Haha! Highlights one of the great things about social software, the opportunity to interact (to whatever extent) with people that we otherwise wouldn't.
This may deserve a down vote because it is not valuable content, but in 21 minutes this has 32 votes. Can someone please chime in a tell me why they feel this deserves the front page of HN?
ok, for example: I upvoted here because as much as this does not bring any new knowledge to the table, #1) it is unusual news to begin with, and more important #2) I am dying to hear other HN users commenting on it.
So that's all the secret behind reasons to upvote this.
you apparently clicked it - that's honestly to say all that it takes. there's nothing wrong with wanting to see a picture of mark zuckerberg trying out a random chat service. stop diluting yourself - just admit you wanted to see it and so did almost everybody else here on HN. if you're reading this comment you already showed your interest in it.
It's worthy because within 21 minutes, 32 people, based on their internal criteria, thought it was worth upvoting? Isn't that the whole point of voting?
