Very interesting! I'm noticing that I'm starting to trend in the opposite direction.
Yes, the main stream aggregation have too much noise to signal, and niche sites like HN, or certain subreddits, have very high signal to noise and have invaluable comments.
I'm noticing that I enjoy certain blogs reliably, though, and I have a greasemonkey script on the backburner to highlight posts on HN that come from a list of favorite domains. (Same for commenters whose opinions I often find valuable.) It would be cool if I could add weight to specific domains (in the context of the algorithm that decides what's on my HN frontpage).
