CreateDebate is a new site devoted to, well, debate of course. It gives everyone their very own soap box. You can express your ideas and views and expect to be contested. It’s like high school debate, only on the web, and your fellow debaters may be a little bit more well versed in their subjects. Or not. Most of the debates on site take the form of either or, for example Shoutwire or Digg, and Hot Model or actress. The topics are very of the times, having to do with internet protocol, file sharing, hot people, Youtube etc. In each debate points are tallied and displayed. You can see the number of total arguments along with, total votes and the ending date—most are open to be debated infinitely. On the side you’ll find a listing of debates categorized by creation time, as well as end status. Tabs at the top of the page display debate topics, e.g. politics, shopping, tech, travel and religion among others. Also of note, each debate has its own research page, meaning users can add sources and news, so others can get up to date. Sign up is free.
