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.

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.

So in other words, basically turn this into LessWrong, which I believe Robin has rejected in the past...

Pshah, upvoting is cheap.

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?

Now THAT would be feedback!

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.

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 :)
