Poll: Best Of

3 pointsjgrahamc5 comments

Craigslist has a section called 'best of' where people highlight the best posts made to CL. It seems to me that the same thing could be done here with comments. Some of the comments are great and full of technical information. How about we add 'best of' voting to comments?

I thought this wouldn't be very useful, but when I visited that sample, I looked through the list and was convinced - those are some good articles, it'd be great to have them all collected like that.

One other suggestion (and I don't know if this has been brought up before as I'm quite new here) is a search feature. Often, a few days after I see a post on here, it comes up in conversation and someone wants me to send them the link. But after a few days, finding some posts on here is a lost cause, and Google just has too much data for some searches.

There is /best but I like the idea for the best comments, not just submissions.
