Nice post. I was actually going to Sphinn this after reading it but I missed that boat by a long shot.

Doug Heil, you should just start using Negative Nancy instead of your real name online. Self-promotion exists everywhere. It's hard to imagine a world where people don't believe in themselves and their own agenda. The difference between Sphinn and a lot of forums are the features that the Pligg software provides to establish a community--like voting (instead of all new topics being listed front and center) and accountability for actions (who sphunn this? and coming soon who desphunn this?)
