Do comments count? - Shey, Jamaican of FF

Likebait. - Robert Scoble

I tried both, just in case ;) - Tibor Holoda

total likebait. but it is the way i end up finding people to follow on here. - Jason Goldberg

let me put it differently, i seldom use the "find people to follow" functionality, so the way i discover people is by interacting with them. - Jason Goldberg

Me too. Not everyone but most... - Håkan Dahlström

You were already following me :P - Johnny Worthington

I grow my list organically this way (and comments) too rather than the recommended A-list on signup. - Sally Church

It worked! :) - Tibor Holoda

I only hit like to expose this to everyone else. Jason and SocialMedian rock and I've been on record saying that since April. - Louis Gray

well, and i just found a bunch of new people to follow from this post ... cool! - Jason Goldberg

No ego problem... I am doing technologiy watch here... So no need to follow me... - Boubacar Balde from twhirl

If someone *likes* something I submit, it's a great indication that I might want to follow them. If they leave a sharp comment, even better. - Jason Goldberg

people interaction is part of the core of FF - Olivier

Must not click like... must not click like... damn. - Eric P

+1 Oliver. The interaction on FF is what I love the most. More in depth and on topic interacton than is available on fail whale central. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

unintended consequences: i really WAS NOT looking for people to *like* this particular story. Rather, i was pointing out that liking or commenting on something i post is certainly the best way to get my attention to follow you - Jason Goldberg

I feel the same way. - Chris Luckhardt

Sorry Jason, but the more entertaining interpretation of why you posted this message is the one that will live on. You'll have no more luck getting the facts out than Gore did for the "I invented the Internet" lie. Reality just isn't funny enough. - Bruce Lewis from fftogo

You see Bruce, that's why I need to be able to add a *like* to your comment :) - Jason Goldberg

Alright, I "liked" a bunch of things. =) - Jauder Ho

Excellent linkbait - Charlie Anzman
