In the interest of making Following one's Interests even more fun [or just more manageable anyway, whew! Some channels have a LOT of stories] you can now add any story to your home channel. Just click on the Favorite's star next to the story.
Everyone who has registered has a home channel. Mine is at Michael Mattters. I've had so many favorite stories over the last year, but it will take me awhile to find them all again so I can Favorite them [which is the reason we added this feature in the first place :-). It has been just too darn easy to lose track of some of the greatest stories here].
You can also add Favorite Channels to your home channel, by clicking on the favoriting star at the top right of the channels. This will put a link to them right near the top of the page on your home channel - so you can more quickly cruise them.
Oh, and getting to your home page is as easy as clicking on 'home' at the very top right of any page on Mattters [just like it used to be on Twitter].
We need people to register for this particular feature because, well, it just would not be so great to have strangers adding and removing stories from *your* personal home channel, know what I mean? As always, you can still vote and do everything else without having to register.
Have fun!

Mattters Adds Video
Last month we added support for playing several types of video directly on Mattters. We are hoping this will increase the pleasure of the overall 'Following Your Interests' experience. Or at least, decreases the pain a little.
We currently support video from 4 different sources: YouTube, Vimeo, blip.tv and DailyMotion. This seems to cover most of the kinds of video we are finding in blog posts and tweets and websites. If there is anther one you would like us to support, just let us know!
The channels that make the most use of video right now are the Music channels and the Sports channels, especially Football and Basketball.
