it really depends on the culture of the location you're planning on attacking. While Reddit/Digg is hot here in the states. the same concept might not fly in other countries. I had a few buddies who started a Digg-like site a couple years back in Taiwan. It never really took off because culturally people over there just wasn't into it. Majority of consumers are still using BBS systems to share news and info even though there are plenty of 2.0 social sites on the market.
