What is Digg?27 Comments
- DisposableRob, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Nice, but that is the most irritatingly illegible captcha.
- Tobey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I guess the digg community just wasn't ready for a giant, bright yellow smiley face.
- magebomb11, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8Please digg this comment if you want this story unburied.
Better than submitting news about it :p
Okay seriously digg my comment :( - davidleeroth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+40 = Neutral
99999999999999 = Happy
-9999999999999 = Sad
You can use those numbers after = in the PHP smily url to make different emotions. - pixel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Neat... maybe they should break it down into different categories ie by gender, age, occupation, income, location etc etc etc.
- serra, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3That's kinda cute, but I have the feeling that we're going to blow the hell out of it. :P
- antipro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Id like to see the idea spread into other areas
- marvy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Diggers: Bring it on!
- Fobmyxeer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I agree. When will a good replacement for those irritating captcha tests come?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yeah. Its probably the worst I've seen so far.
- rickolus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Very clever. Be interesting to see if it catches on.
- fgiDangeresque, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2the trouble is that people are more than willing to vandalise or cause troubles here on our fair intarweb
- dkordik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2that'd be cool, but I doubt people would be as likely to participate if they had to fill out a long form. maybe some dedicated repeat visitors...
- kitchen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2am I just crazy or was this just up on the front page and is not anymore?
-kitchen - fullcollapse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this would be intersting on a high traffic communiuty. or even digg. I doubt people would go to that one site just to vote.
- Saintlink, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Dugg for funny factor.
- luke--, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1funny
- magebomb11, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1BURIED?!!??! BOOOOOOOO!!!
- jer2eydevil88, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Today couldn't have gone better, Happy Face from me :-)
- Otto, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Nice useless captcha... All he has to do is to store IP's for the day and not let an IP vote more than once.
- secondmode, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This will most likly be digg-effected in a few hours. But like antipro said, this concept could be very fun used in another ways.
- ByteGuerilla, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Clearly you've not seen some of the ones on www.mech-wars.net
- sanjay, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1its a nice idea...
but obviously ppl wont actually go there daily and check if there mood matches the world's
mayb a couple of days...mayb a few more
thats it! - magebomb11, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2fan-***** tastic!
- krewemaynard, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Classic! Would make a wonderful Firefox extension, and a great way to fill the void if anything should (God forbid) happen to Abe Vigoda. http://www.abevigoda.com/ffb.php
- addictedtorss, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Obviously they won't...but it would be cool if it were integrated into the sidebar of a site, so you could do it more casually, without having to visit the page.
- MoneyShot, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0That wouldn't prevent automated scripts from "clicking". Restricting votes to a single IP would also prevent multiple people behind the same proxy or NAT device from voting. Captcha's suck, but spammers suck worse.
