BY THE WAY! I will not be offended if you use the handy new little "like" button in lieu of leaving a comment. Just so you know. I've read some LJers on the LJ announcement post for this feature with the usual "this is terrible and rude and this isn't FB" complaining, but I've long wished LJ had that feature so I could show someone I read their post even if I couldn't think of anything to actually *say*. So poke that heart all you want, on this or any of my posts. :)

I was surprised to read all the negative comments regarding the 'like' button. But I'm not on Facebook, so I don't know what all the fuss is about. To me, it looks like a fun little feature.

I've learned through the years that LJ can't make any change without a rousing chorus of jeers, even if it's a rather innocuous change like adding a little heart for people to click because they want to be supportive but can't think of how!

I realize I miss a lot of stuff on LJ but "like button"?

I just did a search and came up nada. @.@

I'd like you regardless, but really, "liking" Aragorn is just not enough; one must eat, breath, sleep and DREAM Aragorn.

LOL

It's the heart to the far left of the "comment" stuff.

Oh good grief! that must be on the "new" version as I'm still running old and when I see your LJ it's your pretty front page with Aragorn et al. :(

Oh well.

I am quite happy with a like button too - except I can't work out where it is!

Nope - when I look at your post what I see is;

I feel slighted by LJ now!!

It may not have rolled out to all users yet, or maybe there's a glitch. (I can, however, spot it on your LJ and I see someone has also liked your latest post).

At any rate, here's the news about it: http://news.livejournal.com/151114.html

I read the news thing - but I still can't see a like button, even on my own journal although I know someone has left me a like because I had an e-mail telling me!

Where's the like button?

I can't find it!

Maybe a screenshot of it?

Or here's simply the link to the LJ announcement: http://news.livejournal.com/151114.html

I wonder if it's rolling out slowly and some journals on certain servers simply haven't got it yet.

Don't want my heart to be to the left of the comment button... I WANT TO TALK TO MY FRIENDS, and to use MY heart that way.

(and of course, being of the lengthy on-and-on chat sort, a heart is not sufficiently forceful for me. Can one click it a hundred times, and will it show?)

It is not compulsory to click it - talk away, I will!

Exactly. As I mentioned to Loo-Loo, I simply want people to know that I won't be offended if that's how they choose to react to a post, whether an Aragorn photo or any other. To see some of the comments on the LJ announcement, evidently there'll be people who WILL take offense (because isn't there always on the Internet). But I'm not one of those. :)

What curiouswombat said... it's certainly not compulsory! Chat away! I just wanted to be sure that people who enjoy this every day but feel too shy to comment (because this is a public entry, not private, so any LJer can see it and comment if they'd like) can click on the "like" and I won't be offended. I also won't be offended if you DON'T use the like button. It's just another option for offering feedback and I hardly think it will be the death of LJ as some over at the announcement page have screamed. LJ has done far worse with past "improvements", yet here we still are. :)
