   I think will be good to show who has the better shares/”shares by other” ratio, otherwise I can share thousand of shitty posts and go to the top …

   Edo, this is a purely editorial feature, ala the Featured Tweeters on Twitter.

   There’s more on the way that are along the lines of what you’re talking about

   No worries

   Can you normalize the graphics so that JPhil’s head doesn’t dominate my screen? Mine is a 125 x 125 image, I believe.

   Hey Louis,

   Give her an old refresh, looks like you’re holding on to old CSS.

   So it’s similar to the RSSmeme top tags/sharers except it is static and admin controlled?

   RSSmeme’s top sharers takes the data that is on the page and figures out who shared most of those stories; so instead of being just the people with the most shares it’s the people who shared the most content that became popular.

   Ben,

   We’ve been taking the feedback we’ve been getting and we have been in turn getting a better and better understanding of the kinds of things people want to see at ReadBurner, so that’s how we’re directing our focus and efforts.

   That’s great Drew but what I was wondering was just if it was static and admin controlled. I take it that it is from the post? (”So we’ve plucked out some folks who share awesome stuff.”)

    Louis, what’s wrong with my head?? Rude.

    Drew — great concept, and I’m not just saying that because my head dominates Louis’ screen. Although that is a plus.
