Quick Way For FriendFeed Users to Find New Blogs

Do you use FriendFeed, and follow a bunch of people? You might be interested in this little RSSmeme link that, once you put in you FF username, find the links published by your peeps and ranks them by popularity. Grab the RSS feed and voila, you have a quick-n-dirty feed that exposes you to new blogs that you friends think are read-worthy.

Thanks, FriendFeed Watch, for the news!

    Benjamin, maybe you can answer something for me. I've been using the RSSmeme top shared for a while now, but the articles don't show any attribution or a link to the original article in Google Reader. You can see a screenshot here.

    Sure it does! Click on the title of each entry in Google Reader. Basically in the RSS feed I set the entry link attribute to the original story link.

    Ah, I see. Sorry, my laptop has a small screen so I usually use GR with Firefox in fullscreen mode, so the status bar wasn't visible. Thanks for the quick reply.

    No need to apologize, I'm just glad someone is using the FriendFeed
    integration!
