Having said that, Digg does feel to recyling a lot of content as its userbase grows, new users re-post stuff that's months old by the standards of others. It would be nice if Netscape (or someone else) could combine the social news aspect with some form of editorial control.

It's http://www.tagsum.com and from what the developers tell me it should launch i nthe next week to 10 days. Great timing with the downfall of netscape. I've seen the site personally and think it tops digg and netscape in layout and usage.
