One technical solution to this used by Maemo news is blog scoring: - New blog entries get added to the top of the planet - Readers can vote +1 or -1 on an individual blog entry - A blog post getting saved in delicious, or linked to from another blog, counts as a plus vote - Over time, blog entries with more negative votes are relegated & fall off the planet, those with more positive votes stay near the top. Positive votes are divided by the age of the post for this, to ensure that even very popular posts eventually fall off. It's a kind of diggy planet, done simply, which ensures that blog posts which readers aren't interested in get relegated quickly. Might be worth integrating this into planet?
