A nice one, thank you Valve.

Checked this out yesterday and really happy with the change. Being able to click a negative or positive line and see those specific reviews from that time-frame is helpful and entertaining at the same time.

It was a good move, IMHO. Although a few of us know to take reviews with a grain of salt, this will help us determine if a trend is valid. Reading the reviews can help determine what is more likely legit vs a "protest" or designed to punish.

Valve impresses me with their thoughtfulness and careful approach to solving complex issues like this. Well done.
