Default Site like Digg for Personal Development?

Does anyone know if there exists a site like Digg or Reddit (where users submit and rank stories) strictly for personal development articles?

Not that I'm aware of John, but it would be a great idea

That's why I'm asking. I'm thinking of putting together some software to do just that -- to help us all promote our sites and to satisfy a need which I haven't seen filled anywhere else.

Try this, not sure if it's what you had in mind, but it may be.

High Vibe It / Published stories

It's definitely a good idea but sites like digg, reddit, stumbleupon, etc.. all have some sort of category or filter system that allows you to get only stories on a certain topic.

But a more focused website could do well if there's a big enough market.

I think to niche it down it needs to be very, very specific or the premise is niche.

Your Website News for Smart People is general, but a niche

Digg for LoA Information is a niche again but very focused

Thanks for the link, Max. Yes, it looks like what I was thinking about has already been done...
