This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

why does that incompetent bernanke still have a job. also paulson the parrot should be fired. both are presiding over the worst slow down (recession) since the great depression. a question to capitol hill, shouldn't american citizins have a say in who is in these jobs, since we are the ones who get it in the neck.

Times a wasting, MY FELLOW AMERICANS(As Tricky Dick used to say). Time to pick a side and STOP talking and writing and start DOING. WE THE PEOPLE made a BIG,BIG difference during the Viet Nam War and bringing the war to an end.(AND I am a vet of that war) WE THE PEOPLE can bring an end to this mess ONLY, AND ONLY if WE STAND TOGETHER AS ONE NATION. SO, as I said pick a side and GET GOING. I have chosen mine, and regardless of outcome. WILL SEE IT THROUGH TO THE END.
