I hope it doesn’t come off as callous or gross to post this GIF now. Maybe it is but I hope that isn’t how it came across. You know how I made it so...

A Reddit Users Meme Ends Up Sparking Possible FBI Investigation

A seemingly harmless meme “Confession Bear”, which was previously used to confess trivial feelings and admit unpopular viewpoints, turns into a full legal investigation as user “Naratto” confessed murder. The FBI has been tipped off and an investigation is “likely”.

Master photobomber Kelsey Whyte gave Reddit a master class this afternoon. Here’s what we learned.

This woman is a genius.

According to numbers from Reddit, the Obama event was the most trafficked in the site’s history, with more than 4 million visits to this point.

The event was also the top-trending topic on Twitter on Wednesday afternoon, topping the GOP convention for a time.

And Obama’s campaign says the event led 25,000 voters to register on their Web site, including one 98-year old.

Would blow my mind. [via reddit]

this is my second time here. I just have to much to do to roam around stuff like this. It seems like a great thing. I just can’t do it. I killed my facebook page years ago because time clicking around is just dead time. Your brain isn’t resting and it isn’t doing. I think people have to get their heads around this thing. All this unmitigated input is hurting folks. My opinion.

Traffic & Reddit

I’m am very, very far from what anyone would call a tech geek but I figured I’d share this bit of info for those of you who may be interested in such matters. And, at the same time, ask for some help. Over the weekend I added, among other buttons, a Reddit button to my Tumblr. It’s just a small sample, but I have noticed an marked increase in traffic.

If anyone can point me towards a Reddit button that includes the “vote up/down” arrows and also isolates a post’s url I’d appreciate it. The buttons I am using now are part of “Share This” and they do not provide the voting option. I can’t seem to find a Reddit button (with voting options) that shows on my main page, and at the same time isolates a post’s url.

Thanks

Any suggestions?
