What's this?
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.

Can this epic format battle just be over?

How much Pull does Blockbuster still carry?
I thought they were in trouble themselves.

Yet another reason Blockbuster is becoming increasingly irrelevant.
For years, they got away with offering a limited selection of carefully chosen movies -and people ate it up because they had little choice. Then they imposed draconian late fees, and people ate it up because they had no choice.
But then came Netflix, movies mailed to you, and from a vastly larger library. And no late fees.
Now that Blockbuster finds people have a choice and rentals are down, you'd think they'd have learned and might reconsider their "our way or the highway" plan. But nope. It's blu ray or nothing.
Feh.
Listen up Blockbuster: my choice is to rent nothing from you. I don't like the way you do business. I don't like companies that try to think for the customer. Thankfully we have lots of options for our entertainment dollar so you won't be missed by anyone.
