It seems like, for better or worse, we just can't quite come to a decision about FriendFeed, can we?  Perhaps we're resigned to an endless back and forth about the social aggregating platform.  But, as many of us know, any controversy converts to traffic, which is something FriendFeed can take solace in.
Getting to the point, I just did a little checking of my feeds and read a post written by Allen Stern on the rather uncanny way a few [...]

As mobile social platforms are sort of a pet hobby of mine, I'm keen to learn about any and every update to the platforms that are currently vying for consumers' affections.  One such competitor is FriendFeed, which has a very fluid little build of its social aggregator platform available to iPhone users.
That platform just received an update, and things are looking good.  MG Seigler over at Venture Beat was able to try out the updated platform; updates include a [...]

How does that saying go? Imitation is the greatest form of flattery? If that is true, then FriendFeed should feel very special, because the most popular social network on the planet is taking pointers from the up-and-coming social aggregator.
Far be it from Facebook to let a good feature that some website innovates go to waste. FriendFeed, which is primarily an aggregator of various social media platforms, provides a unique way for users to [...]

Its official: I am addicted to following Twitter .  The habit is nearly as obsessive if not moreso than compulsively jumping to my inbox anytime Mail.app for Mac shows I have a new email.  I even have SMS notifications enabled for a select group of Twitter friends on my cell phone.  Once the voyeuristic beast is awakened and my social juices start flowing, it is all too easy to greedily devour as much mobile-social functionality as I can get my [...]

A new feed aggregator service known as Afeeda is out to simplify feed reading by allowing users to create a single feed that combines multiple feeds from different sources. You start out by choosing between making a personal, group or event feed. Personal feeds gather your own created content such as personal blogs and Flickr accounts. Group feeds are used to aggregate content from anywhere, while event feeds are centered around – you guessed it - events. Once you create a [...]

Zude is the mashup of all mashups. It allows you to create websites with incredible ease that hasn?t been seen before. This is thanks to their technology that allows you to drag and drop basically any content from any site right onto the page you?re creating. Content includes pictures, videos, widgets, and just about anything else you?d want to take with you from various sites. Zude also allows you the control to take the content you?ve added to the page and [...]

I don't know why we rather rarely speak of various RSS feed readers. Are we all totally satisfied with our reading experience? Well, I use Snarfer for my daily reading of news and other blogs and I can't think of a reason to move to another reader now. But there is one situation we should keep in mind: when you want to know that a blog is updated the second it gets the update. If I were involved in Digg [...]

Apparently, Feedo Style, an app that allows you to include RSS and ATOM feed content on your web site, has decided to take matters into their own hands and sell the product outright using an auction on eBay .
With Feedo Style, you can style your own widget, include virtually any content that has an RSS feed, and if you want to buy the whole company, bidding starts at $5,000.00 USD. According to the auction text, the sale will include the [...]

Review: Megite RSS aggregator service. The ability to read ALL your feeds on one website everyday.
I find explaining RSS and feeds to a newbie is as confusing and frustrating as explaining what the Internet was to everyone back in 1994. What is it? How does it work? How is it different than a webpage (or back then, using CompuServe?). One of the causes of this confusion is how people read RSS feeds. Some use their browsers (Safari, Firefox and the [...]
