When you go to a persons page, you click "follow" and then they are your friend. I think these should be two separate things. I can follow anyone, but a separate request should be made to be there friend, and that request should require confirmation from the user.

In the main stream, for news stories, currently the icon shows as a default of "Spitterbot" regardless of which team the story is about.

In "MySpitter", when I am following several teams, that makes it impossible to visually scan the MySpitter page and know which of my favorite teams each story relates to.

Instead of the default "Spitterbot" icon, it should show the icon related to the team I am following. This would make it very easy to visually scan the MySpitter page and know which team each news story relates to.

Hottest trends, find a team, find fans around you, find friends, etc..

Staring at what looks like a twitter clone, it wasn't immediately obvious/compelling why I should do anything. Clearly it's sports-related, but beyond that, not clear what the value is, and what should be done next.

It'd be nice to know where your news is coming from, be it a blog or the AP or Rivals or the Cleveland Plain Dealer. The headlines tend to run together and it would help readers weed out the stories they've already read or don't have an interest in.

One or two of my friends are dominating my page but most of the activity is messages to other users (not me) and not about my teams. I'd be more interested in chatter directed to me or about my favorite teams.

Similar to how I can see a list of people following a person on Facebook and Twitter, I should be able to see a list of the other fans who follow a particular team on Spitter.

This will make it easier to discover and friend fans who like the same teams I do.

Enable the user to be able to decide which languages he accepts news feeds in. Example: If I don't speak Russian, I don't want to see any news feeds in Russian.

It would be great to have the channel logo next to the spitter feed to quickly browse/see what the post is about. Even maybe one-click on the channel logo to sort the posts.

I'm seeing a lot of posts come in that relate to ticket brokers selling tickets. Feel sort of (unintentionally) spammy to me. I'd rather see real discussions and real news, not ticket brokers spamming about selling tickets.

I would be in favor of automatically filtering out posts about tickets.

What do you think? Should this be filtered out of the posts?

Or keep as is?

I can't seem to find the Charleston Cougars listed in NCAA teams to follow. They don't have a football team, but have basketball, track and more.

Being dropped onto the "home page" with no real content to orient around, it might be useful to auto-suggest teams to follow that are based in that geography (based on IP).

Make it easy to follow from a list of that surrounding area, or perhaps, mark as ignore for those they don't want? Might be a chance to have people vote up/down for personalization.

Currently you can follow individual drivers on Formula1. It would be great to be able to follow 1) the whole sport 2) teams in addition to individual drivers

It's not possible! The only way I could do it was to add known user names (e.g., . . . /p/davideckoff) to call up his page.

Yikes! It has to be EASY to friend people!
