Gillmor Gang, FriendFeed edition
Steve Gillmor had the founders of FriendFeed on the Gillmor Gang yesterday. Lots of interesting info about what they are thinking about.
Also yesterday Jeremiah Owyang also visited FriendFeed’s offices and came away with an interesting post about MicroMemes.
We’re talking about the Gillmor Gang and whether or not you think Steve Gillmor is a rude host here on FriendFeed. Listen in at minute 50 where Marc Canter gets after him for trying to tell FriendFeed what to do.

Bret liked it, and I encouraged him to use it, so hopefully, it will be ‘our’ term.

Old Gillmor himself would probably be the first to say that he was using the term MicroMeme “three years ago”. Office is Dead and all that.

[...] - eg. no more Twitters. My gut tells me that those guys understand what I was asking for. Asking them to be Twitter clone is the wrong approach. Asking them to accept the fact that ANY single vendor solution is bound to fail - is the right [...]
