news.yc is a "social networking" site...

I'd try to lose that buzzword, but the concept of making sites that users can communicate over is still pretty solid.

But news.yc doesn't call itself a social networking site. There's a big difference between sites that happen to allow people to communicate and interact with each other, and sites that list "we're a social network" on their FAQ as a reason why they're different from the competition. The latter tend to be much lamer.

How is that not exactly what I said?
