Artist's Comments
note that this was made pre-v6, before I knew what the new message center looked like, and it's also super rushed.
The idea is to allow us to split our deviantWATCH into at least two groups - our friends/peers, and everything else. We watch two types of people: close friends and peers (our community), and artists who's art we just like. I only have a few dozen 'close' friends compared to the hundreds of artists I watch because of their great art, and it's easy for me to miss something a friend submitted amongst the thousands of deviations. I think it's important to make it easier to focus on the deviants who matter most to us, while also allowing us to continue to appreciate all the wonderful art shared by the wider community. This is just a quick mockup to give people something to see, it is open to discussion, and I've actually left out ideas. It's meant as a companion to the description above, and for my journal on the matter: Comments. A solution? Comments
no one, it's just a concept design for now.
I think so too
 cheers. not exactly satisfied with it, but hopefully it communicates the idea.
 like the rss feed we (very) briefly discussed a lil while ago..
I approve of this idea. -- go to hell... in style [`mirrorkills] YES! I was actually contemplating hacking together a greasemonkey script to do this, using the RSS feeds as a data source, but their lack of thumbs killed my motivation. If I could find an easy way to get thumbs, we'd be set
I think perhaps, what would be cool is if we could use the mark-all/mark-none options on a per-group basis. That'd make it easier to change any of the options, as I imagined the 'send deviations to stream' would be an extra option (along with friend/journal/deviation/scrap.) ...though after some thinking, I think it might be better to use the 'friend' checkbox to decide where to send the deviations. It'd give context, meaning and purpose to an option that is otherwise kinda pointless.

 reports, 1d 4h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.63 The Annual 2009 Christmas Caption Contest!$Tachy-on

Critiques
One thing that's always bugged me about the current devWATCH is that I do like watching people, but I get clogged with all their artwork and submissions. I'd love to be able to keep a select few friends separate from the rest so i can focus on my 'Friend' network, but still be able to keep track and watch people for my 'Community' network.
With the current devWATCH, it's just a big mess of deviations, and like your comments for the mockup say, you can easily lose a deviation amongst the thousands of others.
Some might not use it for their friends, but instead, use the ARTstream for people who's art you specifically like, and then use the devWATCH portion for your friends and others that you want to watch and keep track of.
All in all, I think it's a wonderful idea. And, in the worst case, people wouldn't have to use it if they didn't really want to.
I know I would.
