If someone writes something that's not to the Atlantic's standards then a rewrite/modification will be requested.

That happens on Svbtle, too. (Not enough yet, admittedly, but it'll be happening a lot more often in the future.)

Are you hiring editors? It feels like they might be inexpensive in this market.

Interesting... how does that currently work? Is it informal or is there a review mechanism in place?

Why? Do you anticipate a lowering of standards after the thrill has worn off?

A lot of the current svbtle blogs are incredibly vapid.

The current, most popular post on the svbtle network is Dave McClure, a super angel with his own Wikipedia page, hoping that he's a "late bloomer", not a "loser."

dcurtis' latest post:

I’ve been hearing rumblings which suggest that Flipboard is about to be blocked from Twitter’s API, following Instagram’s blockage last week. What is Twitter thinking?

Literally, that's the entire post.

I really like the actual frontend of svbtle blogs, and the 'ideas v. published' blogging interface seems smart, but the notion that this is some curated uber-network is absurd.
