The redundant pills

Why have pills when the number of posts display the same information? There is no need to show aggregated data (the pills) when you display the raw data adjacent to it. It is identical to listing the age (e.g., 27) along with the age category (e.g. 25-30). The category adds nothing except clutter.

I compliment you on changing the names of the categories -- they are much more informative.

Re: The redundant pills

I also think the changes that have been made are great....the pills are a big improvement. I do think the pills convey some extra information over and above the # of posts...it's an easily-identified marker. Technically it may be redundant to some extent, but it's a nice frill. Keep up the good work guys!

Re: The redundant pills

I like the pills because they tell us that ValueMD is about medicine. Remember when you have GERD which proton pump inhibitors do you go for? Of course Nexium!
