    I think it’s like Newsvine, but with less features and an uglier UI.

    Hmm… something ugly on Myspace, what are the odds?

    Eww. They’re framing in the content from other sites. Wonderful way to break the aesthetic design of the linked sites.

    And did I just miss a comment feature? Without that it seems to be nothing more that a poor implementation of Digg/Reddit.

    However, given the level of MySpace traffic, if they can incorporate the use/voting of the news site in to regular myspace profile pages they’ll have a winner even if only a small percentage of members use it.

    I love making a loser into a winner just through sheer volume! Great strategy.

    I won’t be giving up Google or MSNBC anytime soon.
