Instead of the normal "visual" voting, this adds more effect by using the combined evaluation of your internet peers into a single audio file, which you listen to in order to get the gist of what they think.
It works like this, when you want to register your approval, hover over the clapping button
and hit the button at the frequency with which you would like to clap. If you want to register your disapproval, hover over the boo button and hold down your mouse button for the duration of the boo.
When you want to hear what people think of your comment or idea, you hit play to hear the combined votes of your peers which was previously analyzed by a program and combined into realistic sounding mix of the result.
This may result in a polite smattering of applause, a raucous mountain of arena-like clapping, a chorus of lengthy boos, or a mix of both.
Options: A slide bar volume control for clapping/booing intensity and added buttons for more experienced users of the site, (the whistle and "you suck" buttons)

An auditory version of the normalized bun score? Can it be customized for the HB by generating the sound of dozens of buns (or, in my case, fish carcasses) thumping on computer monitors? [+] |
