Follow-all is great for Twitter! Can we extend it to follow all for github also? Cheers!

webmaven commented 13 years ago

Let's extend it to multiple social networks, such as status.net/identi.ca, flickr, and so on.

This could be cool. Specifically for GitHub. Does GitHub have a notion of lists? If not it could be easy to mock list behavior with a YML file containing usernames. Terrible idea?

Terrible idea. I think you will quickly find that the scale of Code for America projects overwhelms Github's puny notification system. In fact, most people end up turning off email notifications which is why I can answer all your issues this morning with the assumption that few other people will see the thread let alone reply :-)

BUT, I think Code for America would benefit from a central place for storing/managing accounts, for example:

I disagree. I like following people on github for the news feed. I think this is a good idea. But then again I get all the emails still too.
