Would they "like" it then? - steven likes the ambulance with a dying patient in it I can see the use for it for liking media, such as videos/photos/music where comments arent always needed.. to show you essentially "like" it to give the creator some form of self-assurance. I think marking the updates such as lifeboat as something like "important", where it is posted to your feed for others to see is a good approach in the meantime. This shows that you have seen the update and believe other should see, almost like a retweet? however this is obviously completely open to abuse.
