How to encourage rather than compensate
I've given the idea of "Votes" and "Points" on Evoke some more thought, just because I like the concept of games and using recognition as a reward. I would like to propose a solution to what everyone has been talking about with regards to finding "hidden treasures" and new users. I think there should be a leaderboard based on how many comments and votes people make. If such a leaderboard existed, the people with the most comments and votes given would be the people exposed to the most materials, and therefore might be good people to "follow". If these people have a "favorites" blog or something similar, users would also know these were potentially more valuable than say someone who only reads about 1 subject.
Anyways, just a thought on how we can encourage people to read and comment on OTHER people's blogs rather than just trying to get other people to read and comment on their own.
In case you missed it, another way to help you keep up with other people's blogs is by subscribing to their RSS feeds

Boy, that's a fine idea! Even if there is not score system, I appreciate the reminder that on other blogs dwell wisdom and fun.

Part of this is in the new leader cloud -- there's a section that lists the top power-vote-casting agents. I think the part about commenting is also very important, but it's not just the number of comments -- the quality matters, too. Posts that say "me, too!" or "come see my blog" are obviously of less value than comments that actually reflect, reinterpret, or add to the discussion. +1 vision for your ideas.

The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More
Stinging Nettle
In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle.

In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out.

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More
public servants
The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
