Introducing Feedalizr - Is Adobe AIR better than the Facebook Platform?

feedalizrAdobe AIR apps are the new hotness. We're seeing more and more pop up every single day. It's looks like the AIR platform is turning into the Facebook Platform on steroids.

Why? Because it's cross platform, and what a brilliant move by Adobe on that. You can install an AIR app on Mac or PC in a blink. Not only that, but it runs lightweight as all heck.

The latest app that has everyone talking is a desktop compliment to the increasingly popular FriendFeed. Introducing Feedalizr.

With FriendFeed's pretty neat Remote Key system, you can allow apps to access your FriendFeed stream. So getting Feedalizr going once you have Adobe AIR installed is a snap.

Some of the things that Feedalizr lets you do from your desktop:
  • Filter updates by service, such as Flickr, Pownce, and Twitter
  • Filter updates by friend, so if you just want to see Robert Scoble's mega-galacta-stream you can
  • Post videos - which is rather seamless, and records right from your cam in the app
  • Drag and drop photos and upload right to Flickr
  • Get instant updates in that nice slick slidey fashion on the bottom right hand side of your desktop
FriendFeed has a public API and has no official apps, but this appears to be as close as you could possibly get to one. It's very slick, and gets the job done.

It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet. They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
