In this episode: We get all giddy speaking to one of the founders of FriendFeed, Paul Buchheit! We chat about the site’s origins, philosophy, the future and the awards night we filled with toilets. We also discuss stripes, spots and tripping balls! Then comes the great shaving of Johnny’s Beard… *sniff*… Listen up kids, this one’s a doozy :)
