Do any of you already use Reddit?
Used to. Gave up about 4 years ago. Having user-driven content and
editorial control is generally a recipe for disaster. There's admittedly
a lot of great articles on there, but there's way more crap and you're
too likely to have tyranny of the majority. For a small community that
won't be too bad, but as it grows (and it likely will), you'll start
seeing problems.
Are the news summary postings on the list useful? Or would you rather
the list stick to project oriented discussion?
I'd recommend a /.-like setup where you have multiple editors, some
recommendations from users on what gets posted, and a good comment
moderation system. Alternately, could you team up with an existing
site like hackaday.com and have your content added there?
