This has probably been discussed somewhere and I just can’t find it in a search. (Feel free to point me to previous discussions.)

So many people write informative journal posts that I would like to follow them, but I don’t care to see their every observation on my update feed. Is there a way, or future plans, to follow just journal posts?

Thanks,  
Kimberlie
