I miss the ability to have a Firefox sidebar setup that just had my list of items scrolling past and nothing else along the side like this view: http://friendfeed.com/realtime?embed=1

i don't like it! :(

I don't like it, I prefer the old version, may you save the old version and we can use both?

it`s to bad !
dose not friendly !

Overall this is very slick. There are somethings that I really miss like having the picture of my friends beside them in the subscriptions widget. Also, I would like some indicator as to where the content came from (e.g. FF, Twitter, etc.)

Other than this, I am going to love the DM option. That is something I've been missing for some time.

I'm anxious to continue to dig in, but think the FF team is on the right trail.

Each new update request asks for up to 30 items, which is broken into likes, comments, and entries in the response. It's not immediately clear how changes in data are communicated back to the viewer, directing him to the 2 recently inserted likes. New entries added to the stream are easy to visually parse but comment and like insertions are currently challenging.

where can I get one of those friendfeed t-shirts? I would buy one in a snap!

For one, I hope you add favicons for services.

Not bad. But subscription feed is not necessary on main interface, I think.

sorry,

> subscription feed

subscription list

We're doomed!

You're doing bad in the imaginary friends thingie if it is implemented like the FAQ says. You have to migrate them to a feed, or else when you migrate to the new version I'll loose the ability of modifying my imaginary friends and I am stuck with them forever.

Also, I still can't find a way to edit the lists in the new interface... I know it must be there, but it isn't, at least, obvious.

I prefer the old version :(
May you keep both versions available?

نسخه قدیمی رو ترحیج میدم :(
نمیشه هر دو نسخه رو نگه دارید؟

much to colorfull for my taste :-/

but then again im not the type using the main-page that much. Its only my fallback if the IM-Frontend is down again.

I don't like some missing things in the beta: source feed icons, imaginary friends (very useful), suggested friends, and the ability to filter feeds by service. I think all our sources should be shown when we look at our profile (now just a few and "more..."). I think the former design was way more useful.

Ugly design

So...the FF beta no longer groups similar items in the feed (e.g., an identical status that I've posted on both Twitter and Plurk)? Not so good. And no mini-window anymore? The filters are nice, but right-hand sidebars drive me nuts.

I do like the overall cleaner look, though.

i too prefer older design.Clean and neat.

I don't like it
1) focus in now attracted to avatars and names
2) source is indicated by text only - too hard to scan
3) overall new look is too heavy - with this borders and colorful boxes

For me FF is stream of NEW INFORMATION and in general it's irrelevant WHO posted it.

i'm pro new ui. it takes getting used to it, of course. but we're young and flexible, aren't we ;)

A very nice UI redesign overall, but I do hope you don't remove favicons for services, they are massively useful. Case in point, last.fm - it's not something I would hide, but when scanning a page for new entries I most often just skip them and leave them for later. The crimson favicon made this possible without a conscious effort.

Forget what I said about it being a nice redesign, I was apparently referring to the CSS color scheme before my brain kicked in.

Three things:

1. Favicons for services. They are essential.
2. Repeating users' avatars are really irritating.
3. Separating the entry title and link is WRONG. I click on the title. The title is the link. URL should be behind the title, doing its work when I click on the title.

Overall, after using it a bit, these three things really bother me. Just weeks after facebook, it seems friendfeed also wants to be Twitter. It makes me sad. Though I find some consolation in the API and the fact that someone will certainly deliver if you people mess it up. ;)

Design is really ugly. I don't like twitter.

Just add real-time features to current version.

First impression: I miss drop down lists that display all the people in that list. I agree with a few others that the simple, white interface is cleaner and less distracting. I kind of like the user avatars next to entries. Thanks for sharing your work-in-progress, and thanks for giving me an alternative to Tw****r. The ff site is still the best ff client, which could never be said for other social media.

Old design was elegant and laconic; this one is... well, awful. Paging disappeared. Way too colourful. Too much design, you know: it used to be a source of information, nothing was distracting reader from the text. Now, we have all the lines and boxes and stuff... all what I didn't care about, and won't ever care.

I know, it's a time for changes, but I don't like this change.

do not like

Rather cute. The subscription block isn't necessary on the main page

I don't like it.

Hmm, looks like livejournal. No, I don't like it.

Mea culpa: found the paging :) Still don't like the design, sorry :(

The top colored header text is buggy in Chrome, disappears and reappears when moused over.

I like it a lot.

I like it so much.
A complete new kind of social interacting, and long awaited features.

At last some colors in the design.
Thanks so much!
Ryo

I prefer it too guys...

Great job and the best thing is all the feedback within friendfeed which you now have, we know you will take into account before rolling it out of beta.

Way more than can be said of places like twitter. ;o)

Rob

1. it's ugly and difficult to read

2. rooms made immediate and intuitive sense, now (as "users"? "imaginary friends"?) they don't

3. the service icons are useful data but the userpics are not

4. separating entry title and link is clumsy, ugly and absurd

5. imaginary friends was slick, now it's clumsy

6. the new mechanism for posting links, etc is pretty bad -- no drop-down for rooms, no option to post comments/links/images etc all at once

7. Is "reshare" gone? That was really useful.

I get tired of people who don't liek change. I think it looks way better. However, I agree, don't take out the old features. Source Icons are SUEPR IMPORTANT, as are imaginary friends, etc.

I LIKE THE BETA VERSION!!

For FriendFeed team, don't let idiots/oldies stop you. Keep adding new features to the beta.

Despite having self hosted Wordpress sites i have started using FriendFeed as my central & only location to be social with friends.

Reason? Your Firefox browser bookmarklet. I share a lots of pictures and videos, multimedia content in general, and the way the browser bookmarklet recognizes and creates a thumbnail for that is great.

Just give me an option to add a title to the text/content i am adding and i am all set with my life stream!!

Also may be there can be a small button, just below/besides Update field, clicking which reveals a more advanced editor for short posts [more than Twitter, less than full length blog posts]? It can be a complete lifestream then.

Prove TechCrunch wrong and Robert Scoble correct :)
