[SingAlong]

Peace! Peace! All of us...

Let's stop here with a smile.

Anyway... Back to the topic. The news thing...

Just a couple of days back I read about SocialBrowse here. The idea was cool(it did sound to me like a live and interactive version of Hacker News). It would be interesting if Yahoo tries to deliver headlines that way... like a popup on my taskbar whenever a 'friend' of mine likes a news headline. I mentioned friend in quotes because I mean in terms of the 'followers', like in twitter. I can then follow the person if I like the news he/she reads.

I thought it was a pretty civil exchange. All of nickb's points are fair and valid. Just wanted to put in my 2 cents.

I guess 'linkbait' is kind of an inflammatory term, especially on a site with karma points, but it ought not to be.
