After doing some further reading and thinking about the EveryBlock launch today, I had a thought - why not a localized digg? I initially posted this on Mathew’s EveryBlock thread, but wanted to capture it here too. So - why not nyc.digg.com, boston.digg.com, or sf.digg.com?
There’s not a lot of thought behind the idea, this just popped into my head. So tell me why it won’t work below.

I’ve long thought (although I’m prepared to be proved wrong) that hyperlocal just doesn’t have the critical mass required to get something truly interesting going. This would apply to a local digg as well. It would probably only work for big stories and issues not on small every day things.
