Cool New Blog Toy
MyfriendisKate just pointed me towards this cool new little blog widget – post reach‘s ClickComments.
It adds a set of icons that let you vote/comment on your opinion of a post. You can add just the positive icons –
(cool)
(fun)
(insightful)
(great find); but I decided to include the negative ones too…
(fell asleep)
(I’m confused) and of course
(I disagree) – which between you and me looks more like (this post is crap!)
post reach says:
ClickComments makes it easier for your readers to express
their thoughts and appreciation with just one click.
ClickComments keeps your readers on your blog longer
by suggesting your other blog posts that will interest them
So I’ve decided to add it and see if either of those statements are actually true. Besides, I like cool new toys and blog widgets are the easiest, cheapest toys to play with these days.
Let’s see if anyone clicks the icons, and see if it will help you “find other blog posts that will interest” you.
What do you think of this post.
Be sure to let me know what you decide – I’m too lazy to figure this stuff out for myself!
Jay – well, since I’m not seeing too many people “voting” so far, chances are 1. everyone is reading via RSS; no one is reading in the first place; or the voting thing isn’t all that much fun to play with.
I kind of liked the fact if you voted it offered other choices to check out… but I haven’t played with it on anyone else’s blog yet, so it’s hard to tell if I’d care.
I like voting things. this is a very involved blog I like it im trying to make one for my site, but its not going so well, let me know if u guys have any tips

I would vote, but I don’t see the icons!!! I think they’re a cute idea, but I don’t blog much. I spend too much time on FunAdvice 🙂
@john & @Dara – well, thanks. Are you guys spamming, cuz it looks like you guys are spamming.
Okay, turning this off… since it seems to be annoying to load, not consistent in when it appears and… well… very few people seem to be using it.
