Atlantis in bits

Sharing in Google Reader is very helpful. It can speed up information transmission among your friends. However, I can do nothing more than press “shift-s” to share an item. I believe It will be better if Google Reader could allow user to give comments on each sharing items.

After I complained bitterly about the lack of the comments or discuss feature, I found in Facebook, if you are using a FriendFeed that subscribes your Google Reader Sharing Items, anyone, include yourself can give a comment on it.

I registered on Facebook several days ago and found it’s very interesting and useful. Actually, my friends invited me to join some SNS web sites not very long after those web sites were launched, but I found they were not very useful. Friends were connected on those SNS, but we were unable really get connected as the activities can’t be revealed from these SNS.

But on Facebook, it’s another thing. With Facebook applications, we could mash up many other web sites together. We could know what you complained on Twitter, what you expressed on Blog and even what music you frequently listened to. And especially the FriendFeed makes me keenly aware of the power of mash-up.

So these days, I am quite enthusiastic for Facebook, I tried to add more friends into it. But I have to confess that Facebook is not very common in China. At present, I only has 17 friends on face, while I have more than 250 contacts on my mobile phone.
