Here we have the concept of a "friends list". By adding other users to your friends list, you can easily keep track of what is going on in their lives from your friends page. Friends aren't limited by individuals, you can add asylums and syndicated feeds to your friends list as well.
Invite a Friend | Invite a friend to create a InsaneJournal account |
Edit Friends | Add or remove users from your friends list, or edit the colors used to represent them. |
Edit Custom Friends Groups | Create, edit, or delete subgroups of your friends. These friend groups can be used to filter your friends list: you can pick a specific friend group to view. |
Friends Filter | Filter your friends list according to specific subgroups. |
Nudge a Friend | Nudge a mutual friend who hasn't posted recently to let them know that you want to hear from them. |
Your friends list is also used for posts with restricted access. You can find out more about friends list security at Friends & Security Levels
