Just me, mk, but...

Whilst I can filter useless, spammy feeds on Hubski and even when I do stumble across them can instantly recognise their lack by the lack of updots, the Hose neither filters nor does it distinguish for its followers between content, style, age or worth of any content.

So to the uninitiated, this list looks like a regular and equally valued set of posts from Hubski:

If it were me, I'd skip adding posts to the Hose from members who have been registered for less than 24 hours.

Actually, if it were me, I'd selfishly add a new feature which would let me filter posts that had been mutually filtered by any more than X of the people I already follow (and therefore trust). An extra checkbox: community filter. A database and logic hit building the feed? Community filtering a slippery slope?

And curate the Hose in a similar manner. More tricky, that, though, and more likely to attract accusations of censorship or provide opportunities for abuse maybe.
