Those traffic numbers are really impressive...aside from their popularity, I think Buzzfeed is probably the content site that actually gets the value of an efficient CMS. It's easy to dismiss them as being nothing but listicles, but lots of sites have tried to do that and don't come close to the well-thought out finesse of Buzzfeed.

On a related note, I kind of wish that HN would remove its blanket ban of the Buzzfeed domain. Their longform section has as great of HN-likable original content as any other legit site: http://www.buzzfeed.com/longform

Users should still exercise the right to flag the Buzzfeed list crap off of HN...but let's face it, with the numbers at Buzzfeed claims, the HN bump would merely be a blip for them.
