There will be! And soon! In the next gen, no doubt. In fact, it will weed out everything you don't like while populating your feed with only the desireable content you have yet to imagine you were missing. Actually, hubski does a pretty darn good job of this already, given sensible expectations. And I know it sounded like it, but I swear, I wasn't being sarcastic. I actually really like this new functionality, and may well make use of it. I just can't resist a good shtick when I see it, and I guess the theme does intrigue me: no matter how developed our methods of communication become, we are still left with versions of the same problems, I.e., 'why is this dullard casting shadows over my place in the sun?' Sad to say it, we just can't all get along. And, when you get down to it, the Amish solution to the problem seems kinda universal.
