On some sites, when you see a story you like you can vote for it. And this creates a “most popular” ranking. We’ve decided to take community voting a step further.
Now, when you are moved by a story you can Meme-It!
Meme-It lets you vote for stories based on how you reacted to them. Users can choose from six emotional descriptors by clicking on the Meme-It icon, which is a small graphic based on the smiley. The six descriptors are “insightful,” “tragic,” “humorous,” “uplifting,” “enlightening,” and “just weird.”
Then, on our DailyWe section, you can look at the top stories for each emotional category. For example, you can find the most enlightening stories or the most tragic stories of the day. We think putting the news in better context is always a good thing.
In addition, we’ve made two other enhancements to the site:
• We’ve launched video stories, which can be found across our category pages.
• In the email version of DailyMe (HTML only), you’ll find a redesign that includes better navigation and more content. If you aren’t getting daily emails, go to Edit Settings (link in upper right navigation) and click on Set Delivery to arrange for email delivery on the schedule your prefer.
As always, please try our new features and let us know what you think.
