Has any of the many "Hacker news for...." sites ever taken off?

well, i tend to view reddit as the 'hacker news for everything' if that counts.. otherwise, i don't really think so. but i'd argue its related in that reddit has made such sites largely unnecessary. subreddits can be as narrow or broad in topic, and as open or regulated in curation as one wants. i see little value in a 'finance news' (for example) when there's /r/finance and probably around 100 other finance-related…

The hacker news for x trend is interesting, but I think the format is badly suited for small communities. The high data density of the front page makes a site with moderate activity feel like a ghost town.

I'm surprised no one has made a "Hacker News for Hacker News for X" site yet...

This is one of the "HN for X" websites that I truly hope takes off. I have signed up, and submitted a few interesting articles. I've already found a few interesting reads on their homepage. Best of luck to the DataTau founders!
