If you want to create your own social web site, where you can share news, reviews and other links so check out Slinkset. Slinkset allows you to build and customize social news sites with a minimal effort and technical know-how. At a first glance, It looks like little more than a Reddit clone with a few extra features.
Slinkset give you the user complete ownership of your site, therefore giving you the ability to build the type of community you want. You can also check out the hosted version of the site created for Startup Meme readers. The difference here is that, unlike Reddit or Digg, Slinkset isn’t looking to become a destination site. Instead, it is allowing users to create their own “Reddits” without any coding. As of now, it is offering free hosting services but has got plans to charge a fixed fee in future.
Users can vote news stories up or down, with the most popular stories rising to the top of the page. Unfortunately, despite its aspirations to let users to create no-hassle branded pages, Slinkset’s customization options are pretty limited. Site administrators can easily change design quickly or add CSS. They can add RSS feeds to get their sites populated as fast as shark, edit vote and link settings and can use their own custom domain.
“While the release of Reddit’s source code will help skilled programmers create their own social news site, it won’t do any good for the legions of bloggers and small-time sites that don’t know how to implement it, which is where I hope Slinkset comes in”, said, Slinkset co-founder Brett Gibson
Slinkset packed on a bunch of bells and whistles could take off quite well! I believe it’s aimed at users who are looking for a simple way to share news in a midsize group more than the hardcore web 2.0 crowd. It looks like it’ll serve that purposes just fine.














WOW great webservice this will surly help no technical users to get their social new site up and running without much hassle.

Just wanted to update you regarding an embeddable Popular Links widget at the bottom of your site that has recently been incorporated by Slinkset team. With the help of this feature, you or any other user can get the code and embed it in any HTML you’d like.
