This is a missed opportunity. As Shirky points out, social media is &quot;publish, then filter&quot;, and you&#x27;ve found a powerful filter that lets you reap the benefits. (And he also points out power laws--10% of the people in your feed post 90% of the garbage.)<p>While I don&#x27;t log in to Facebook more than once every six months, your observation gives me hope that I might be able to find some utility in it.
