Ok, so I’m weird. I have an obsession with chips and salsa. I seriously could eat it all the time and be perfectly happy with it. So, while thinking about some great salsa I had a couple days ago interspersed with thinking about social media, I came up with a conclusion. FriendFeed is like salsa. How you may ask?
Well, it’s actually quite a simple explanation. The reason why salsa is so great is because it generally starts with the same few basic ingredients: tomatao, onion, jalapeno, cilantro, etc. From those basic ingredients, and with the addition of others, you can create many different forms of salsa. Everyone has their own variations. That’s how FriendFeed isn’t it? You start with all the same basic ingredients: Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, RSS or your other favorite services. From those basic ingredients you create your own variations of FriendFeed. That’s what so great about the service, it is a different experience for everyone that uses it. Kinda like salsa. Salsa is always different, even if you buy the same brand more than once.
See, told you it was a simple explanation.
Do you like salsa as much as I do? See the connection that I’m making here? What are your thoughts?
