Though I think people want badges too.

Perhaps we should start a new wiki page: buttons, where we can collect
current mockups of buttons (e.g. Robert's and others'), and
requests/requirements for additional buttons.

Marius, perhaps you could add specific suggestions for buttons to the page.

I'll ask Dan Cederholm, who created the beautiful microformats design and
logo to take a look at this as well.

Thanks,
