Don’t Clone FriendFeed!

An email today alerted me about the latest FriendFeed clone, Lifestream.fm. Like everybody’s favorite social app du jour, Lifestream also lets you aggregate your various online services, be it twitter, your blog, StumbleUpon, or whatever else, into one continuous stream. But unlike FriendFeed, you can’t comment or "like" people’s items, filter out or hide items, or interact with a stream in any way.

The interface, if anything, is less FriendFeed like, and more twitter-like, showing your followers and who you are following in nearly the same way as Twitter.

One thing I noticed about Lifestream is that everyone I found on there seemed to be from Ecuador, so maybe it’s just going to be FF for Spanish folks? That’s OK I guess…if they want their own thing…but what a pale imitation of the real thing this is.
