I love information. So for me, the more ways I can tune in to what others are finding, the happier I am. CliKball is a new social browsing tool that lets you share links with friends and notifies you in real-time when your friends share links.
After a quick and easy installation (available as an add-on for Firefox or Flock users), you can CliKball any web page by simply clicking on the little red happy face in your toolbar. Actually, it’s a little red face sticking its tongue out at you. Cuz CliKball’s fun like that. You can create a discussion by adding comments to any CliKballed link. You can also create groups of friends if there is specific information you want to share with a particular group of people.
CliKball’s download page says they can be integrated with FriendFeed and Twitter, although I have not yet found an option to do that. Perhaps it’s being planned for the future.
The service needs to build up its user base (like any other social web tool) in order to become really useful, so I’ll hope you’ll download CliKball and join me.

I’m one of the creators of clikball. Thanks for the write up
We need to do a better job of exposing friendfeed/twitter integration. We just added it a couple of weeks ago so it is still being tweaked.
To add your friendfeed/twitter account you click the big red ball in your firefox toolbar you can see there is a link to “add twitter/friendfeed” at the bottom.
Right now all of the twitter/friendfeed integration is done exclusively on the client. So we never see your passwords and you set it up in your browser.
Hope this helps and happy cliking!
Ah ha! Thanks for the explanation, Jesse.
