The Guardian Experimenting With Letting Users Add Un-moderated Content

The Guardian newspaper started an experiment today that is just asking for trouble in my view.  They’ve setup a shared del.icio.us account that will allow users to post links directly to the Guardian website.

This is definitely going to be abused by spammers, as the only way they can remove a link is after it has been published. I give the experiment a week before it is pulled.
