Experimental - vowe.net gets a Like button
by Volker Weber
If you like the Like button, press the Like button. If you don't, don't. Yes, I am aware there is no dislike button.
Update 3 days later: No, I did not like it. Gone for now. Maybe later ...

Seems to work well. It's here to stay for now.
Does it not better belong into the "email :: tweet :: bookmark :: digg :: buzz" line?
Yes, it would. But it's not offered as a link. And I cannot fit the iframe properly into that line.
Thanks for moving it up nevertheless!
It's there on the front page as well. Haven't yet figured out where it ends up. But so far it's working well.
it might work fine, but the button design destroys with its own colour & graphics the clean page design, what I liked much more than this tiny features
and for me it looks like a kind of PRODUCT PLACEMENT (I know it's not, but it looks like),
because all the other players lost their CI in this line email :: tweet :: bookmark :: digg :: buzz
Yes, that is why I call it experimental. If it will be used, then it is here to stay. If not, then not.
Experimental sounds a bit more than just a user acceptance!
By the way I'm missing a "dislike" button cause what does 52 x like it mean if 48 would like to say "don't like it?
Do you expect that the dislikers will make a/more comments?
But how to compare a comment 2 just a single click?
This page had such a beautiful and strong design with just one single 1 colour beyond b/w and no graphics beyond the rss feed/preview buttons.
Let's wait and see how the experimental journey will continue in the sense of "Das Bessere ist des Guten Feind!"
Womit hier einmal das bisher schlank informative Design gelobt sein soll, was sich über all die Jahre entwickelt haben mag. Auch wenn es abgedroschen klingt: reduced to the max
Good it's gone. I couldn't press it anyway, and I agree with Wolfgang: your neat design suffered from it.
