Digg clone - Pligg

There is a lot of fuzz around Digg.com, a News website. Registered users can post news, and they are allowed to vote - the most voted ones makes the first page.

This is Web 2.0, collaborative, the Internet community choses what is relevant, placing the news they want on the first page.

You can create your own Digg clone for your market - using open source Pligg.

Just go to http://www.pligg.com, download it and install, it uses PHP and MySQL, and installation is not difficult.

If you would like to see an example, http://www.marineair.info/pligg/

You can also show a picture with the news description on the first page, this will make your pligg more appealing.
