What is a co-ranking (cooperative ranking) site?

A coRanking site is a site where you can share whatever you find interesting on the web and where you can also find what's interesting from people whose opinion are important to you. Everyone then can vote (rank) up what they liked, or vote down what they didn't like.

Everything on Hot Deals is submitted by Hot Deals users, and after they submit a Deal, other people will read it and give it a thumb up or down. If that Deal receives enough positive votes, it is promoted to the Featured page.

Hot Deals also offers each user their own "Featured" page, and the Deals promoted to their own "Featured" page page are determined only by the votes of the people this user has previously selected - these are what we call, the user's sources.
