Ratings – part 2

I blogged earlier about the ratings system.
Here is your chance to decide on the look and feel of the site.
Which style do you prefer:
Currently the bars are enabled – I’ll turn on the stars tomorrow to show the difference.
Just leave your comments below.

We added the ability to rate each and every post.
The idea is to let you give some feedback on the quality of the blog article – rather than ‘I agree’ or ‘I disagree’.

Under each post title you will see a ratings bar – with some information on the votes so far. The example above shows that Ken Muirs post on GroupWise security had three votes with an average rating of 3.33.
To vote move your mouse over the rating bar – select the score for the post – and click. Remember the weighting is from 1 through 5 with a higher number representing a better rating.
Once you click the magic of Cool Blogs comes to life and your vote is registered. It’s all shiny new Ajax – so no need to refresh.
We will be using these ratings to show the ‘best of Cool Blogs’ and the ‘Top Ranked Bloggers’ in the near future.
Let me know how you find these ratings.

Last night I watched the highlights of England beating Equador in my hotel room in Tel Aviv. In Hebrew.
It’s not quite the same.
Tracking visits
I saw on Chris Neals blog a cool feature from Clustrmaps – almost real time statistics for visitors and location.
I’m getting the same data from Google Analytics – formerly Urchin – it’s working really well.
I just need to work on a way to get the data exposed to the wider world:
Tel Aviv
I’m in Tel Aviv, Israel for customer visits with Novell Israel.
Don’t be fooled by this picture of the city from my hotel – it really is all concrete from this view. I went for dinner tonight with Vered and Amit from the local team in the older part of the city – known as the White City.
It’s actually the ‘New Town’ and it all dates from the 1930s – it’s all Bauhaus style architecture – unique – and it’s listed by UNESCO.
People often forget that Tel Aviv is right on the Mediterranean – here is the view the other way:
