Is HN Ignoring The Long Tail?
Kilimanjaro: My view:- Voting for STORIES is retarded. It can be EASILY gamed.- There should be editors who pick news RELATED to the main purpose of the site.- Let the people SUBMIT stories but let the editors PICK the most relevant.- On the other hand, voting in COMMENTS is ok.A good idea would be to have say ten editors and let them vote on stories submitted by users. Stories with 5 votes or more go to the front page.Can it be gamed? Sure!When that happens it's time to change editors.
