In the past I’ve tested quite a few social networking and social bookmarking services, but I must admit that only a few caught my attention and made be become a long-term user. FriendFeed is one of them. The simplicity and ease of use really made my day when a friend of mine recommended me their services.

FriendFeed Got Friendlier

Even though some of you might already know, I wanted to tell you a bit about the new Beta FriendFeed and how FriendFeed just got a lot friendlier.

Let there be “Social”

And so it was. The new beta comes packed with some really nice and useful feature, long awaited by the community. Among them, the option of creating lists (groups) of friends from your subscriptions or FriendFeed’s recommendations.

Friends Lists

Another nice feature, very useful to those active in many rooms is the posibility of creating and personalizing a list favorite rooms, quickly accessible from a sidebar menu.

And that’s not all. Now you can also upload pictures for your posts with a multiple uploads option.

Still not enough? How about seeing everyone’s profile just as if it was your one homepage (here is mine), with a full list of items shared by their friends, their own subscriptions and much more? Now it’s possible.

And just to ansure a propper medium for all these cool new features, the Beta FriendFeed also received a design face-lift.

Congratulations to the people at FriendFeed. Good things come to those who listen to the needs of their community!
