Is Slashdot Developing a Digg Clone?
Written February 11th, 2007 by Paul in Tech
Just hitting the Digg.com front page is a story about a new Slashdot feature called Firehose, and it appears to have a voting system similar to Digg.
That interface looks really juicy, and no, I don’t think it’s a Digg clone. It may have similar features but knowing the Slashdot developers, they’re not the type of geeks to do ripoffs.
Can’t wait til they open it up to the public.

This has actually been around for about 6 months, at least for subscribers to Slashdot (which costs $10). It’s getting better, but still has a long way to go before people will use it much. Just my $.02.
