The top two social news website, Reddit and Digg have their differences. Even though Digg is more popular, Reddit might have the edge right now due to these four cool features (you might not have known were even there).

I find the commenting and voting ads up and down to be interested. I wonder if Reddit actually makes decisions and takes action based on users feedback. There's a lot of awful ads that I'd love to vote down on.

Adam, the person who wrote this, is only 12 years old and yet understands reddit better than almost anyone I have ever spoken to...

@justin - yes supposedly they do take the feedback into account so you should definitely let your opinion be known. It's also a big selling point for the advertisers to get feedback on their ads in basically real time...

Of the big social sites, I get more traffic from reddit than any of the others. There. The cat is out of the bag. Good post as the reddit interface is not so intuitive at first.

"Good post as the reddit interface is not so intuitive at first."

It's not really intuitive at all, even with basic familiarity with the service. If Reddit would adopt a Digg 3.0 type interface, I'm sure it would do a lot better in terms of popularity.
