They also copied the timeline feature from Twitter.

Before that, people had a wall and you could go there and read what they wrote and poke them ... remember poking?

They do seem rather good at buying good product companies or copying ideas, which could serve them well in the metaverse-space (ugh...), once it's established.

No, they bought FriendFeed for that.

I miss that site. It had a real sense of community, threaded conversations that worked, no suggested posts, no adverts woven into the content. Then it was gone.
