So there better be some benefit in terms of link juice or it is just another complete waste of time!</p>Steven FinchThu, 19 Jun 2008 05:06:38 -0000http://blog.louisgray.com/2008/06/favorit-opens-up-reminds-us-of-google.html#comment-702088<p>Well that's impressive -- thanks much for the quick response. I totally understand getting these platforms out of "Beta". I am not looking for a core RSS reader I am trying to explore what your platform can do for me as a blog reader as well as creator (<a href="http://www.very.fm" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="www.very.fm">www.very.fm</a>). So I attempted to jump in and get started -- i think the idea of pulling blog content together as you're doing further adds to the democratization of content, and that is worth supporting...will give <a href="http://fav.or.it" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="fav.or.it">fav.or.it</a> a longer look later today...</p>John PasmoreWed, 18 Jun 2008 16:29:49 -0000http://blog.louisgray.com/2008/06/favorit-opens-up-reminds-us-of-google.html#comment-701296<p>oh, good, another site i don't need to read .... aggregators of aggregators ... actually makes alltop look pretty cool</p>gregorylentWed, 18 Jun 2008 15:02:23 -0000http://blog.louisgray.com/2008/06/favorit-opens-up-reminds-us-of-google.html#comment-701262<p>ah, someone else not so fond of <a href="http://news.google.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="news.google.com">news.google.com</a> ... an entire page of pap, algorithm fine tuned for banality, lowest common denominator consumer mind stuff .... scary ... real evil from google</p>gregorylentWed, 18 Jun 2008 14:58:52 -0000http://blog.louisgray.com/2008/06/favorit-opens-up-reminds-us-of-google.html#comment-701090<p>Friendfeed still not working. Tried nickname and remote key but did not work (also tried password just in case but same result) Will cross-post to getsatisfaction</p>graubartWed, 18 Jun 2008 14:38:42 -0000http://blog.louisgray.com/2008/06/favorit-opens-up-reminds-us-of-google.html#comment-700712<p>The import process is disabled for a short while - we want to get it right next time round, for the moment content discovery is the name of the game, we aggregate from a fantastic range of feeds and there is something to be found for everyone. If you want a core RSS reader then go use google reader, as Louis explains we are trying to achieve something different. We will long term try and cater for everyone but for now we have to drive in the direction we always planned on.</p><p>On the friend feed problem, were you using your name + apikey? for friendfeed you must use the apikey not your password. If that is still a problem please report it on getsatisfaction.<br></p>Nick HalsteadWed, 18 Jun 2008 13:55:56 -0000http://blog.louisgray.com/2008/06/favorit-opens-up-reminds-us-of-google.html#comment-699917<p>errr...just had no so pleasant experience trying to get <a href="http://Fav.or.it" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="Fav.or.it">Fav.or.it</a> to read my feed <a href="http://www.very.fm/feed" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.very.fm/feed">http://www.very.fm/feed</a> Thought would be fairly straightforward, but not...also signing in with Friend Feed login was a nogo...could be me...but will give it a month or so.</p>John PasmoreWed, 18 Jun 2008 12:22:33 -0000
