Re: Games: Another reason why Twitter needs filters

What we could really use is a karma-based system, so that people could collaboratively filter others' posts, such as "OMG!!! Like these cupcakes are terrific!!!" which to my mind is just as bad if not worse than Spymaster...

Speaking of annoying distractions, is there any way for site visitors to turn off "Drag to Share" and the Meebo/Share Page toolbar. I don't see the purpose of the former, and don't use the latter. This strange interface also seems to have infected TechCrunch...

Thanks!

You might also want to consider providing MP3 downloads of the videos. It would be very useful to be able to listen to them in the car, etc.

Looking forward to more information about your coaching program. I've worked as an editor, marketing writer, and technical writer, but have had problems making the leap to copywriter...
