As of 7:15 a.m., the second installment of Bill Maxwell's "I Had A Dream" series, detailing Maxwell's experiences teaching at a black college, sits atop reddit.com. Is this a big deal? It's a well-earned spot, and the comments are mainly thoughtful and haven't degenerated into individual flame wars. Consider that sites like digg.com and reddit now have to guard against people who try to game the system on these community-news sites. A lot of people are dying to see themselves on the front page to drive traffic and online ad dollars, and the folks at the St. Petersburg Times got the top spot today.
