I was kicking something similar to what kleinbl00 suggested above around in my head last night -- how about an account called announcements or (I would say hubski but that's taken) something that's mandatory for everyone to follow?

Similar to reddit's mandatory subreddit, I guess, although their announcements are never relevant to me at all so let's do better there.

I think we should name it Tom, you know a little nod to myspace. Really that's what mk uses the Hubski account for. When he makes an update from it it goes in to everyones feed.

Another thing I didn't know.

Bearing in mind that "announcements" isn't mandatory on Reddit, it's something you have to unsubscribe from. That said, I think that would work nicely.

Oh! Assumed you couldn't unsubscribe or something. Haha. But yeah, I don't always see all of mk's announcements/site notes, even though I follow 50 of the most active hubskiers. Newer users are adrift in the storm.
