coRank

Digg was the first, but after it a lot of clones followed. They have achieved a lot of attention, even traditional news papers now offer a link to four, five or even more digg clones.
I don't use this kind of systems, I find them pretty useless as the contents are selected by the mass, and the selection criteria usually does not match my selection criteria.
They are like television where you must read what others decide.
I'm sure that the on-demand content model is the future of television, and coRank is the future present of content aggregation.
coRank lets you decide what kind of content you want to receive, and from who. It also helps you find people that share your interests.
Rogelio, the mind that has created coRank, says that it has some pieces of Digg, other pieces from del.icio.us, but I think that it is more like a social Bloglines: you select the sources, and you receive not the content they create, but the content they find interesting on the web.
You select the people whose judgment you trust, and the content flows in a network driven by common interest.
Would you like to try it? coRank is now in closed beta, but will be open very soon, so stay tunned.
