My dashboard is mostly Mr. X and Ms. Y are now colleagues.

[Jeff Rabinowitz]

I have made an effort to become a bit more active here on BP. When I check my dashboard it is almost entirely Mr. X and Ms. Y are now colleagues. It seems I have accepted requests from 3 or 4 people who want to be colleagues with everyone on the site. (I deleted a couple people from my colleague list but the problem persists.) Is there a way to filter out the colleague notifications so that I might be able to find what people are asking and talking about more easily?

The only way to clear it up is to remove those people as connections.

I'm not sure that is a viable option as one of the efforts on this board is to make contacts rather than remove them. Perhaps some new programming in the near future could allow for the user to turn on and off new colleague notifications?
