Moving Aggregators on Homepage to the Bottom

I’m moving aggregation feeds on the right sidebar of the homepage to the bottom. Feeds affected are Google News, Yahoo! Buzz, and Digg.

Digg was never the same since the redesign. Although I’ve seen improvement in the quality of articles since they started moderating homepage news, it’s still not what it used to be. The community is pretty dead. The norm for number of comments for each article is around 3. It used to be 100-1000 times that.

Yahoo! Buzz will be shut down soon. I’ve also started noticing spammers making it to the homepage - not good.

Google News is still good, but I thought I move it down just for organization sake.

HuffPost is still find since it’s a mix of curated and original content.
