I like that. In other words, “Like means whatever you’d like it to mean.” Thanks.

‘Like’ has a variety of applications in FriendFeed – it can mean ‘I like the fact you posted this,’ ‘I’m glad this issue is being raised’ (even if the person liking it isn’t happy about the underlying problem), ‘I want to save this for later’ (you can view your Comments and Likes, which to me is more useful than del.icio.us). Probably others I’m forgettingor not aware of.

And I don’t even know what a “like” is…but I’ll learn, I guess.

On the other hand, I’ve now played with FF just enough to believe that any desire to renew Twitter is fading: What it can do, that I might want to do, I think I can do just as well with FF comments. But it’s early yet…

What I could see deteriorating if I like FF: Time spent at LSW Meebo. And I think that’s been on the decline somewhat anyway.

Hmm. I’ve been on FriendFeed for about 20 hours, during one of the quietest times of the year (I assume), and 36 people have subscribed. Dunno what that means…if anything.

Loving the fact that there are eight comments and a “like” for this post on FriendFeed, while this is the first comment on the blog itself. Only natural for this particular post, of course, but I’ll be curious to see what happens from now on.
