Crispyblogspots

Crispyblogposts is a social bookmarking site strictly restricted to blog posts. In simpler words, it's like a Digg just for blogs. By Digg, I don't mean it's a just another Digg clone based off Pligg. It's completely brand new and one-man project by Gabor Imre Farkas. I was introduced to Crispyblogposts by the founder himself. He asked to share my opinion about his new service with you folks, I readily agreed as I loved discovering new service.

Crispyblogposts is somewhat a mix of Digg and Wikis. Users don't need to register inorder to submit their stories or vote on other stories. All blog posts are categorized into different channel, if you can't find a suitable channel, you can create your own (that's why I called it a Wiki). Each Channel gets its own RSS Feed.

Inorder to submit you story, you need to go to an appropriate channel and click "Submit a new blog post". Once the story has been submitted, it goes to a page called Pools. Pools is a section where users of the site rate blog posts, you can add points to the story by clicking "Crispy!" or if you didn't like the story, you can give negative points by clicking "Soggy!". Crispyblogposts also provides a widget for your blog, which displays the points earned by your blog.

Popularity Algorithm of Crispyblogposts: Inorder to calculate the popularity of the story, they have a really simple four level algorithm. If a post has less than 25% of the points that the most popular post has, it's rated "not popular". It it's bigger than that, but smaller than 50%, it's "almost popular", from 50% to 75% it gets rated "popular", anything above that becomes "extremely popular".

Reasons to love Crispyblogposts: Firstly, they have an extremely clean layout, compared to both Digg and Blog-Buzz. Since, registration is not required to submit posts, everybody gets equal share, nobody rules. There is no scope for mafia or control over homepage.
