I like the concept.

However the question is, why would people go to this site as a destination instead of a niche site itself. Example: If I wanted to learn about internet marketing news - which isn't covered by digg, reddit etc, i'd go to plugim.com which is focused on that. Why would I go to zooov as a destination site? and then would you be able to build an audience enough for each and every niche. That's the problem with building a site that's wide enough ...

good concept though - good luck.

I believe (or hope) that it's not an either this or that situation. I read digg, reddit, and news.yc. Each has a different flavor. My favorite is news.yc because of the narrower focus and the quality of people, but I read reddit when I'm looking for random stories.
