The main feedback I get on posts is comments. Sometimes I’m puzzled that a favorite post of mine gets very few comments, and I’m not sure if that is because others didn’t like it or just didn’t have anything to say about it. So now, you can vote on posts, to signal your interest without needing to say something in particular about a post. Let the feedback begin.
Sorry, I won't be using this. Instead, I'll continue to hit "share" in Google Reader when I like one of your posts so much that I don't see a need to comment on it. Other readers probably hit "like" in Google Reader when a post is so awesome that it needs no comment.
When do we get a prediction market on which posts will be in the top 10 for the week/month/year? Or which posts Tyler will quote from or, perhaps, which ones will generate a NYT article?
Ha ha, thirded. I disagree probably more than I agree, but Robin always has an interesting or unusual perspective put in a succinct way so I keep following the feed.
OB, Now With Votes
No “Dislike” button?
*like*
No "Dislike" button?
This is a good suggestion, unnamed. Encourages quality commenting and lets best comments quasi-join the post.
You've got to choose some post order, aware that the first posts will be read most often. Chronology doesn't seem a useful promotion mechanism.
What I was about to say.
Gladly - if you add the link to your RSS feed as well.

Good move, Robin.
Have you checked the likes through the rss feed at google reader?
say, what are your favorite ob posts robin. we can go directly vote on them, give you some quick feedback
Works for me now. Woo!
So in other words, basically turn this into LessWrong, which I believe Robin has rejected in the past...
Pshah, upvoting is cheap.

Now THAT would be feedback!

All I see is a thumbs up. Where is the 1 worst, 10 best scale?
Some 4 people have already liked this in Google Reader so it's a good thing to do :)
