As I was researching for dissertation documentation, I found an article posted regarding Facebook purchasing Friend Feed. I found it to be interesting for two reasons. 1) I just joined and am still learning it. 2) I hope that it stays quiet and does not go out of control like Face Book is currently. Right now, it is a growing social network but I also do think that it can be kept under control if done correctly.
Something I would like to see more of is networking groups as I’ve only been able to find one and that is Linked In. So we shall see what becomes of the Friend Feed and it’s new owners.
Here is the article from Cio.com:
The story “Facebook buys FriendFeed,” posted to the wire Monday, incorrectly stated where FriendFeed’s current employees will work now that Facebook has agreed to acquire the company.
The story has been fixed on the wire and the last paragraph now reads:
FriendFeed’s 12 employees will move from the company’s headquarters in Mountain View, California, to Facebook’s Palo Alto headquarters, but the site will continue to operate as usual until the companies decide on a long-term integration plan, according to the companies.
