Have I been asleep? What are those? Some of them look downright...official.
 
the rule...

the icon with a " and a + lets you quote multiple posts. so click on that icon for 3 different posts, click on any quick comment icon and youll see that it put [ quote ] things for each of the posts you selected...

the 2 all the way at the right submit a post to delicious and digg... tres web 2.0 ;)

I'm not smart enough or sober enough to use this new stuff :)
 
What are those...like an RSS Newsfeed??

well i dont use http://del.icio.us/ .... but i think its a site with a bunch of "tagged" (aka human categoriezed) links. anyone can add a link to the site and tag it about "this" or "that" or "bass" or "guitar" etc

digg is actually pretty cool... its a news site kinda/sorta. people post stuff they find on the web to digg. so you post a url and a small description... then eventually people on digg.com see what you posted, read your lil description and/or click over to the actual "article" (by the url u provided when you posted it); if they like the story then they can "digg" it (press the digg button) and the "coolest" stuff ends up at the top of the page (but there's a time decay etc). so its a kindof a news site and the stuff on the front page it determined by people voting on the stories as opposed to some editor picking em

All seems pretty lame to me.

All is lame before the entity I grok as "Dude."

But, this is stuff is pretty cool, otherwise. :D

If you let your mouse hover over the icons, it will give you a description. Pretty cool. Multiquote is a cool idea--it'll be nice not having to open new tabs in Firefox so I can cut/paste multiple quotes in one reply.

And, it'll help people like Tony Levin and Dave LaRue answer multiple questions in one post when they are enlisted for a Q&A thread like BP did with John Petrucci last year, too. (hint, hint):cool: It will make for a much easier read through a thread.
