Comments on: Introducing the Newsvine Question of the Day https://mikeindustries.com/blog/archive/2007/01/newsvine-question-of-the-day A running commentary of occasionally interesting things — from Mike Davidson.

is there any way we can get a Newsvine QOTD RSS feed? I usually surf Newsvine daily (one of the ‘less intensive’ things) but I don’t want to crowd my reader too much.

Love the site.

“Not a US citizen? Then YOU LOSE!”

With or without prizes, I find the responses interesting and the size restrictions will make it better because there will be less fluff.

Also i noticed since your comment count has went down here, the results of running a highly successful content filled user website I suppose :)

Emma: Yep, it’s lawyer stuff unfortunately. Sorry about that.

Rick: I wouldn’t say comment count has gone down here. The last several entries have 5, 39, 84, 51, 27, 42, 42, and 26 comments respectively. And that damned MySpace post is up to almost 800 now. It just depends on what you write.

On the QOTD front, is it possible to add the vote numbers after it is over. It would still be anonymous, but at least one can see how their post matches up and perhaps how to word a better response by comparing to the top vote getters :?
