Please not another like button. I long for a time when there wasn't 6 or 7 like buttons for different websites on every blog article screaming "Pick me! Pick me!" and causing visual clutter. At a former company I worked at our CTO likened our product which had many warts to a machine with many levers. He then went on to compare our customers to monkeys that we had trained to pull the levers in the right order. Pull them in the wrong order and you get an electric shock or something. Every time I see a cluster of like buttons on a web page I think of monkeys and levers. This functionality could totally be implemented on the server end. When you submit a link it could tell you that the story was already submitted and when. Wishing the like buttons would just go out of fashion...
