Affinity Spaces: a growing list

We should create a list of the “Affinity Spaces” that we utilize.

I use DIGG, as well as The Hype Machine .

Digg is a fully democratized news site. Anyone can submit an article, picture, video or mp3. People browsing the site can “digg” a specific page and increase its popularity rating. Each page functions as a message board for a particular submission. Comments on each message board can also be dugg.

The hype-machine utilizes a web-crawling robot that trawls the Internet for the most popular music blogs. Every few hours, hypem adds music to its homepage based on these blogs’ most downloaded mp3s. All the music is streamed from hypem but the site provides links to all the blogs hosting the mp3 files. A huge amount of music on hypem is remixed by independent artists.
