Is there a way to follow a particular person (or List&lt;Person&gt;) easily? Some people answer the questions in a very educative way, and I don't want to miss them.

I've been looking around and I can't seem to find an automatic (i.e. buzz- or Twitter-like) way to follow users inside Stack Exchange. Why haven't the developers added such a feature? It could help beginner users follow other beginners with the same interests. We would be able to learn from each others' questions and pitfalls. Also, it would reduce double posting.

The bug appears, with my account, in every post that haven't any answer yet. At the bottom just above the "Your Answer" section, I always see:     Know someone who can answer? Share a link to this question via email,   , , or .   In my mind, there should be a link to share to Twitter, Facebook, or other social networks, but I'm on any of these.

I know of one person who is following my proposal who doesn't show up on the proposal webpage.    My proposal is for quantitative finance: .  It shows 19 people following the proposal (on the side of the page), and the total listed at the top of the page is 19 followers.  Yet one user is not listed: .  This makes me wonder if other followers are also not being counted?

I'm developing a social network which has a feature similar to twitter's follow/following setup. At the moment I have the following (hehe) terminology on the site:  follower - someone who follows you followers - group of people who follow you  I'm also using following at the moment to describe a group of people you are following. However, this also has the meaning of a group people who follow you.  So what is the correct terminology for:   a group of people you follow on social media? a person you follow? and how can you refer to the photos uploaded by the group of people you follow?   The only thing I can find so far is 'who you follow' which is a bit wordy.

The -interest list  and  has decided to use both Stack Overflow for questions and Google groups dicussions for ANTLR users. There seems to be problems with new Stack Overflow users trying to effectively monitor the ANTLR tags. I created a  for just the ANTLR tags, but how do I allow others to follow it? Do I just give the link as I did here? (I would not be surprised if this is a duplicate, I just could not find the original.)

Am I so myopic as to not see the obvious link somewhere? I came looking for it immediately after seeing King Atwood's post but couldn't find it.  It seems appropriate to just put the list on the "reputation" tab of user profile, or at least a prominent link.

I wonder how a researcher send an unsolicited email to another one asking for feedback to their work. I guess it will be something like this?  Hello Dr. X To introduce myself, I am Y, in institute Z. I'm sorry if this email is not convenient at this time, but my work about A is highly relevant to your work in B, so I think it will be interesting to you too. If possible, can you take a look at it and tell me what you think? Here is the link:  Thank you for your reading, hope you enjoy it.  I wonder if the summary/abstract should be included in the email too, since the principle for  is to show everything you know about it. Maybe it's not necessary, since the title of the link should prove its interestingness nevertheless? I'd like to have your confirm. I'm also interested in the case where Y has no Z, and the link is just a collection of observations posted in a blog, not a full paper with proper citation and literary review. It is possible that the observations may have been covered in the field, but Y isn't aware of that yet. I also think that if the link is interesting enough, then putting a tracking method in there is fine too? Even if they finds out, they wouldn't feel insulted either, because they find that the link is indeed interesting.  Related: •  •  •

The social network "ILM" has a lot of members. It is well known: If you choose any 4 members of the network, then one of these 4 members is a friend of the other 3.      Proof: Is then among any 4 members always one who is a friend of all   members of the social network "ILM"?   Note: If member A is a friend of member B then member B is also a friend of member A.  I don't find an approach right now. Any kind of help or advice will be really appreciated.

At the moment, I actively participate in Stack Overflow. I would like to be able to participate in others (Project Management for instance). I can do this but I have to watch two "Interesting" lists. Imagine wanting to participate actively in 10 sites. How would you manage?  I think it would be great if, alongside tags, I could also select sites to include questions for.

I was thinking about this issue from time to time but I didn't know whether it really exists or just an speculation on my side until today when I woke up [!], I saw  downvoted (in the meantime I'll leave that answer unedited for the sake of discussion; note that this is just a sample. I'm not asking "how to deal with this specific answer." The question is completely general as it's nearly impossible to keep track of all of your answers to see whether they require updating or not). While the downvoter didn't explain a thing, I suspect the reason is that the answer is no longer applicable (It's one of the new features in iPhone OS 3.0). As we go to celebrate a long sequence of birthdays for Stack Overflow (hopefully!), we're going to see lots of answers become obsolete. How we're going to deal with this issue?

Is there a way to follow the questions and answers posted by a developer on Stack Overflow?

I went looking for answers to a question I had, but didn't find what I was looking for.  Now that I've found the answer myself, I'd like to share what I've learned.  What's the best way to do this, if nobody else has asked the exact question I did?  Should I ask the question myself, and immediately post my own answer?  Or should I mark the question as a tutorial in the title?  ("Tutorial: How to ABC when using XYZ")

I was really surprised with the way Stack Overflow question  was answered. One user had posted two answers ( and ) instead of using the "Edit" option on any one of the posts. The most surprising thing is the upvotes. The answers posted by the user got three upvotes for both of the answers. Is this the correct way of using the answering mechanism?  Please provide your thoughts.

I have tried tweeting someone I follow couple of times.  My tweets appear on my profile but when I look at the other person's timeline, my tweet is not there. I am following him but he is not following me.

For almost every question there's a list of "related" questions on the right.  How are those questions selected? Is it based solely on tags? Can I do anything if I see a question on the list that is really not related to prevent it from being incorrectly listed?

Related Posts:              I was thinking about .  and I thought being able to leave a comment on a user profile would be a nice solution. Once in a while I have a question for a specific person. Once I notice a person doing OSdev and wanted to know about his projects he was working on. I remember a person mentioning a paper he did and I wanted to ask him more. I'm sure he didn;t notice my comment because he has many replies (which get commented on) and isn't on the site for days at a time. If he decided to look at his profile comments I am sure he would have a higher chance of noticing it.  I would like comments on user profiles. I dont think flamewars would be an issue and would be hard to follow if you cant reply back on the same page (you either cant post on your own profile and if you can the other person would be notified of the comment which may slow it down)

I have looked at the various help pages but I couldn't find a clear guideline for the following issue: often enough someone will ask in the same post (i.e. in the same SE-question) a whole bunch of questions (in the plain English sense of the word), which while may be about the same topic are nevertheless sufficiently distinct that each may require several paragraphs of text to answer adequately.   I can see an upside for leaving related questions grouped together from the asker's perspective: "there's a thread (on SE) answering all my questions about topic T!" On the other hand, from the perspective of organizing questions by having a clear heading/title for each (actual) question and so forth, i.e. from the perspective of SE being a fairly structured database of Q&amp;As instead of being a more like a collection of forum threads "I'm confused about topic T", the omnibus question-list approach seems clearly sub-optimal.  The omnibus approach also makes the issue of accepting answers (and perhaps reviewing such actions) difficult: if two different users give replies to different parts/sub-sets of the question-list, which one is the most adequate one? Even upvoting all partial answers seems iffy because it actually penalizes the user(s) who provides(s) the most complete answer to the question-list: since a user can only give at most one upvote to another user's answer, if user X provides answers to A &amp; B in the same SE-answer, he can only get at most one upvote from user Y, whereas if these were two different SE-answers, he could get two upvotes from user Y.  So, given the above problems, which I think are real enough, is there anything in the SE system addressing list-of-questions question splitting?
