A Few Suggestions For The Subscription Filters


I find that these FB subscription filters don’t really filter well enough.  Saying “All”, “Most” or “Only Important” doesn’t really cut it for me.  What does “Most” mean?  “Only Important” to whom?  
I’ve got some new embellishments for the “Status Updates” and “Photos” subscription filters. 

These two categories should most definitely be able to be sub-categorized.  That way you can screen out those that do not interest you… those that you are never going to “Like” or those on which you will never “Comment”.  The people who want to see these posts, and only these posts if they so choose, will be in hog heaven.  Additionally, the more you “Like” a certain type of post, the more you will automatically be shown this type of post.

This way, we can all be as socially connected as we wish to be.   

At whim, we can be uplifted to a lofty state of bliss or plummeted to the depths of despair… all at the click of a button… customizing our social interaction experience and, at the same time, alerting the powers-that-be to our marketing potential.  

Isn’t that really what social media is all about?
