One has to wonder if indeed something like a real time interview of some-one using FriendFeed would be an interesting possibility and where it could lead. The reason I ask is that just now Jeremiah Owyang asked Louis Gray a fairly straight forward question which was followed by Louis’ answer and then some more questions. It was Mark Trapp who actually raised the idea of live FriendFeed interviews as you can see below
You have to admit this could actually be a really interesting way to conduct an interview or at least get one started. The only thing that would make it easier is if FriendFeed would finally add deep threading within comments.
What do you think about something like crowdsourcing interviews?
Think it's a great idea. Why not fold into your plan to profile bloggers by interviewing them real-time at the time you post to FF about their site?

I like the idea. If I were somebody worth interviewing (that's debatable), it could be fun, especially if it were a set time in advance. This was a silly ad hoc response, which I am more than happy to partake in. But part of me says “the emperor has no clothes”, so the more data I give, the more apparent that's clear.

It's like a live chat with an audience, only slower, but with a better “transcript”. I like the idea.
