Google power users reject suggested user list
- ggchappell 15y agoDirect link to Scoble's 13 reasons (mentioned in the article): https://plus.google.com/111091089527727420853/posts/JN6mD71bWhJ https://plus.google.com/111091089527727420853/posts/JN6mD71b... And his subsequent comments ("What is better than a suggested user list?"): https://plus.google.com/111091089527727420853/posts/LcvKDZYG2HB https://plus.google.com/111091089527727420853/posts/LcvKDZYG... From the latter post: > By focusing on content Google's staff can reward behavior it wants to see here. That is a very useful "stick" to use in community management. Does it want us to share more videos? Then put more videos on the "post of the day" lists. Does it want us to write more helpful content? Then post more helpful posts on "post of the day" lists. Right now the suggested user lists just tell us to focus on being more popular. Not really good memes to feed a community. Really? He expects lots of people to post (say) videos in the realistic hope of making some kind of worldwide top-ten list?
