That is hilarious. Stop writing this excellent crap so I stop laughing at the office. And next time this happens? I want you to chat with me instead. Good work.

Drew - you're the man. Enjoyed watching. Now to retweet the heck out of it and share further.

I knew Drew before he had cancer. :)

Admit it, you just wanted to leave a comment so you could see it pop up in the box. :)

I don't have any more insight than you do, but I bet they take tomorrow off and have a 3-day weekend. That said, this team can code better while sleeping than most companies do while awake. So I never count them out.

Curiously, given that "Really Secret Scoble" spells out RSS, this hasn't hit my RSS feed, and I happened to bump into it on FriendFeed. Ever since you made the changes to WordPress, there have been issues.

In July of 2008 I saw the same thing. I said the importance of blog linking was declining.

It is still important to be engaged with the community, but it just doesn't drive traffic. I used to think maybe it was because I had gotten more visible (like those who read Robert probably know who I am already), but it is true across the board. My top traffic sources are Google, followed by Friendfeed and Twitter.

And just how did I miss your article the first time around? Thanks for the mention, Stu. Looking forward to meeting you this evening.

Robert, one thing to note is that the list is not terrible. Some of us (you and me, for instance) have worked hard to try and deliver value to the community. I was a lot less visible prior to FriendFeed, and I don't believe they put me on the list as a favor, but that this occurred organically.

That said, I do try to highlight 10 FriendFeed users each month who are delivering real value. You can see those posts here:

Solid post, Mark. Often, I think folks confuse what's best with what is most popular. Even if I don't think the tools that I like are ever going to be the most popular, I still will champion them if I think they are the best. There will always be people who don't have time or interest for the things I find useful.

There is no upside to leaving FriendFeed. While it makes sense to take a break from anything every once in a while (unless you are crazy like me), it makes no sense to reduce people's ability to see what you are doing around the Web. I don't know how I first met you, but I swear it was before FriendFeed, and I know you even better now because of it.

You say: "now that I’m off of FriendFeed and Twitter I can start talking about what I learned while I was addicted to those systems"

But that insinuates that you logged out of those and are no longer addicted. I would say both are false.

Following the gist of your argument, it is well established that Twitter's search is very broken. I hear rumblings about them improving, and maybe they will go back and get it all, but I have concerns they may never get it. There is a place for both real-time and long-time discussions being made available where they best belong.
