Andy, I can quickly point out a couple of differences. FriendFeed generates a “smarter” feed. Here is an example feed item:

“shared How to Build a Credible Blog, iphone.pipes.yahoo.com: Access your mashup while mobile, and 1 other item on Google Reader”

Notice that instead of generating three items, it combined all three into one. Moreover, FriendFeed changes the verb “shared” based on the service. For example, “posted … on Twitter”, “shared … on Google Reader”, “published … on Flickr”.

Second, unlike Tumblr, you can actually comment on items shared on FriendFeed. I have also noticed that FriendFeed aggregates much faster than Tumblr. On the other hand, Tumblr is like a blog, you can post directly to it. You can not do that with FriendFeed.

These are the things that I can think of right now. Of course, FriendFeed is still in Beta, and you know what that means.
