FriendFeed Launches API, Can They Take on Facebook?
FriendFeed is on a tear. Tonight they announced the release of the FriendFeed API, opening up all the features and enabling developers to also publish to, not just read from FriendFeed. Want to let people know that a FriendFeed user posted a comment on your blog? Now you can post it as an activity on FriendFeed. Over the past month I have been highly critical of FriendFeed, arguing that the value is in the filtering but ultimately, at least you can track an infinite number of online activities now.
This is a direct strike at Facebook’s Beacon service which provides your friends with notifications of your online activities outside of Facebook.
