Next question: Is any website doing waht you propose to be done (and we all find reasonable)?</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nelson Medina</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 26 Aug 2006 09:01:15 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The *Real* Reason Digg and Reddit Are In Trouble</title><link>http://dmiessler.com/blog/the-real-reason-digg-and-reddit-are-in-trouble#comment-4351103</link><description>Indeed, the post was pretty much buried on Digg and Reddit.

But unfortunately the vast majority of people are idiots, so don't expect anyhting to change.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Nils</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 25 Aug 2006 01:47:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The *Real* Reason Digg and Reddit Are In Trouble</title><link>http://dmiessler.com/blog/the-real-reason-digg-and-reddit-are-in-trouble#comment-4351099</link><description>This all makes complete sense.  I am new to digg/reddit and I would have thought original content would be the only thing people want to see.  Why bother with a yahoo re-post of a news story I read anyway?  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;P.S.  As a new viewer of digg/reddit but a longtime blogger, I think reddit is better.  People have posted my stuff on here and it gets seen ... on digg it is seen for 5 minutes and then gets washed away by new posts or those guys who have the super-powered ability to get noticed.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Cash</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 25 Aug 2006 01:19:44 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The *Real* Reason Digg and Reddit Are In Trouble</title><link>http://dmiessler.com/blog/the-real-reason-digg-and-reddit-are-in-trouble#comment-4351101</link><description>You make an excelent point.  I always though that posting links of your own content was wrong, but now you have completely changed my mind.  It is definatly a practice that should not be abused, but the beauty of these services is that if you are posting shit it will be burried anyway.  By your definision of "blogspamming" (which I 100% agree with) these ppl are just comiting plagiarism and if cought should be banned from the community.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Yellowbeard</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 24 Aug 2006 13:55:39 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The *Real* Reason Digg and Reddit Are In Trouble</title><link>http://dmiessler.com/blog/the-real-reason-digg-and-reddit-are-in-trouble#comment-4351100</link><description>Spot on</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Haydn</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 24 Aug 2006 12:28:17 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
