there is nothing differentiating a Yahoo news article from a CNN article from an MSNBC article 15 years ago you could say the same thing about different newspapers instead of sites. The publishing platform you describe is a compelling vision, but it is important to understand the differences from what we have now: e.g. Blogger.com, or the web as a whole as a publishing platform with aggregators like Digg/Reddit/HN trying to single out the high quality articles from that. If writing for your platform is important, it must provide some tangible benefit, like a way to achieve consistent style or quality or dealing with some metadata not available on the web. Of course everything I say may be nonsense as I am trying to understand the problem space myself.
