P2PVine is a Digg-like setup for the P2P crowd. The very fact that many P2P users are probably also Digg followers hasn’t deterred the Vine. In fact, that’s the starting point. P2PVine is building its own content built around P2P and only P2P. This means users will get their news delivered in a straight forward and to the point manner. The sole focus of this niche site gives users leeway to find what they want without having to wade through other news/topics. It’s extremely streamlined—you’ve got four main categories to choose from: News, Opinion, Tutorials and Video. There’s also an All section. Of course, users can vote up or bury a story. They can input their own comments. Also, like Digg, the highest rated contributors are given points. Other features include a tag cloud, RSS feeds, and search.
“P2PViNE, is a social web application that allows members to submit an article that will be reviewed by all and will be promoted, based on popularity, to the main page Published Section of the website. When a user first submits a news article it will be placed in the “unpublished” area of P2PViNE until it gains sufficient votes to be promoted to the main page.”
The P2P multitudes will like this site for its sleek, streamlined design. It puts all the news they want to read into one convenient site. None of that sifting through headlines and categories as with other sites. This is strictly P2P.
Digg clones are in the unfortunate position of having to compete with Digg. This site is trying to build its own audience which will be difficult. It has to get Digg’s market—will it be able to? Will users be attracted to this P2P only site?
