The problem is we'll never really know for sure. We don't know if our friends are just ignoring us or if they've even seen our posts. Edgerank is a good idea, when our friends/likes/subscribes get high, but if implemented incorrectly, you can end up missing a lot of updates that are relevant to you.

It's a really hard problem to solve. I wish Facebook would let me choose certain people and say "Put everything this person/band/page posts into my newsfeed".
