Even though I ought to have updated my resume/CV and applied for a new job, this evening I quickly hacked together a ratings system for any news article posted on ANN. You can vote, and therefore voice your opinion, on every article; the possible votes being the numbers 1 to 5, 1 being the worst and 5 the best. In the future, this system might be expanded to reduce the size of unimportant and off-topic postings, or perhaps even to hide them altogether, and to emphasize on the more important and relevants news items.

Any comments, ideas or suggestions?

First poster has a point - the system is so open to abuse it's not funny.
What's needed is a moderator system like slashdot uses, but then I doubt
the traffic is high enough to warrant such a complex system.
Something else is needed, I think.
