Webware on FriendFeed
Webware has a nice interview with Paul Buchheit and Bret Taylor of FriendFeed fame. I the interview the cover the vision they have for FriendFeed, any expansion plans the team has and of course the all to typical questions on how FriendFeed plans on making money with the service
FriendFeed is currently not bringing in revenues. While the founders have not settled on a business model yet, Taylor did notice that the FriendFeed philosophy–it’s a site for finding things to read more on and has "very little actual socializing"–is consistent with advertising that works. Since users can include feeds that can be monetized (Netflix movies queued up; Last.FM music tracks listened to), it’s possible that the site could make affiliate revenues when users follow up on friends’ content recommendations. Standard in-line advertising (like Pownce has) is another possibility.
Along with the typical interview Webware also has a video of the interview for you to watch - which I have embedded below
