Over at <a href="http://9rules.com/clips/" rel="nofollow">9rules Clips</a> (just launched yesterday during our version 6 redesign) we have a large and diverse Community that takes into account many different tastes including <a href="http://9rules.com/art/clips/" rel="nofollow">Art</a> & <a href="http://9rules.com/photography/clips/" rel="nofollow">Photography</a>. Again digg is in a difficult position because the geek crowd has already established what they like to see on the site so adding a new category probably won't even get noticed.

And arts and culture could also fir anywhere else - notice there's no "Animal" section - and just look at the sheer number of articles on animals there are, digg could do we the addition of more categories and subcategories.
