Well that is really only one small component of the site. As the article said, the is really about jobs in general. Its run by the same great people that run simply hired search engine. There is the blog forum and job searches as well. I don't think the point of the site is to really be this HUGE thing. Just a nice little side oasis for Simply Hired people.

Thats funny. I wrote a similar story about creating a digg-like site from scratch and no one gave a s**t. Now this story that uses pre-made code makes it to the front page? How absolutely gay.To piss you guys off even more, ill include a link to the site I made from scratch. (-999diggs)<a class="user" href="http://www.celebritypwn.com">http://www.celebritypwn.com</a>

Given that Pligg is licensed under the Affero GPL, shouldn't there be a link to download the Pligg source code modifications from SimplyFired?

seriously, even digg was made with only a couple thousand hundred dollars. Since when does it have be all from scratch? What sane developer would do that in this day and age.

a good example of a site like this is: <a class="user" href="http://www.theintechpodcast.com/exposesite.">http://www.theintechpodcast.com/exposesite.</a> It allows users to vote on "undiscovered" sites

codemonkey. . give me a break. Judging from your impossibly high "popular ratio" on this site. . . your friends digg your stories so they get frontpaged (just like this one). THATS why I'm annoyed. As far as the site, Im sure they did a fine job with the code. Good content means nothing. Good content + digg friends means something.

My beef with digg is not enough categories. I often have to mis-categorize my posts because Digg has such lame category options. So that begs the question, am I right for miscategorizing, or is Digg wrong for having narrow categories?

Are you a web developer? try to visit <a class="user" href="http://mvcforge.com">http://mvcforge.com</a> . It's just another Digg clone but the site is for web developers that build web apps using MVC web frameworks like CodeIgniter, CakePHP, Django, Ruby on Rails etc. etc.
