Great post. It would be interesting to see how well your conclusions hold up with more data. Techmeme is conversation driven and that is a lot different from voting. I wonder how this influences which content is popular on each service.

That's a good point, Julian. The criteria that determine what moves
up on Techmeme are different, and are mostly to do with writing and
linking, whereas Hacker News is strictly direct voting (although you
could argue that writing about a post and linking to it is a kind of
vote as well).

It is an aggregation of (parts of) all of the above I put together last week.

Thanks, Yegg -- that's pretty cool. I like the stripped-down
interface as well. Nice job.
