Facebook groups to track certain friends

Question posed on Facebook: This question was asked.... "Is there a way to set a "friend" as preferred so you don't loose their feeds behind other clutter. I don't want to have to hide others to keep my page clean. I am interested in keeping up to date with a particular individual for a while. Is there an easier way?" I thought Tweetdeck ???? But HOW?

***

My answer: I haven't done that on Facebook, but do use Twitter lists a lot in that way (i.e. create lists of groups of people I want to monitor closely). Good idea re Tweetdeck (TD), that looks like it would work. In TD, go to "add column" (the + sign near top), then click "Use Facebook", then "create new group" (assuming you don't already have 1 created you can use). Name the group, pick the people you want to follow in this group, and then you'd have a column of their newsfeed you can look at. (I didn't go all the way through creating a new FB group but it should work).
