User Driven Content

There are several user driven social content websites in use today that allow a blogger or internet user to submit stories or articles which he deems newsworthy but might not be covered by the mainstream media with the proper amount of coverage and panache it deserves. These sites allow anyone with an internet connection to drive up the readership of the piece no matter how newsworthy, or un-newsworthy it is. Digg.com is probably the most popular to date, and one that I use regularly. How about Sphere? Or, a new one that has just come to my attention is based solely upon conservative views and relevance. Brownbacktakeback is brand spanking new and should be a useful tool in the days to come.
