How I almost killed Facebook

fleaflicker has a "front office" feed displaying a league's recent activity. I launched it 4 months before facebook's friend feed. A cool idea but hardly original or patentable.

It's almost surely patentable, I think. A generic activity feed is not novel, of course, but the context (using it for social activities, methods for selecting what appears in the feed) is significant.

It's also the major reason I'm not on Facebook. It makes stalkers out of friends and just isn't something I'm interested in.
