louisgray.com: louisgray.com: FriendFeed List Organization, 60 Days In

  • Scobleizer · 1 year ago
    I keep everyone in my main feed, but have created a high signal, low noise feed where I've hand picked fewer than 200 people to be in my tech news list (people on that list are in both the main feed as well as in my tech list). The difference between the two is really interesting. I like both, but for different reasons. If I only have five minutes, though, I'll read just the tech list. This has made FriendFeed much more valuable to me and ensures I don't miss really big tech stories in between all the fun stuff.

    I like that idea to, I really only have me Google Reader organized this way and participate on Twitter. I really need to explore my Friend Feed more.

    Thanks for the tips Mike. I'm still working on organizing my list "properly."

    I would also advise against removing people from your home feed.

    With one exception (Oracle-related material), I do not arrange my lists by topic, primarily because people do not confine themselves to any one particular topic. In fact, I even think of my Oracle list as "people connected to Oracle" rather than "a feed with Oracle content." After all, lists include people (or rooms), not subjects; people are a little too messy to classify into subject areas.

    Great post! I never thought of organizing FF this way. I think I will take your advice and tips above.
