Forward To Friend Voyeur

Every article has a link to a recommend-it script that allows people to forward an article to a friend. About 27-55 of these are sent daily by a wide variety of people.

We filter out 72 known swear words in various languages (even though I’m sure we don’t get them all) and keep an eye on the flow to be sure our system is not being abused. Every use is logged and tracked.

Here are the most common “comments said” when people use our “Forward An Article To A Friend Feature” and leave a nice memo with their forward:

1) Love you, Mom
2) Print this for me please.
3) Rate my article.
4) Here’s the article that talks about what we just talked about.
5) Here’s an article for your next newsletter or ezine.

Honorable mention for this type of comment:

Big apology comments from guys who are sorry for irritating their girlfriends or for being a big baboon and are begging for forvigeness. ;-)

About 5% of the comments are in a non-English language.
