dmiessler.com — "I wrote recently about learning to differentiate between blogspam and self-submitted content on meritocracy-based sites like Digg and Reddit. My goal was to try and reverse the negative programming we all have towards reading self-submitted material. But this is not spamming." dmiesler.com entry here

digg needs a section for "oldies" so that those of us who have seen it don't read the same *you gotta read this* chain letter 4 times a year

Right, I heard Picasso had an editor...oh wait.If the blog entry needs editing, don't give it your thumbs up. Just because someone is a hobbyist doesn't mean that their opinion is worthless. For instance, did you check with YOUR editor before you posted that comment? I didn't think so, should I digg you down for it? I don't see much difference between a blog's content and a comment on digg, both are equally readable on the internet and more to the point, are meant to be read.
