Competitor of FriendFeed, <a href="http://www.profilactic.com/">Profilactic</a>, says they support 155 different services (FriendFeed only supports 28).</p>
<p>It&#8217;s pretty clear that only five are going to survive long term. So, that means deadpools, buyouts, mergers, etc. ahead.</p>
<p>Well, at least we&#8217;ll be able to search through all the stuff, thanks to <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/03/17/friendfeed-has-search-and-suddenly-looks-like-a-destination-site/#comment-2043615">a new FriendFeed search feature turned on tonight</a>.</p>
