kudos tell you things you wouldn't get from a comment - like when someone finished reading, or whether they read more than one of your fics.

How does it do that?

I adore the download-fic option. I read a lot of fic on my ereader, and for chaptered fic in particular, not having to copy and paste multiple posts into a word doc first is excellent \o/

This is one of those subjective bits I warned of in the title, but I think people are more willing to leave kudos on multiple fics as they read than stop and comment on each one. I've had people tell me they liked my fic in a general way, but with kudos sometimes I get kudos from the same person on one fic after another so I know they've probably read one of my fics and liked it enough to go try others. That's pretty great. I guess someone could tell you they'd just done that but it wouldn't be the same.

Ahh yes I didn't even get into that but how awesome is it that you can pick your ebook format to download?
