Can someone throw more light into this idea YC is working on? I am damn curious, given that http://ycombinator.com/ideas.html mentions techcrunch on one side and reddit on the other (News will morph significantly in the more competitive environment of the web. So called "blogs" (because the old media call everything published online a "blog") like PerezHilton and TechCrunch are one sign of the future. News sites like Reddit and Digg are another. But these are just the beginning. ) And essentially, given the fact that HN is far better than any of the two.
