Who's leading the conversation?

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

I say, if we're going to be late, boycott the last bond film "die another day" and give the new guy a chance.

Does anyone really enjoy the Bond movies anymore, the last one I saw was "The World is Not Enough". It contained both Malcom McDowell, never a good sign, and a stealth boat... I repeat, a f**king stealth boat.

I appreciate the tech toys and the foxy female characters with innuendo names, but come on, this franchise ran out of steam in the late Roger Moore era, Bond doesn't need a rebirth, he needs to be interred. Let bond die.

I repeat a stealth f**king boat, the dim-witted writer who came up with that should be beaten with a stealth stick.

Don't comment yet. Craig looks good and this bond is going to be from the beginning so he needs to be young since this is the first novel. Give it a chance I think it is going to rock the story has been altered abit to relate to now. Bond is back in November and I will be seeing it opening night.

In my opinion, Bond has reached a low in entertainment value, so the only place Danial Craig has to go is up. Besides, this is the first bond story in the series, hopefully it'll go back to it's roots and get some class back.

Also, what's up with boycotting? Now they'll never know if he did well or not.
