After some tension moments in defcon 2 during the day, the voting
system is finally up, it should be working with both javascript
on(ajax-style thanks to behaviour.js and moo.ajax) and off.
As a curious info, both the voting buttons and the voting links use
the VoteLinks microformat ;)
Each vote is storing the user agent that the visitor was using when he
casted the vote, the time, the track reference, the vote index(how
many votes were there before he approved), and it will also store the
ip number once a little Ning bug is fixed.
My idea with that is to use all this info for stats and ranking, I
want to display nice charts and graphs about how popular is one track
in each country, who is the members that better predict what songs
will be a hit (users that vote early on tracks that became popular and
dont vote on failures), recommendations and lots of other fun stuff.
I am working now on an extended version of the add form and an option
to edit it, what meta data about a song do you think is important and
useful?
