<some questions about article rating>
i can't really address the questions you asked, but i just
wanted to say that i use emacs or slrn to broswe, and they
both have great scoring systems, which i use on the groups
here.
i think something like a rating system for the whole site,
while a nice idea, just won't work. everyone has a unique
opinion on what should be what, or just don't care, and it
would be difficult to get useful results such a system.
if an article was given a rating depending on the viewer's
preference, it might be more useful.
right now, i dont see what the rating system accomplishes.
other people enjoyed reading the article, or didn't? what
does that mean? why didn't they enjoy it? is it going to
be for the same reason i wouldn't enjoy it? if that isn't
the reason, i'm probably going to want to have read it, so
the scoring system didn't do anything good for me.
