I like this. It's a chance to be creative in an easy, shared way.

An observation: Many of the posts are very poor, but some are wonderful. It would be nice if there was a way so the good ones would get more prominence. They seem to be drowning in the lame ones.

[tdavis → bkovitz]

Agreed. I only watched it for a minute or two, but I did see a couple that made me think, "Whoa, maybe everyone on the Internet isn't that stupid..." ;)

[Radix → bkovitz]

I agree, as dkokelly showed you can subtract comments, but it would be better if there was an additive way to mod comments up as well as the subtractive.

(I thought the various drop table attempts were amusing.)

[dkokelley]

Interesting. My submission: Where there's a will, there's a way... but not for you.

Other notable posts:

- hacker news will downmod you - anonymous

- will '\ drop table you - anonymous

- lisp is worth learning for the profound enlightenment experience you will have when you - finally get it

Note that the author space is used to complete the sentence.

Note: If you want to help the better posts a bkovitz says, go to http://littlegreatideas.com/willyou/index.php?action=history and mark the junk ones. I'm not positive, but I think it will remove them from the cycle.

Thanks. How did you find that URL?

[dkokelley → bkovitz]

At the bottom of the page, click "past messages".

On a similar note, there's http://theyfightcrime.org/ I use that a lot when I feel like writing something quick and stupid and just need a plot bunny.

Damn you, will wheaton, I can't stop loving you.

I read that as an inbuilt in Python. facepalm

I've watched this for 5 minutes and almost all of it were nonsensical or pointless.

Edit--at minute 6 it's pretty clear 4chan, or some lesser forum, got their hands on it.

[leviathant → alaskamiller]

Indeed. I enabled javascript before attempting a post, and QUICKLY closed the tab because the message that popped up was pretty awful.

Sad. This is a pretty cool idea, but it its already spammed.

It was created in October, 2005.

Couldn't resist thinking about this. Maybe it's just me and HTML forms.

1=1 will pwn you

I like it. A lot of buzz is going on with being able to share answers to common questions. (twitter: what are you doing? facebook: who are you? Loopt: Where are you?) This also goes along with stuff like the epic fail blog, or fml blog.

Maybe this could be used to stream epic fail blog as a screen saver?

Anyways, cool post
