Facebook Buys FriendFeed('s Team)

Facebook has just gotten a booster injection of engineering talent by acquiring social aggregator FriendFeed.

High pedigree FriendFeed team will join Facebook ranks for a while.

This is a strategic move for IPO-bound Facebook. Since day one FriendFeed folks have been out-innovating Facebook engineering. Now when the team is brought in the house we can expect another Facebook spurt towards the dominance on the web.

As to FriendFeed the service, my feel is it's safe to close your account and move on with life.
