Copy an existing market leader, then as you're developing your software, create new features that distinguish you from the competition.

Why is this downvoted?

If you copy something that works and then add features or put a spin on it you can end up with something new and cool. Its a good way to start thinking about ideas imo.

Isn't Digg just google news or nytimes with new innovative features?
