Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way for Facebook users to tag a friend as a VIP and get his/her status updates (and ONLY those from the tagged person) sent to the user’s email or SMS?
The same would be even better for Twitter.
There are some folks whose updates or tweets I just don’t want to miss.
Let’s face it, a lot of us have so many FB connections and follow so many folks on Twitter, it’s impossible to read everyone’s updates/tweets all day, every day.
If you are like me, you have a lot of FB friends who post a lot but it’s always crap. There are the chronic braggers, those who think everyone wants to know what they’re having to lunch…you know the types. But then there are a few I do care about. I don’t want to unfollow or “unfriend” everyone, but do want priority updates or tweets sent to me.

Ideally, Facebook and Twitter would implement this directly into their services. Second best option is a third-party app to do all this. Thoughts?
