It's another way of "liking" the comment or voting it up. The user is essentially saying "I agree with this". People sometimes flag such comments because: 1) The upvote mechanism was created for 'this' purpose. 2) These types of comments do

Semantics aside, this is the reason FB will own the search/discovery space in the future. That's not just a troll comment, that's fact. FB is amassing a huge database of well organized & socially relevant online documents that other com

In regards to the "random people" scenario, I have found that people who harbour such feelings will almost never make them public in a public forum even if they feel comfortable telling close friends or acquaintances. I have found that this

Fair point and I am certainly aware of that. I was actually hoping that would come across in my post. My main concern is that it's becoming increasingly more acceptable to be publicly hateful in a non-anonymous fashion. This is somewhat unp

What's also intriguing about aw3c2's message is how his/her question clearly demonstrates how our brains have trained themselves to ignore banner ads. I read TC every day and it took me a little bit before I realized that the huge banner

Given the US Gov (and I'm fairly certain most other govs as well) has wiretapping laws in place ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communications_Assistance_for_L... ), I don't see why anyone would be surprised that the hardware providers also
