Photos on Yardbarker can be uploaded alone, or included with article posts to the site. Then, users can give thumbs up or down and comment on photos (even with other photos), and the photos get the same organization as the articles get on the site. Yardbarker did it already.

But in a separate conversation with Digg CEO Jay Adelson, he talked about Digg’s efforts to turn the corner from a tech-focus to mainstream news." Or more appropriately stated, "gamed news" through shouts, thanks to the Digg update of September 20th which deteriorated the quality of stories reaching Digg's homepage. “This news is interesting to heavy Digg users…for others, not so much.

Btw, I regularly check 'TalkCrunch' in iTunes for new podcasts but hardly get new ones... :-( It would be great to get one per week. I enjoy listening to them when traveling (hotel/plane). Keep it up! :-) Oh yeah, as to Digg: love it. Much broader potential and ongoing innovation than Reddit and the likes.
