Morale-O-Meter
I really like Erik Benson's take on the link sidebar:
I've created here a very simple mechanism for me to record links that have effected me (positively or negatively), for my own amusement. I've basically got two bookmarklets in my browser (+ and -) that, if clicked, pull the current page's link and title into two text fields that I can modify and submit quickly (almost without thinking).

Ack! Speaking for all Erik-with-a-Ks out there, please spell his name correctly!
Oops. Fixed that.
The funny thing is that I checked this site when it was updated and had the reaction of, "Man, why does that OTHER Eric Benson always get all the attention!" Thanks for the link, Mena--see you at SXSW. :)
VERY interesting. I happen to be working on a blog reputation system in NewsMonster that does something similar. The difference is that these plusses become positive certs and then we syndicate them to other NewsMonster nodes so that we can build a trust network.
Anyway... announcement any day now...
Kevin -- if you need any testers, let me know.
Very impressed ...
