Yay! This is awesome!

Reddit ‘white labels’ its software to Slate
Community news site Reddit is integrating its software into Slate.com, the venerable Webzine currently owned by Washington Post. The goal is to give Slate readers “a new way to find and discuss its best content.” Slate.reddit recently went live, “as the first step in bringing the reddit format to Slate readers (integration with the Slate website is on the way).”

Slate.reddit is populated automatically via Slate.com’s RSS feeds - so there are no manual submissions, as on the original reddit.com. All that Slate readers need to do is vote and comment.

[Update: Well, not so awesome. Just kind-of neat… Not all that useful though. Especially since the Slate homepage is so well designed, and packs more info in, and in a logical, easy-to-navigate fashion]
