both products are great. Gmail enjoys the attention of a wider audience than AdSense (since the probability that a person (especially a nontechnical one) uses email is higher than the probability she / he uses AdSense) and that’s the reason why most of the people know him as the Gmail creator. to sum it up, he did pretty ingenious things at Google.

strange that Paul Buchheit is always named as Gmail creator. he also did AdSense, which I see as far more important to Google than Gmail very will be.
But yes, I really hope this will bring some great new tools and innovations to Facebook. And not only because the FriendFeed team is now stakeholder in Facebook, but because they believe in Facebook.

It is all about the team behind FriendFeed.

they now officially hired the man who created Gmail! it’s clearly a talent acquisition.

only a small percentage of facebook users use services like flickr, twitter etc. so, it doesn’t have that big impact on feedfriends.

i am crunching some numbers. is a good engineer worth 2 million dollars? that would add up to 22 million and something extra for the founders to a total of maybe $26 millions.
