Abstract
In one embodiment, a system for measuring subjective user reaction concerning a particular document includes a first icon incorporated into a particular document. The first icon becomes viewable at least partially on or near the document independent of input from a user subsequent to the user accessing the particular document and solicits a subjective user reaction to the particular document from the user. The first icon receives user input indicating a desire to provide a subjective user reaction to the particular document, and the user input causes a second icon to become viewable at least partially on or near the particular document. The second icon provides the user an opportunity to provide a subjective user reaction to the particular document. The system also includes software associated with the second icon that receives the subjective user reaction to the particular document and directs the subjective user reaction to a predetermined destination for reporting to an owner of the document.
