Barbara, it does. Here's a how-to on hiding: http://www.louisgray.com/live/... - Louis Gray

Barbara I think the already exists -- check the details of the hide function - Brian Sullivan

IMO what you share and what people see are going to be different, due to the ability to hide types of entries. My opinion is "share it, let everyone else filter their own view"... the only exception would be for the blog type, since you can't filter one without filtering the rest. - J·Phil·Glockner

thanx @Louis. Learn something new each day @FF. w00t! - Barbara K. Baker

I'm with everyone else: let your subscribers shape the noise. - Akiva Moskovitz

The only place where there is a flaw and being careful of what you include is in a issue is with RSS feeds/blogs where the user can only turn them all off or on - no individual switch currently exists - Brian Sullivan

Depends on what you want your FF conversations to revolve around. If you want to keep your SU/Digg convos siloed @SU and Digg, then it makes sense. - Katina Beckham French

Digg and Reddit feeds just create noise. However they are important to see what interesting stories are out there. Keep them. - MikeonTV

Because we can hide whichever feeds we want, it is not an issue. I say share everything and let your followers filter. - Rob Diana

I don't think you should. You should share everything that you can - and the onus is on us and Friendfeed to filter/cope. I'm against reducing things to the lowest common denominator in most cases! - Andrew Girdwood

I rarely pay attention to anyone's Digg, SU, etc submissions on FF but don't find it distracting when it's there.

Akiva - that's a great way of putting it. I might quote you. Done. http://flipside.scribkin.com/p... Brian - I just removed my identi.ca feed because it would be categorized under 'blog' and therefore not easily hide-able if people don't like my pointless blathering. - J·Phil·Glockner
