this post didn't work in .admin.general... let's see if it works here:

Oh...
I think I get it now...
So every person will have:
*a Private channel that tracks groups or posts by your request. Only you can
can see what these are.
*A Public channel that also tracks groups or posts, but anyone can check out
what they are if they want to see what you're reading.
*A public guestbook in which people can point out stuff to you (as in: did you
see this post?). Other people who look at your channel see this.
*The same thing, except only you can see it.
Did I get that straight, or did I make a big mish-mash? :-)
