Funny that Facebook would buy Friendfeed, since it basically does what Facebook does. I read this as Facebook spending $50M to eliminate some competition. Me, I'm annoyed, because now Facebook has those account IDs that I very deliberately did not provide to Facebook. Meanwhile, Facebook launches a real-time search. Not that I'm going to be depending on Facebook for this, because it remains a black hole website - content goes in, but never comes out. More from Monkeybites.
