Title:
Enhancements to "find users with similar interests"

Area:
interests

Summary:
There is a nice feature on http://www.dreamwidth.org/interests called "Find people or communities with interests similar to those of:" However, a few changes could be made to make the results more user-friendly.

Description:
I am not sure whether many people know this feature, but to find other users with similar interests, you can use the "Find people or communities with interests similar to those of:" feature on http://www.dreamwidth.org/interests .

However, the results of that search are a bit... wonky. I'd suggest a few things:

1. Don't show deleted users. We can't subscribe to them anyway.

2. Have an option to not show people you already subscribe to - this page is a bit cluttered with people I already read for me.

3. Split in personal and OpenID accounts. subscribing to OpenID accounts is kind of pointless, so I'd rather see them in a separate list, as this tool seems to be designed to find people to read.

I think that's what I can come up with right now. I am sure more could be done with that page.
