Instant Feedback Button

Title:
Instant Feedback Button

Area:
Posts

Summary:
Similar to the Facebook 'like' button, have a 'favorite' button, kudos, etc. Some sort of button, where if a person likes an entry but doesn't want to comment, they can leave some sort of feedback.

Description:
As somewhat of an author, it's frustrating when one doesn't get reviews. I may not get reviews but I do see when people favorite one of my stories on another site. That site keeps track of how many have favorite your work. Since many authors might be coming here, I think having some kind of like/favorite/kudos button would be great. Fanfiction.net and DeviantArt.com have similar options.

I need to figure out a food bribe for programmers. I want to see all these open bugs tackled so bad. Why don't I know programming! /pulls hair out

You know we'll teach you if you want to learn, right? ;)

That is an intensely interesting idea. I have way too much free time as it is. I'm usually only good for making things pretty with graphics, html, and css.

I'll always be up for helping on a small project, and contributing to Dreamwidth as a whole.

dw_dev_training is a good place to start, or dw_volunteers. In particular, putting yourself out in dw_volunteers or dw_dev as available to do frontend work -- design, mockups, making things pretty -- would be immensely appreciated, since it's something a lot of our heavy backend programmers (claim that they) suck at!
