Add a followfriday tag feed to the "latest things" page
Title:
Add a followfriday tag feed to the "latest things" page
Area:
tags, latest things feed
Summary:
The Latest Things page (http://www.dreamwidth.org/latest) could include a tag feed to journal entries tagged "followfriday".
Description:
Follow Friday is a twitter trend that some Dw users are taking up to spread the word about their favourite comms, feeds, and journals on Dw. A comm, <lj comm="followfriday"> has been created to collect links to people's FF posts. The drawback of the comm is that a new Dw user needs to be told it's there first, to be able to use it for it's purpose: finding comms, feeds, and journals that they're interested in and would like to follow/read.
Follow Friday posts do of cause come up under the Latest Things feed, which any new Dw user can find. Adding a tag feed for these specific posts would make them all the more easy to find (not just for new users, but old ones too). Much like twitter's hashtag, these public posts would then be easily accessible to anyone.
