Hey,
Tech guy here. If you’ve been following the site this past week you might’ve noticed a few minor, but important changes. sam wants me to explain them.
1) Karma ratings – at the bottom of every blog is a karma bar, indicated by the phrase Current Karma. This is your chance to tell sam what you think of the blog by assigning it a positive, neutral or negative karma. Like the blog? Hate the blog? Think it’s whatevery? Click one of the links in the karma bar to let sam know. The karmic rating updates in real time and displays to the left of the bar in parentheses.
2) Categories – in order to make it easier to find blogs, we added a category selection. At the bottom of every blog, just below the karma bar is the category. Click that link and to see all the blogs for a given category, sorted by date.
3) Search – the search results now show the category of the blog, as well as the current karma. Give it a whirl.
In the coming week or so, sam wants me to overhaul the reader ratings page so the karmic results are more interesting. Right now its just a long list sorted by karmic rating. That’s kinda beat, I know.
Laters,
Tech guy
