DNK story tracebacks (traceback to DNK not from DNK)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I just thought of an interesting idea. Well, its something similar to what
DIGG has so its not new.

What if we add a traceback handler so bloggers could blog about stories
they found here. They would give a traceback to the original author and
could say (via DNK, etc.) where the traceback would be to the DNK story.

Then we could show a box containing "user's who blogged about this", etc.
and links to the user's blogs (should require a valid DNK user account).
This might require us finishing the OpenId so we can link a blog to a user
(validated not just via profile). We'd also need another table something
like Story_Blogged_By that contains a URL and userId.

This might cut down on the multiple story submissions, since bloggers will be 
able to
get props by blogging an existing published story instead of submitting a new 
story.

Nice idea, this will work particularly well for a small community like DNK. Are 
there
any .NET implementations of OpenID?

I noticed one OpenId project in codeplex for C#. I think the OpenId web site 
has a
list of implementations in different languages/technologies and I think that's 
how I
found that.
