That said, I stick to a comment I made on Mashable a day or two after ReadBurner launched - the concept itself is fatally flawed.<br><br>Louis, I think that the gap you're talking about was left unfilled by Google intentionally - by now they must know there's little value in using shared items alone as a rating mechanism.<br><br>This becomes more evident as services such as ReadBurner and RSSmeme gain in popularity and add more and more linkblogs. The result is mediocre mixture of stale Techmeme headlines, irrelevant and silly Digg-style posts, random one-size-fit-all del.icio.us-like content, and of course, duplicate and redundant content.avivWed, 13 Feb 2008 17:45:30 -0000
