Comments on: FriendFeed is Mugshot, with community http://www.bytebot.net/blog/archives/2008/03/01/friendfeed-is-mugshot-with-community A permanent record for what's interesting today - this is my live journal Fri, 16 May 2008 04:11:39 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: weakish http://www.bytebot.net/blog/archives/2008/03/01/friendfeed-is-mugshot-with-community#comment-132564 weakish Sat, 05 Apr 2008 05:31:11 +0000 http://www.bytebot.net/blog/archives/2008/03/01/friendfeed-is-mugshot-with-community#comment-132564 The problem with MugShot is that it's a one-end pipe at this stage: you can pipe a lot of things in but almost cannot pipe anything out. I prefer to keep up to date with my rss reader. You can subscribe your friends' friendfeed easily. But MugShot, no way. accroding to http://developer.mugshot.org/wiki/API, you can only get information on the current song someone is listening to. Anyway, MugShot has a nice client, and both client and server is open source.

I like my Mugshot client, and thats the winning point for me. Pity Red Hat isn't really brining it to market...

That and the native Linux client for Mugshot is great. I too am a loyal Mugshot user and to me FriendFeed offers no compelling reason to leave. That and the native Linux client for Mugshot is great.
