As it stands, exact URLs will send you to the duplicate upon submission. However, I'll look into it, and see if I can correct for .com?blahblah, etc.

I'm leaning towards the idea of a specific discovery page... something like, popular, recommendations, tags that you like, etc., all rolled into one spot. It's just a very rough idea atm, but the popular page could be more useful as it stands, and more personalized.

However, I'm going to do my best to steer clear of algorithms that alter your feed, since algorithms are so easily broken. But, there should be algorithms that suggest content that you might add to your feed. I think a 'suggested articles' section might be good for the discovery page.

You might even go as far as to look for similar sources within a date range. I mean, if the article was submitted six months ago, who cares. If it was submitted yesterday, though, the conversation is still fresh.

Good point. That's very doable.
