Could it end up being built on WordPress?
- meritt 11y agoSure. Something to monitor reddit for highly upvoted and interesting content. Once it hits a certain threshold, add the post to WP. Generate the cache entry and you're pretty well set.
- r-w 11y agoWell, I was commenting in particular on the fact that the site is currently a private WordPress server. The plan appears to be a bit more involved than aggregation, comprising interviews with Reddit OPs and curated articles written by Reddit staff themselves (although they’re probably hiring mostly new people to work on that).
- anabis 11y agoThis sounds like まとめサイト, "curation site" for 2ch.net . Take interesting threads from the main site and edit comments to make it more palatable for the wider audience. It generates quite a revenue from affiliate contracts, I hear.
- wodenokoto 11y agoI don't know if it still is, but most of Yahoo's magazine content is run on Wordpress. There is nothing weird about building news sites on Wordpress.
