Follow System

Recently many networking websites have implemented a follow system whereas people could follow or lets say "style stalk" an HA maker but I think it would be much more beneficial to SF's members if a little column on everyone's profiles showcased everyone that they're following & their followers.

What are your guys views on this suggestion?

Personally I thought it would be pretty neat. :Q

We like this idea and we're considering implementing it as a premium perk, however, some people might feel uncomfortable about other people knowing who they are following.

But for now we have threads in the forums for discussion however if you're interested in sharing!

You say some may want to keep their followers private, perhaps you guys could arrange it so that the user has a choice on whether he would like to have the column embedded into his profile!
Or you could just have a "user _____ has # followers!" so people can't exactly know whom is following who.

I don't know, just another part of this suggestion although I'm really curious, why would it be just a premium perk if its so..standard? :]

Well if we give people the option it probably won't be a perk, but if people are interested in knowing who is stalking them it might be the selling point in purchasing a premium account. I know I'd like to know who is style-stalking me!
