XF 2.0 Is there any way to follow resources?

[entelechy]

Is anyone aware of any functionality or existing addons that make following a resource possible in the same way that you can follow a person?

You can watch a resource, plus you can also watch the thread for the resource (and receive emails as well as notifications if you wish). This is built-in functionality.

Thanks, so is there any significant difference in following a person and watching a resource? ie. when you follow a person you have their posts show in your news feed and it reflects in your profile that you follow them from my understanding.

With watching a resource do posts by the creator of the resource and posts from the discussion area show in your news feed and reflect in the profile area as well?

No. But unlike your news feed, you will get notifications (and emails if desired) alerting you to new updates to resources and new replies in the resource discussion thread.
