A Berlin brothel has come up with a novel way to offset the impact of the global economic crisis and target a new group of customers at the same time - offering a discount to patrons who arrive on bicycles.

What's this?
Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

I think those arriving on roller-blades should haggle....

That's pretty fair, I think. After rubbing and squeezing their marbles on a bycicle, they're half way done when they arrive in sitio.

Anyhow, recently read that there is an entirely new kind of brothel in Germany. A gigantic spa where people spend hours, sauna, pool, massage and also "specials" by female regular members working indepently and - a must - without a pimp. I wonder if that will catch on. And I wonder how the pimp can be shut out in practice.
