GitHub: Please give us back the old, informative news feed

It used to be, when someone I follow starred a repository, I could see the description in my news feed, so I had some clue what it was, and knew instantly if I wanted to check it out.

Now all I see is this lame list of "username/project", with no description, no information, no context, nothing. Oh, and a whole lot of whitespace in place of the missing description.

It sucks, taking the "social" out of social coding. I know you removed that as your motto, but this is too much. :(

GitHub, please give us back the old, informative news feed.

Thanks, a paying GitHub user since 2008.
