I'm sure you're asking yourself, why, oh, why would you take time out of your day to watch a GM or admin and read all their tl;dr ("too long; didn't read" for the interspeak impaired) journals and announcements. Why would you take all that time out of your day? You'll never know even half the things that are going on in DA without it!
Some of our gallery moderators go above and beyond their jobs and start their own little projects on their own. Without watching ^
ctJemm, for example, I would never have known about Critique Week (

) or Manga Workshop (

), both which are aimed at helping artists improve themselves.
Without watching ^
ArtisticAunJuli, I would never had had the opportunity to talk to the lovely =
yumedust and ask her the questions I've always wanted to know about how she does her artwork. AunJuli has also hosted chats with artists like *
makani, *
keiiii, `
alexds1, and =
keelerleah.
Watching admins like $
Moonbeam13 is also an excellent idea. You can learn all sorts of things like new senior member promotions and more recently, her asking for applications for new gallery moderators.
Getting to know your Gallery Moderators allows you to not only to enrich your community experience, but it can also get you new opportunities. I have now had the pleasure to volunteer to critique in critique week and it's really great to see how much help a simple critique can give

Of course, I'm not asking for you to watch ALL of your gallery moderators, but merely watch the ones in the galleries you're interested in. An admin or two also helps make your DA experience a rewarding one as well!
Who are our gallery moderators and devteam? You could always look at
FAQ #18: Who selects the Daily Deviation and how is it chosen?, but I'll give you a list for the clickphobic
