understood. im not sure how we could scrape twitter for peoples likes. we don't have that semantic capability.

so are you using as it requires active participation it will be impossible to get traction?

I'm not saying impossible, just hard. If I feel the need to share, I'm probably going to use the channel that gives me the widest exposure, and the most relevant. This is likely to be facebook or twitter.

Edit: if you could identify semantically likes on twitter, that would be a neat little app. Aggregating likes would be valuable I'd have thought.
