			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many of my friends have blogs and accounts on countless social networking websites. Some of my friends and family share their photos and videos on Flickr and Youtube. Some of them heavily use Twitter, facebook, blogs, Instant Messaging,  and emails. Staying in touch with all this information is becoming complicated each day. Not just for me, I have heard other people also complaining about it. You might be one of us too specially if you are like me a bit lazy and one of those people who are not constantly trying so called cool new social networks. </p>
<p>We need a solution that could help us get all the information from our friends and family in an easy and quick manner. </p>
<p>Some smart developers realized our need, accepted the challenge and took it seriously to develop a new web application called &#8220;<a href="http://www.friendfeed.com/">friendfeed</a>&#8220;. </p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img src="http://easy-life.sabza.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/friendfeed-logo-icon.png" alt="friendfeed-logo-icon" title="friendfeed-logo-icon" width="218" height="50" /></p>
<p>FriendFeed <a href="http://friendfeed.com/about/">describes</a> itself as: </p>
<blockquote><p>
Sign up for FriendFeed, invite some friends, and get a customized feed made up of the content that your friends shared — from news articles to family photos to interesting links and videos. FriendFeed automatically imports shared stuff from sites across the web, so if your friend favorites a video on YouTube, you get a link and a thumbnail of the video in your feed. And if your friend likes a news story on Digg, you get a link in your feed. FriendFeed makes all the sites you already use a little more social.&#8221;
</p></blockquote>
<p>In easy words FriendFeed is a feed of all the online activities of your friends that are accessible via RSS feed. Like their facebook, twitter, youtube, blogging, digg, stumbleupon and other activities. Check the list of <a href="http://friendfeed.com/about/help#services">supported sites</a>. </p>
<p>FriendFeed is supercool, however there is a little difficulty. In order to get all the updates from your friends it is important that your friends have already made an account on FriendFeed and has shared their account information for the websites that they use.  </p>
<p>You can add an imaginary friend which means you can add a friend&#8217;s RSS feed but adding all those feeds manually for each friend is difficult and not an ideal situation. So it would be better if you just invite your friends to give FriendFeed a try. I have invited my friends already and I am hoping that since they are so addicted to social media they are definitely going to love friendfeed. </p>
<p>People all over the web are <a href="http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch?q=friendfeed">talking</a> about FriendFeed and many of them are <a href="http://blog.wired.com/business/2009/04/new-friendfeed.html">comparing FriendFeed with Twitter</a>. I think this is a totally wrong comparison. While Twitter is a microblogging site that helps you publish tiny bits of content. FriendFeed is more like a feed aggregator. That merges RSS feeds for a person and publishes a unified feed for that person and then helps sharing this feed with other people. I think FriendFeed is cool and I feel that I will be using it a lot in future. Please feel free to <a href="http://friendfeed.com/noumaan">join me on friendfeed</a>. </p>
