Sad to read news of its demise. Friendfeed is so powerful it's a wonder why it hasn't gain in popularity like Twitter or Facebook did. Sad to read news of its demise.

Thanks for this comment.. and to be honest about your question, I don't know (I haven't tested this).

I would assume that “syncing” with the FriendFeed app on Facebook is (as you have mentioned below), if you add a Facebook friend who is also on FF, then you will automatically subscribe to their FF feeds.

Going the other way.. if you subscribe to a friend on FF (who is also on FB), then you will receive a FB friend request for this person.. which you could either accept or reject.

That is what I would assume this app would do but am not 100% on this. If anyone else knows please let us know.

My suggestion would be to contact the FF app developer and ask them directly – http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id... (Click on Contact Developer link)

Sorry I couldn't answer but hope that points you in the right direction.

If you find out let me know.

Cheers
Matt

I have a question, though. I understand that the Facebook App will subscribe me to my Facebook friends who are already using FriendFeed and “friends on the two services will continue to be kept in sync.”

That last bit of keeping them in sync is what confuses me. Does it mean that if I add a friend on Facebook it will automatically subscribe me to their FriendFeed [cool, I do want that] *and* if I subscribe to a FriendFeed user it will add them as a friend on Facebook [not cool, I do not want that]?

Thanks for your help!
