Meta-Metafilter Filter Question
July 18, 2008 7:27 AM Subscribe
Although I heart Ask Mefi, there are some categories I really don't care about (the "I'm going to be traveling to [Genericville] this summer. What should I see while there?"-type questions for example). No offense. They're just not my cuppa soup.
Is there a way to filter out certain categories (perhaps Travel & Transportation in my case for example) on my Ask MeFi homepage the way you can on Slashdot or Digg, for example? I checked the Preferences page but didn't see anything helpful on the subject.

Response by poster: Er, nevermind. I was looking through preferences, but not under My AskMefi, which deals exactly with this.
Sorry for wasting everyone's electrons.

You can also set up a Yahoo Pipe to do filtering on keyword. I block cities and countries I've no interest in, as they arise. A couple of weeks, and you've nailed all the common ones.
