Mike Fruchter shared on FriendFeed

Isn't it funny the ones predicting FriendFeeds death, are the same ones who wonder why there are no comments and likes on their FriendFeed feed. This is someone who does NOT even participate on FriendFeed at all.

lol. nice adding his/her name subtly at the top ;) - Mohomed=genieyclo [1d 8hr ago]

I figured with the subtle clues most would know who it is :) - Mike Fruchter [1d 8hr ago]

Should we tell him? ;) - Tamar Weinberg [1d 7hr ago]

liking the image name too. helps narrow the people significantly. - Mohomed=genieyclo [1d 7hr ago]

Eyeroll. His last FF post was Nov. 25. You can't complain about a service if you're not even using it. - Rochelle [1d 7hr ago]

Yeah I was surprised by this whole thing. I unsubbed from his twitter and blog. C ya! - Richard Walker [1d 7hr ago]

I like Stowe, but I have to agree here. You only get out of a service what you put into it. - Duncan Riley [1d 7hr ago]

I'll sub feeds that are mainly imports of Twitter as long as I see they're participating through FF as well. Some people just use Twitter as their main place to post, but then come to FF to carry on conversations. I'm cool with that. But if this guy is complaining and doesn't even participate on FF... - Jason Huebel [1d 7hr ago]

Methinks he aggregates his feeds into FF and expects comments just like that. Unfollowed from his Twitter when he kept live tweeting about various 'bloggers blogging about blogging' conferences and filled my stream with blah. - Sally Church [1d 7hr ago]

Sally, exactly. It's just like Duncan stated, you only get out of service what you input in. I'm surprised Stowe does not understand this. - Mike Fruchter [1d 7hr ago]

who is stowe? :o) - Rob Sellen [1d 6hr ago]

Only FF old timers can see how retroactively amusing Duncan's comment is. :-) Good work, Duncan! - Louis Gray [1d 5hr ago]

LG - I was just about to say how funny Duncan's comment was!!! - ChangeForge | Ken Stewart [1d 5hr ago]

Imagine if tomorrow, FF wasn't here. Mike F would probably need a 'social readjustment' ! :) (Keep 'em comin' MF) - Charlie Anzman [1d ago]

Charlie, could you imagine? I would have to check myself into a mental asylum. Happy new years, and good morning :) - Mike Fruchter [21hr 23min ago]

Seriously. I can't figure out what's so hard for people to understand about FF. But then I'm one of those folks who tried Twitter and never got into it, then tried FF and I never, ever want to let it go. It better not die. Where would all of us go?? - Kamilah Gill [21hr 19min ago]

There certainly is community here in FriendFeed, but it's actually mix of many since people use service in different ways. I have feeling that while conversation is mainly in English, there should be more language specific Rooms so that location specific conversations could also be more actively apparent in FF even while most of the system is in English. - Daniel Schildt [21hr 15min ago]

I dunno, I didn't partake in pownce and could guess that was going under, and plurk probably won't last and I don't partake there - I disagree that FF will go the same way but don't agree you need to use a service to predict demisii - HollowMarkeD [21hr 13min ago]

There might be slowdown in some part (at least I have certainly been using FriendFeed much less than previously) but it might be that usage is growing up (not in numbers but in level of thought). - Daniel Schildt [20hr 54min ago]

I know this is kind of off topic, but I found a bug! There's a person on this thread blocked me via FF and I can see his FF comment here. That is all. kthxbai. - Tamar Weinberg [20hr 51min ago]

who would block you Tamar? weird and dumb IMO! - Susan Beebe [18hr 57min ago]

Duncan did. - Tamar Weinberg [18hr 3min ago]

Maybe he unblocked you? - Mike Fruchter [16hr 3min ago]

Maybe we should all tweet him links to some newbie guides to FF. Then he might understand why he doesn't get any comments. - April Russo [15hr 57min ago]

April, he will just delete them, as he did with the comments I left on his post. - Mike Fruchter [15hr 48min ago]

Mike, no, because I can't see anything else of his. I checked before I wrote my comment on this FF message. - Tamar Weinberg [10hr 41min ago]

Do you follow a calling?

No! I call a following! - Andy DeSoto [12hr 32min ago]

I callow a falling. - Ninth [12hr 25min ago]

Hey! Kallow was so holiday-season-2008, man! - Andy DeSoto [11hr 47min ago]

Absolutely..I am relentless, which is tiring and stressful - Robin [11hr 5min ago]

I'm changing my answer to a solid yes. I'm in the education industry, and 9 years ago when I became a teacher, yes, absolutely, without a doubt, I heard the calling. Now, I run a small tutoring center, so it's still kind of following the calling, but now it's a little more capitalistic than I think my calling originally intended. - Pete D [11hr 1min ago]
