Social News sites are communities which
allows there users to post the latest news,
news stories, articles, videos and pictures
in a website and sharing the views on
them with the users of that site. These
news sites mainly concentrates on the
latest news updates.

There are a great deal of
social news sites on the
internet, sometimes too
many. Most of them are
dormant and are no longer
active, largely because they
were poorly marketed and
hence, never had an active
community of users in the
first place.
Communities and the active
participation of users is the
most important thing to
popular a social news site.
