It's really sad to see such a great service as FriendFeed not really taking off. As has been said, the service is probably a bit overwhelming for new users simply because of the amount of data coming in from each of your friends and rooms (even if you follow just one or two people). I also have to agree with most of the points Lewis Gray wrote about how to improve FriendFeed to open it up to new users. I especially have to agree with "FriendFeed Needs to Better Define What It Is and How People Use It". It has tons of features but every time you hear "FriendFeed", someone else mentions Twitter and a comparison starts. Even if the two of them are not really comparable, in my opinion. For example, I registered on FF soon after it went live and all I used it for was content aggregation. I knew that I could also use it for commenting on stuff and much more but never really used it that way.
