GCVote is compatible with some applications like GSAK and Cachebox but GCVote's most powerful feature is the complete integration with the geocaching.com website. This works by using FireFox with a plugin called GreaseMonkey.

Here is an example of what it looks like when looking at a waypoint description:

Meaning of the quality rating:

  ? - neutral / not rated yet
  1 - poor
  2 - below average
  3 - average
  4 - better than average
  5 - awesome

There is no detailed guidance on how to rate a geocache, but please rate in a kind of common sense so that any fellow cacher can see where you felt a detour is really rewarding.

It's easy and fast to use, when it's time to enter your 'Found it' log, just a click and your rating is recorded:
