I prefer Friendfeed over Facebook, but I think this may even bring better opportunities for Friendfeed to develop and test features. And if some of the features I have come to love in Friendfeed make it into Facebook... all the better experience for all (as Robert Scoble pointed out, another 300 million eople) Nice to read a positive article.
