	<description><![CDATA[After visiting Reddit today, it was pretty obvious my favorite SubReddit circlejerk was up to no good. After toying around all week with a funny upvote arrow which looked similar to male genitalia, we've not seen an invasion of 4chan into Reddit. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[In a recent blog post entitled simply "Update from Jay", it has been officially announced that Jay Adelson will be stepping down as Digg's CEO after 5 prosperous and amazing years.

But how well has Digg's new service been running, and is it making the company money? ]]></description>
