Blogger ratings bad idea

Blogger in their infinite wisdom decided to add rating features to everybody's blog posts today. They didn't actually mention it on their official blog. Rage, surprise and anger was the not surprising result. Great idea guys you're really thinking there making us switch the feature off instead of opt-in. If like me you don't want the ratings check out this description for removing them that helped me.

Update: as mentioned in comments to this post apparently it was supposed to be "opt-in". well at least they disabled the feature. Pretty embarrassing. Full points for admitting it though, I wouldn't want to be reading their feedback e-mails today.
