Excellent notion! I've often thought this very thing.
To add to this, I'd like to so-call "bury" stories which don't
interest me in lieu of stories that do. I could click an Ignore button
and then it will add another different story to the section. This one
thing is similar to Digg's "bury" feature.
Although I must add that I really do not like Digg because of its
other feature of promoting most voted stories. The result is that
headlines end up being trash such as Paris Hilton's favorite color or
something just as UNinteresting or less newsworthy.
