A Little Experiment

I’m not sure how many of your are familiar with MetaFilter but it’s a popular site that lets anybody post to it. It’s not really a blog but it has blog-like characteristics. I’ve always liked the idea because it’s self-running. The users keep the abusers in check.

Anyway, here’s my little experiment; I’ve set up a MetaFilter clone I’m calling PokerFilter. The hope is that bloggers can post:

a) Stuff they might not post on their own blog like links to a 2+2 thread or another poker blogger’s post.

b) Links to thier own blog postings that they think are worthy of increased exposure.

I’ll play the role of moderator for the off-topic posts and spammers but for the most part anybody is free to post whatever they want. Pimp your blog posts. Post stuff of interest to the poker blogger community. Whatever. I’ve posted a few sample one’s to get things started but hopefully they’ll be more poker blogger posts than posts from me.

Have fun!

Bill
