 * I think it’s important to encourage as much user activity as possible.
 * So I’d like a page in my blog with one purpose: to display links (categorized)
   that users themselves submit.
 * In a perfect world I’d like a tiny admin interface where I create the categories
   and then the users can submit links, edit existing links and even delete (or 
   report to admin) bad links.
 * However, I can’t find anything that even resembles this functionality.
 * Have any of you had better luck?

 * there are a hundred standalone scripts for something like this.(see hotscripts.
   com). and fwiw, link sharing pages suck (imho).
 * why?
    1. they’re spam targets 2. they require more upkeep then they are worth(
   see #1)
 * So, no, I havent had any luck, and I wont either.
 * —
 * A link submitted by a random surfer to a site has no value whatsoever to me. 
   I wont click it, and I wont think twice about not clicking it.
 * If I read your site, I might be interested in what YOU chose to link to, not 
   some google querying dolt that found your site through some obscure search. bleh.

 * I understand your point. The spam could definately be an issue.
 * Perhaps it would work better if an admin would have to publish the submitted 
   links, and accept submitted changes to existing links.
 * I still want the user generated link list. Properly moderated it would be of 
   greater value to users than if I try to keep track of everything that’s relevant
   myself.
 * I can see that this would be a fairly complicated plug in so my hopes are not
   so high of finding something.
    Still hopeing though.

 * I’m tweaking a blog to turn it into a small photo challenge and a ‘Submit your
   link’ plugin that autmatically displays the photo links would be greatly appreciated.
   I know a [site powered by Movable Type](http://moodymonday.org/) that does that,
   and I’m surprised no one came up with this for WordPress.
