FWIW, the folks at Harvard's Library Innovation Lab have an instance of the software behind HackerNews specifically for library stuff. http://news.librarycloud.org/ It's been pretty pretty low traffic, but the infrastructure's there and I'm sure we'd be welcome. Also, lobst.er's looks like it might be my next destination when hn's signal/noise ratio gets unbearable.... Wish someone would fork the hn android app so that it'll work with arbitrary arc-based fora... -Corey On Mon, Dec 3, 2012 at 10:43 AM, Mark A.
