This is a shocking but interesting news. Facebook has acquired FriendFeed. FriendFeed is mostly used for combining our all online accounts (Twitter, Facebook, SU etc) and staying updated to others. It is not good as Twitter and has a small user base compared to Facebook and Twitter. But FriendFeed has many great features that gives more controls to users. Facebook was trying to acquire it from a long time and finally FriendFeed has accepted their request.
Future of FrienFeed
FriendFeed mentions that it will continue its services. FriendFeed employees and Founders get positions in the Facebook team. You can long to your FriendFeed accounts using the same info. you used till now. Facebook can now bring more features from FriendFeed and improve present features.
Will it affect Twitter?
Most of the FriendFeed content is delivered by Twitter users, there are very less users who update their status from FriendFeed. FriendFeed is a platform for combining all social media activity and Twitter has a major role in it. So as of now it will not affect Twitter.
So what do you think about this? Will it affect Facebook or Twitter?
