friendfeed usability issues - time for a friendfeed browser toolbar?
July 8th, 2008
permalink

for as much as i love friendfeed, its context can be quite disjointed. here’s a scenario to illustrate:

  1. i’m reading my friendfeed stream and i click a headline, that page opens in a new background tab
  2. i keep scrolling through other headlines, the tabbed article is to be “read later”
  3. i open a few more tabs, and continue scrolling
  4. i finish scrolling, and proceed to the articles i’ve opened for reading
  5. i “like” one of these articles and want to share it. now the ambiguity begins.
    • do i share it using some other sharing service that will appear in my friendfeed stream? (easy)
    • do i return to friendfeed, find the original post, and like it? (much harder)
  6. similar ambiguity is raised when i want to comment, where should i do this?

a friendfeed toolbar might record the url (and corresponding tab) of each post i open and allow me to like and comment in place. add search, and a way to post new content, and you have a full toolbar. just a thought.
