Friendslist help wanted!

I know you're all clever, clever people, so can you help me out with my problem?

I currently have 260-odd people friended plus 10 communities. Needless to say, attempting to go through my friendslist is already murder, so I was hoping someone could suggest friendsgroups to create, since on one hand, I don't want to miss potential fun, but on the other, I don't have the time to go through all posts every day, and I would like to have Jake at least shuffling into his classes, even if it's late.

And the only group I have set up so far is Newspaper. *wry*

...and that was the longest sentence ever up there.
Am just home from work and dead tried. Please excuse me.

ETA: I knew y'all were clever. *grins* Much thanks.

I filtered mine into "Friends" - as in, personal journals of students, teachers, etc., and "Official," which is [livejournal.com profile] fandomhigh, dorms, ooc, etc. Makes it a lot faster, because this way I read the "Official" one first and actually manage to find my classes, and then I can read everyone's journals.

Hope that makes sense, and if you have a more efficient system, let me know.

That is a kickass idea. Thanks.

Hee! I did:


OOC - which is just the OOC comm
school - which is pretty much just fandomhigh
afterschool - townies, clubs, etc.
students - all the student journals, and fandomdorms
staffaculty - all the staff/faculty journals
townies - which is, I'm realizing now, kind of redundant

Eventually, when Max gets some actual "friends," I'll create a list of people that I talk to the most, so I can check that one more regularly.

Yeah, I figure I ought to actually further filter the friends one, because that way I don't have to fish through people who Rory doesn't talk to.

By the way? "Staffaculty" = my new favorite word. (It used to be "oligopoly.")

STFU! No way! I love ogliopoly! In fact, that's what our network is named, at home. I love connecting to my comcast-router'd network by clicking on "ogliopoly"! XD!

Heh, I do that... but just by visiting the comms themselves. I haven't even bothered going to my friends page. if I set up a filter, it would probably be a group for fandomhigh, fandomclinic, and fandomhigh_dorm.

That's too bad, because a lot of people are playing out of their journals. The filtered friends list is pretty cool. At least, it works for me.

Hmm, that's a good point...I have a few things posted in my own.

And I was JUST reading your glasses/broken nose post over on the dorms. Totally laughing my arse off.
