss service for following conversations on Twitter, FriendFeed gets it right. On the downside, the threading only applies to replies that are posted on FriendFeed and not on the Twitter service itself.
FriendFeed API
FriendFeed has also launched it’s API only a day after the previous feature announcements of the implementation of new services and being able to post a reply to Twitter. I’ve already posted my list of applications that I’d like to see pop up and use the new FriendFeed API.
Disqus Approved!
If you’ve been to any of my most recent posts, you’ll notice that I’ve integrated the Disqus social commenting system into SheGeeks! Here’s why:
- Better tracking of conversations
- Better organization of conversations on each posts
- Disqus has now been integrated into FriendFeed
Others are also jumping on the Disqus bandwagon! I blame it all on Steven Hodson of WinExtra for planting the Disqus seed that is spreading like a wildfire. I see Disqus as next generation commenting. Here are a few responses from my friends on FriendFeed about Disqus:
Do you know of any other next generation services, platforms, and sites? Disagree with this post? Share your thoughts in the comment section or on FriendFeed!

WOW! FriendFeed is suddenly getting MUCH more useful! I love the idea of responding to twitter through friendfeed.
I've been blamed for worse :) – good thing none of my ex-wives are around LOL :)
Love your detail! Is the guest Blog thing still going? Please: http://www.myphillynetwork.com/
Do you mean am I still looking to guest blog or am I looking FOR guest bloggers?
Hi Thanks for the post. When you add DISQUS to Friendfeed you can only add the total feed related to your disqus username. Therefore, if you have more than one blog on DISQUS, you cannot pull and separate the rss feed for each blog. And you cannot place each blog's feed in a separate friendfeed room. There must be a work-around but I am not there yet ;-)
Not only have these new services been integrated, but you can now post replies to Twitter through FriendFeed! Thats a cool attachement
I always wanted to have that one included

Web design
If you have decided that you need a good website for your business,the next step is to decide who should create it.This decision is one that needs a lot of attention because if on the one hand, a well-organized and attractive web design can help you tremendously in making more money; on the other hand,a poorly designed website can cost you money, drive away customers, and can hurt your company reputation.
