FriendFeeders Sharing More Than Just Tech

July 30th, 2008

I recently commented in FriendFeed how the contents of my feed has moved beyond just early adopter tech stuff, becoming increasingly broad and personally, more interesting.

This observation is not meant to denigrate the usual tech stuff, but broader content is very important for FriendFeed, if the service strives to move beyond the early adopter crowd and head toward mainstream adoption.

My curiosity piqued, I took the time to identify who exactly was sprucing up my FriendFeed. The list below eschews the usual tech crowd, highlighting those that share fun, eclectic, and amusing stuff from a variety of sources, not unlike a “top digger.” Thanks to all, for making FriendFeed even more addictive than it already was.

(and if you have any personal faves of your own, please leave their handle in the comments below so I can check ‘em out)

    FF was just a lifestream to me originally, but it's grown into something I use on a daily basis – there's always something interesting to find on there!
