digg like site

[soctal]

has anyone ever tried building a digg like site? have you successfully monetized it? either all purpose or niche?

Never tried to build one for monetization, but you can use pligg as a good base to build it.

Hit me up, if you are interested to build one using pligg.

You can use pligg and phg dugg, to build such type of sites.

thanks for the offer, but i am planning on using the drupal version of digg called drigg. at least i was, i am looking at hotaru that namewithnogaps recommended and now i am serious thinking about using that instead or at least on one site.
but mainly i was asking if digg type sites are successful monetarily, not how to build them.

thanks, i had never even heard of hotaru, but it looks worthwhile trying. i love drupal, and i have seen a couple of drupal/drigg sites that are gorgeous. but it appears not to be all that updated. i am going to try this cms, thanks
have you had success make dough with a site like this?
