5 FriendFeed Improvements I Would Like To See
Number One: Don’t refresh the page when one subscribes to someone from the pop-up box when you hover over a person’s name.
This kind of “inline” subscribing is very useful, but when you’re way down the page, still reading entries and comments, it’s frustrating to lose where you were when the page refreshes with new content in possibly a different order.
Number Two: Give us the ability to subscribe to someone when you’re viewing an individual entry.
Number Three: Gives us a tab where the “friends” feed is sorted strictly by the time of the original entry, newest entry first.
New (unliked or uncommented) items often disappear too quickly from the first “friends” tab page, if there are very “busy” items being liked or commented on.
Number Four: Sort the “search” results by the time of the original entry, or at least give one the option to sort them that way.
Number Five: Give us dockable tabs.
When one views an individual entry (which is useful when it’s a busy entry and you want to focus on the new comments coming in), you lose the entry when you quickly want to see what’s going on in the general “friends” feed.
