Come Vote Surf!

by Tim on January 30, 2008

Ok so Jens suggested a "hot or not" style voting for splash pages, and I integrated one into the StartXchange surfbar. So now while the timer is counting you can rate the pages from 1-5. You'll even get extra activity points as you surf each time you rate! I've been surfing and I'm hooked! I haven't been surfing much lately, and I think this might just be the thing to keep me going =P

I have tested it and it works great. I have even been looking at my own ratings and I might have to do something with my splash page :)

great idea jens.

Studying voting behavior, can be very helpful to find out what splash would works or not.
Members can also benefit from this knowledge in others TE’s.
