The quote is from a twitter user on our launch, really its not overly like reddit aside from the fact that users vote on content. That content is then ordered based on the score. You can view the front page by hot (score vs. time) best (score) or new (time). In the next few days we're launching a category feature that will allow users to select hashtags and fill in a scroll with content tagged with those hashtags, which is similar to how redditors subscribe to certain subs!

So the content is definitely user moderated, and there will be an aspect of sub-domains built in to the existing hashtag functionality.

Thank you for the clarification. I would very much welcome the addition of groups (private (invite only), read only and public) and allow users to take ownership and moderation duties for them.
Invite only isn't something we'd thought of - that's an excellent idea! Taking user interaction to another level. Beautiful!
