This thread makes it seem like the general opinion is that an automatically generated news feed would be better.<p>It wouldn&#x27;t.  Not for end users anyways.  It would be a marketer&#x27;s dream.<p>If you feel like that&#x27;s the way things should be, write one.  Make it popular.  Sell it to Facebook.  (And use the money to buy stock in your roommate&#x27;s new online marketing firm)
