Huffington Post Debuts HuffIt Memedigger

Posted on January 28, 2007

The Huffington Post has added a memedigger feature to its website called HuffIt. The Digg-like social media tool lets users decide which stories wind up on the front of the Huffpo.

HuffIt lets you decide which news stories should get the most attention. You can submit and select news from anywhere in the world and the most popular stories will appear on the front of the Huffington Post.

The Blogging Times reports that Huffington Post community manager Wendy Cohen sent out an email to subscribers that said, "The most huffed news stories will appear on the front of the Huffington Post in the very near future, but first we want to give a little time for new users to get a feel for the site. This is your chance to become part of the editorial process."
