[Draft, Updated 8:26 am EDT] I just tried FFholic for the first time this morning at 2 am. So I was lucky enough to be using FFholic as they added some wonderful new features to help FriendFeed addicts navigate the mass of information sailing down their computer screens.
(1) "Best of Person X"
(2) Top Rooms
(3) Top Photos
(4) Top Music
(5) Filter by Language
(6) FFHolic.com user at FriendFeed has statistics

(1) "Best of Person X" - Shows most liked/commented posts. Doesn't go back as far as it might, but it's an incredible way to look at people you've just discovered. Just click on any person icon.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some FFholic "Best of" pages:
Robert Scoble 16,412 est. subscribers (#1) 3,318 subscriptions (#3)
Thomas Hawk 4,475 est. subscribers (#16) 4,484 subscriptions (#1)
Paul Buchheit 4,409 est. subscribers (#17) 248 subscriptions (#591)
Louis Gray 3,814 est. subscribers (#19) 379 subscriptions (#285)
Mona N 1,327 est. subscribers (#52) 627 subscriptions (#102)
(Problem 1A) # of subscribers is ~10-20% off - FFholic says I have "947 estimated subscribers, 837 public active subscribers" FriendFeed says 804 subscribers. I'm not sure how many of my subscribers are private. Robert Scoble says FFholic's subscriber count for him is in error by 2,000+.
Possible Reasons: FFholic says that it can't see private users, but my publicly active subscribers count of 837 is higher than my actual 804 subscriber count (which probably contains 20-50 private users). I also think that FFholic is using too high a ratio to get "estimated subscribers" because private users are probably less active than public users and subscribe to fewer people.
(Problem 1B) Most liked/commented posts is not finding everything. 10+ posts of mine have gone over 50 likes, and only 2 showed up on FFholic's page when I first viewed it.
Possible Reasons: FF API limits. FFholic may not be using the new reach which FF allows; i.e. Yuvi's "page 11 or item #0-399" limitation has been improved, and FF allows 1000 items to be viewed on selected pages (e.g. home page, public page). FFholic can also use "search by service" to dig deeper. I'

(2) Top Rooms - A feature we've been wanting for AGES! I discovered 6 new cool rooms in the top 30 that I didn't know about. I'm sure there are lots of other gems.
