Steam introduces: Badges!

Badges

If you hit up your Steam profile page right now, you’ll discover all-new Badges. That’s right, using Steam now has its own Achievements. There aren’t that many right now, mostly just community stuff like commenting on someone’s profile, posting a screenshot, and (ug) linking your profile up to Facebook.

Community

Who knows what might come of this, other than bragging rights.

    I like how Valve tries to keep the community involved and bring something different into the service.

      Well, let’s not kid ourselves too much: it’s nice, but it’s also just social engineering to increase retention, trick people into doing things that benefit them (like activating Steam Guard), and increase perceived value (the more time you invest in something, the more worth you think it has).
