Same here. I also filter out topical subjects I have little to no interest
in.
The problem with filters is they are not newbie friendly.
We should be pushing new people towards the applications list.
One of the goals of this group (I think) is to spread Linux use into
"non-geek" computer neophytes. People who just use computers without
wanting or caring to know how they work. Making filters in Outlook
Express or whatever is not really that hard. But, I can tell you from
experience, some doctors, lawyers, executives and stay-at-home parents
simply will not spend the little brain power it takes to understand a
filter.
Exactly who we want on the applications list rather than neck deep in geek
speak on this list :).
Maybe we should think of the applications list as our PR list.
