The big nod that FriendFeed gets is: <blockquote>Social media will continue to escalate for the foreseeable future, but it will become increasingly unlikely that you'll have accounts for every service out there. With FriendFeed, you don't have to, because of its network of networks, you can just coast along with the few accounts you're comfortable with, but still have access to friendly content across the board. This is the true innovation and it's the reason users will adopt FriendFeed over an RSS wrapper like SocialThing!</blockquote> I think I'm going to give FriendFeed another look.
