Attention: What differentiates GlobalLab from other social networks is that in GlobalLab you have limited number of “likes”. It is limited by your current Power.

When a GlobalLab user hands out “likes,” his or her power depletes accordingly. This is to ensure participants feel strongly about projects when they “like” them.

“Liking” someone’s work is not mandatory, but by doing so, you further the development of the GlobalLab community and support talented authors (projects with more “likes” rise to a higher position). Apart from that, the exchange of “likes” is an important part of the of the collegial relationships among the GlobalLab members. To submit a “like,” click on theI like this button located either under the project description or under the idea page.
