Figure out what to do with "moods"

Reported by Martin Atkins | January 10th, 2009 @ 12:21 PM

Lots of services associate moods with actions:

MySpace has a mood associated with each status update
LiveJournal has a mood optionally associated with each weblog entry
GetSatisfaction has a mood associated with each ticket and with each comment.

Since it seems that mood is not specific to a given type, we'll need to decide whether a change in mood is an activity in its own right or whether mood is simply a property of another activity.

Note also that in the MySpace and LiveJournal cases it's given as "current mood", but in the GetSatisfaction case it's "this makes me feel", which is a subtle difference. In the GetSatisfaction case it feels like the mood is more strongly associated with the activity.
