Vote links

12th February 2004 by Simon

Good to see Kevin Marks is still pursuing and expanding his idea for the creation of a link that would be able to state a like or dislike preference of what they were linking to. Effectively voting on it.

eg

like - <a rel=”vote-for” href=”http://www.georgebush.com/” title=”George Bush is great”>George Bush is great</a>

dislike - <a rel=”vote-against” href=”http://www.georgebush.com/” title=”George Bush is bad”>George Bush is bad</a>

Without this small, but subtle difference, anyone who links to information on the Internet is perceived by a search engine as endorsing that information, thus providing a higher return for it in search results.

    It’s still pink! :-) - but more to the point, those voting tags appear not to render in Firefox. Don’t know if you knew that?
