Reply To: Over-information
I thought I answered *why* I thought it useful but i’ll make it clearer
Any follower of this forum will notice, either
a) that many posts are not responded to (mostly mine).
b) that many threads have little engagement with few participants (mostly the ones I join in)
Any input from others is useful in judging the pertinence or interest of the various topics. Whether anybody would bother to indicate a preference, I am not so sure. Perhaps when we have a bigger and wider audience, its significance might become more apparent.
When on AlterNet, I am interested in knowing if any contribution I make resonates with others and the identity of who actually up-voted. (It’s not anonymous and they only operate up-votes, to avoid an issue you raised.)
Decided not go with literature but instead a Bluetooth speaker for the mobile phone. Perhaps we should think about featuring wall-posters on our shopping link.
