This site is similar to Digg.com?

It's the same idea. But on Digg I miss news related to the black community.

Digg saves me tons of time. I don't have to read all those RSS feeds and websites about tech. My daily technews in one place to digest. I wanted the same for latest local and national news stories affecting the black community, so I put together InfoTainmentUpdate. Now we can all save a lot of time on latest local and national news stories affecting the black community as well!
