Some time back I wrote an article on Syncplicity. First off let me start off by making clear the cheers/boos system that I used as some people have asked about it.
So the cheers/boos system worked like this: A feature that I liked and/or worked as claimed on the Syncplicity site was given a cheer, a feature on which I saw a potential room for improvement was given a boo.
