PROOF for Social PROOF

I was reading through Janelle's posts (she is a girl on the blog who wrote about A Midsummer Night's Dream, too) and it looks like her paper improved a LOT through the social proof from conversations with her friends, posts on facebook, and other people looking at her material and drafts. I have been gaining a "testimony " of the value of social input, and Janelle's experiences validate that. Sweet!
