That sounds like a really interesting idea, why don't you build it?

A few months ago I had an idea for automatically forcing people to submit story's to sub groups as the sight grows. So it starts as a base line then it's a Funny, then it's Funny, picture then it's Funny, picture, cat etc. And at each level people can automatically weigh how much they like each sub group. Then set the homepage as the average weight people give each sub group. Then redit started adding sub redits and I realized it was an easy idea to copy.

I might just try to build it. I don't have too much experience with web development, but I have some time off for Christmas and that would be a great way to learn. It sounds like you have spent some time thinking about news sites. Do you have any recommendations for language/framework/existing open source code?

Hey, I'm in the same situation as you. Look for my email in my profile if you want to work together -- or at least bounce around ideas.

I've got 3 weeks of nothing planned until school re-starts, and by then, who knows.
