While browsing some of my Google FeedBurner statistics, I found that I have 131 feed subscribers on FriendFeed for my personal website/blog- Awen Creative. This is surprising to me, considering that I almost never use FriendFeed- I’ve simply linked my popular social media accounts and websites to my FriendFeed profile, which then creates my feed.

FriendFeed LogoWhen brings me to the main question of this post- Do you use FriendFeed on a regular basis? And if so, what do you use it for? Following others in your industry? Keeping up with news from friends, family, and co-workers?

If you do use it on a regular basis, what are some of the perks of using FriendFeed over other social networks? If I’m missing out on something, let me know!

What do you like best about FriendFeed? Let me  know in the comments.

I’m a pretty big fan of Socialnomics: How Social Media Transforms the Way We Live and Do Business Socialnomics Revises Their Video on Social Media Statistics by Erik Qualman.
