masterwit's Journal: A simple wish for Slashdot

I know there are many wishes we can list out there for a website, but this one is regarding the feed and related comment system here at Slashdot. I feel that articles going through the "fire-hose" that receive comments should be able to be filtered higher...that way perhaps more debatable or insightful topics find their way to the top. Perhaps a two-fold weighting and comment hybrid could help with the filtering.
Sidenote: if there is a way to already view recent articles with a "color" threshold ranked with comments, I'd be interested in where I can find the sorting options, because I must have missed it...thanks
