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 use FB occasionally, but I see this as much more like the <3 on Tumblr. If I <3 something, it means I've read it and I can find it again. If a post has 10k <3s I know it's probably something I should check out, which reminds me more of Digg or Stumble Upon than FB.

So yeah, basically, this is a feature lots of other sites have, and it's way more useful on some of them than it is on Facebook, and I'm in favor of that.
