Hi!

Two things I was just thinking about today:



* We have a "Long" tag... what about a "ShortSift(tm)" tag for things that are 10 seconds or less? Might be fun if you're just looking for shorties to watch.



* Do we have an Absurd collective? I have some things that don't quallify, for some reason, for "did that just happen," and might be better suited for an Absurd collective. Just a thought.



Yaar!

Howdy.

I was just thinking... I like looking at what people have voted for, and try to find people that are both like, and unlike myself in regards to voting.

Is there any way to collect stats and cull a list of, say, 10 "friends" that have similar tastes so we can go view their posts and vote history? It would be another cool way to be able to mine through the Sift. Just a thought. =)

I'd really like to start a philosophy/literary theory/general theory collective if we don't have an active one. I know we have some good stuff on the sift that I don't want to get lost, and I'd really like to start posting some more "heavy" philosophy.

Anyone have any thoughs?

I've had this question nagging me for a while, so I thought I'd push it over to sift talk to ask all of you what you think. Is it poor form to upvote your own post? When I'm taken to the queue after my new post hits, I always click the upvote out of habit.

Is that poor form?
Is it against the sift rules?
Can I have some candy?

What do YOU think??
