a Facebook 'like' button on GCAtlas
« on: April 27, 2011, 05:14:47 PM »
At times I find myself searching for a 'like' button when I read a good post....maybe Ran might consider one. I enjoy reading the peoples names who have used it.

A simple, easy to use sign of positive affirmation. Might be good at times.

Do we dare include a "don't like" button, too?

For the sake of Pazin, I say no.  That guy likes everything and is liable to hurt himself.

I thought no response was affirmation enough.

Paul, I think this a cool idea, and I feel the same way: A "Like" button would be nice on golfclubatlas.com.

I vote no.  All we would end up with is a post and bunch of "likes" instead of meaningful discourse. Plus some of the longhand "likes" responses are downright entertaining.

Even without a like button we don't get enough meaningful discourse.

I'd much rather have an Iphone app.
