User-Driven Social Content Sites

Digg is all about user powered content. Every article on digg is submitted and voted on by the digg community. Share, discover, bookmark, and promote the news that's important to you!

From the site:

"Digg is a user driven social content website. Ok, so what the heck does that mean? Well, everything on digg is submitted by the digg user community (that would be you). After you submit content, other digg users read your submission and digg what they like best. If your story rocks and receives enough diggs, it is promoted to the front page for the millions of digg visitors to see.

What can you do as a digg user? Lots. Every digg user can digg (help promote), bury (help remove spam), and comment on stories... you can even digg and bury comments you like or dislike. Digg also allows you to track your friends' activity throughout the site — want to share a video or news story with a friend? Digg it!"

popurls.com - popular urls to the latest web buzz

From Federated Media Publishing:

"Thomas Marban's popurls.com | popular urls to the latest web buzz, is the dashboard for the hive mind — a single page that replaces the need to directly read Digg, Delicious, Flickr, Wired, Slashdot, NewsVine, Metafilter, Youtube and many other web-buzz related sites. With up-to-the-minute headlines presented in a minimalistic two-flavor design one can scan the latest headlines of what the web collectively thinks is either popular or interesting. A simple mouse over the headline will cleverly reveal a small box of expanded text on the article. Popurls ranks top for terms like "news" on bookmarking services and has a loyal and web-savvy readership."
