That's a very interesting paper (and very accessible to anyone with a stats/data mining background). I went back and read Jason Baldridge's intro, which is excellent http://ata-s12.utcompling.com/schedule/ATA-Authorship%20Attr... It seem

True, there's a few vaguely similar things, like planet.haskell.org, the subreddits, ruby.alltop.com. You used to be able to pull off delicious tagged URLs for e.g. ruby, that had only a few people tag those and assume they were new/obscure
