“A lot of these community news sites are all about Ron Paul,” he said. “Ron Paul may be a valid candidate. But what that is really demonstrating is that you are seeing 1 or 2 percent of a community shaping where the whole community is going. A small dedicated group of people can manipulate these sites very easily.”

Mr. Malda said that Digg must move to deemphasize that vocal minority in the overall voting. But then it would inevitably alienate its core user base. “All these sites start with a nucleus of dedicated people. Then as the gawkers join in you see a dilution. People who were there originally feel alienated and feel that the thing they helped created is being perverted.”

This is a problem MemeStreams addresses with it's agent. If gawkers were to join the site, the original community would still be interconnected through the agent. Unfortunately, the gawkers aren't joining, and I'm not quite sure how to fix that problem.

I think you just need a Web 2.0 name: iMeme.com recmend.com memstram.com

You know... remove some letters. Thats the key to success.
