I like FriendBinder so far. The ability to see all my people’s updates from different sites in a plain chronological list is very cool.

What I’m missing is the interaction… I can see any and all updates in status people have made, things they’ve written… but to actually comment on or in any way respond to any given item, I need to go to another site.

Having said that; I’m not sure that’s a bad thing. I’m reminded of Dave Winer’s statement that the best way to have a site that people want to go to is to send them away:

People come back to places that send them away. Memorize that one.

So maybe FriendBinder’s static display of updates is not such a bad idea. I guess time will tell. As it is, between the bacn (:sigh, yes I’m actually using the term) and sites like FriendBinder, I’m finding that I don’t actually ever need to visit Facebook at all, unless I actually need to respond to something there that I can’t do from anywhere else. To me, that is valuable.
