a social web widget announcing your followers/friends/etc.

The interface is beautiful and the site is a real joy to use... The service was created by Ted Roden ... The user experience on the site is a real home run; from browsing through the beautifully displayed items from other users to interacting with the site's basic functionality.

There's even an API for integration with outside services; though we dare anyone to try to make a cooler interface, it would be nice to see Enjoysthin.gs on FriendFeed.
