Yep it seems many of us are treating the service respectfully and trying not
to overwhelm the "followers". I have mixed feelings on if this balance will
be maintained as more users come on board, as they inevitably do. Twitter
for example is starting to get messy. However, we all have the ability to
"unfollow" people who are sending out more noise than signal.

It's always been about signal to noise.

I'm with you in that I have my original content published feeds, and I have everything else. That's why I don't drop links into my twitter stream but instead use another one for links. I try to monitor my own sharing to keep down the ratio.

I've found the various filters to be super-helpful, and I'm pleased with the results.

I made an intentional choice to stream everything I listen to on last.fm, which is when we discovered that FriendFeed does not currently allow you to selectively hide one "blog" but view others. But I found that commenting on songs in my feed is easier than blogging about them. Once FriendFeed can hide selective blogs, the noise problem for some of my readers will go away.
