I think the Like feature is great to spread things you like around to others and to also make sure that good post don&#39t get buried too quickly. But, as far as bookmarking goes I don&#39t think it really is that great. When you start to get up to 6000 likes or 12000, etc it gets too hard to really go back and find something. Unless you know what you are searching for and can then just use the search feature in FF.

I will occasionally, when I&#39m in a hurry, use a like as a kind of bookmark to read later, but mostly I use likes to show that I like something or want my subscribers to see it. I don&#39t really trust friendfeed as a more permanent bookmarking system, so anything I want to find later will be posted to Diigo and tagged.

A heartfelt thank you for this post. Like you write «the river of content flows fast and furiously on FriendFeed», and even though I spend a lot of time there I miss a lot too.

I do hope people who are new to FriendFeed will read this post because it&#39s really helpful and I wish I&#39d had something like this in the beginning :)

Yuvi, you might be able to view more than 900 if you keep it in Google Reader? ;)

I use the like feature the same way. :) My problem with it, though, is that it is public. Sometimes, I just want to grab something to investigate for later, or whatever and I don&#39t want to publically like something. I started resharing into a private room for that. But it&#39d be nice if there was a different feature that would do that. Kind of like the difference between "star"ing and "share"ing in Google Reader.

Well, you can view only your last 900 likes....

Yes I use this all the time. You forgot to mention the search feature in friendfeed. It&#39s very easy to search for your bookmarks (Likes) with the built in search.

Like feature is great. I wish they had a tag option. This way I&#39d tag the posts I like, and visit my archives of tags whenever I needed them (similar to delicious).

My main problem with friendfeed is it&#39s addictive and kills my productivity :)
