I am very new to goodreads and am having trouble navigating the site.

There are several ways to add friends from my contacts or send a link to people I know, but I can't find a way to follow anyone else. I'm probably missing something really obvious, but I've looked all over the site and on Google, but the page with the solution has been taken down or something.

How do I search for and follow users that aren't already my friends?

Recently, my Samsung music has gotten stuck in shuffle mode, and I can't undo it. I've gone through all the settings, I've pressed every button that even looks remotely like a shuffle button, I've asked for help, but nothing is working. It plays the one song I select, then either goes to (what i think is) the queue, or just plays a random song I didn't even know I had.

It used to work normally. I could choose if I wanted to play my queue or just go through a playlist. I don't know what went wrong.

I've been on tumblr for a while now but I still don't really know how everything works. I've been really struggling to find specific posts or blogs for ages and I just don't know what to look for, or if there even is a better way.

There are a couple people I follow that have ongoing comics or stories, usually one chapter per post. Sometimes the posts get spread out or I lose the name of the person or whatever, and then it takes me AGES to find it again. Sometimes I have the name of the person but have to carefully scroll all the way to the bottom of the blog to find the post. Some people have a handy little page at the beginning with all the links, but most people don't.

Is there a better/easier way to find specific posts if I don't know the exact name?
