I have not tried this yet but it looks useful. Has anyone else used it? If so what do you think?

Ok so you probably know eactly what a browser is and will have made an informed choice as to the one you are using right now (unless constrained by policies at work).
Ask your friends and family (you know – the ones who don’t need to ‘get a life’ as they do actually already have one!) this question though and you might be surprised at their answers!

Further to my series of articles charting the changes in online communication, but also noting how the basic principle remains the same, I was interested to read this blog post today by scribkin.
The 6 Best Ways to Rock FriendFeed
In this post, the blog author – Phil Glockner – likens FriendFeed to the early bulletin boards, IRC, forums and chat rooms in much the same vein as I have done here in my recent series of articles about online changes – most notably in the first part – From Bulletin Boards to the IRC.
I must say it was quite heartening to find someone else on exactly the same wavelength as me, especially as I make a similar comparison between online social networks (particularly those provided by Ning) and the old MSN communities in the article Which Online Social Network?
The blog post goes on to give some helpful tips and advice on how to ‘join the party’ – as I like to put it – and become known in social media circles, (in this case, specifically FriendFeed) without unduly spamming or making a nuisance of oneself. This is quite a delicate balancing act to accomplish actually, and requires a bit of careful thought and planning, in my opinion.
The article is well worth a read for those of us who are relatively new to this area of the web and are standing like wallflowers in the corner, patiently waiting to be offered a drink and a plate of nibbles!!
