lol! Like you, we rss hoggers don't sleep either :p I think most posts on here are a result of users aggregating through rss feeds to post whatever's hot on the web.
Bury should work fine (perhaps it should only be accessible by top users to avoid abuse). Another possible solution is to survey the user's past behavior to create a collaborative filter. The filtered news could then be displayed in a "Recommended" tab. As yc.news grows to a certain critical level, this might just become a necessity.

Boy, I don't like that idea. I don't think content control will be a huge problem with YC News. We are all like-minded individuals here. The last thing we need is senseless aristocracy.

Drag and Drop doesn't work in IE. Creat a new favorite with javascript:window.location=%22http://news.ycombinator.com/submitlink?u=%22+encodeURIComponent(document.location)+%22&t=%22+encodeURIComponent(document.title)
To PG: Please, when visiting already-submitted-stories via the bookmarklet, DON'T consider that an upvote. I'm just using it to find the comment thread.
The code for the bookmarklet is refreshingly simple; glad to see that PG can design an interface that is minimal and functional, even in this age of wrapping everything in 12 layers of XML, JSON, SOAP, $ACRONYM.
Thanks for doing this, phil.

No prob, now I just need to find time to use it myself!
Nice, looks like I can relegate my own YC news bookmarklet to the bin since yours works better :)
Coming next: A 'YC this!' button to add to your own blog posts! (kidding, unless there's actual demand?)

i don't know about you but when my local new zealand newspaper has a "reddit-this" button it heralded a large decline in quality. i think a smaller, focused community is more use.
I had another bookmarklet whipped up to do the same but this one works a little better. Thanks. :)

i have had a class c corporation for the past six years what can i do with it to gain wealth?
Seriously, though, there should be some kind of reward for wading through all the noise in the new section. (yah I know I'm as much to blame as the next person. I do try.) And you know, maybe it really is time to be able to "bury" posts- three votes you're out or something.
upd: just did a quick calculation- 4.5 submissions per hour and speeding up rapidly. Could just be that time of day though.
