New Feature Teaser: Sink and Retract - The Netscape Blog

Gadgets & Tech – Tomorrow we're adding two new features to the site: The ability to add a Sink vote to stories you do not like and the ability to retract an accidental vote. "You now have the option to not only Vote for stories you like, but add a Sink vote to stories you don't like. This sink vote doesn't affect the actual ranking of the story, but each story will note whether it has mostly positive or mostly negative ratings above the story title, and it will list the number of votes to the number of sinks."
