Mashable Follow Opens to All
Pete Cashmore, Mashable
Ten weeks ago we announced the private beta test of Mashable Follow, a new social layer at Mashable that lets you follow the topics that interest you, create a profile on the site, share stories to your multiple social networks in a single click, connect with friends and much more. We’re pleased to say the private beta has been extremely successful, and now we’re opening up Mashable Follow to all our users. We appreciated all of the feedback that we received from our beta users and going forward we’re still seeking your feedback on how we can improve. Please let us know if you have ideas.
