Zharf says he has launched a new site similar [Fa] to digg and reddit in Persian. The blogger says site's name is Balatarin and everybody can add a link to that. All of the links on Balatarin will be from users who are rewarded for good submissions (and punished for bad ones) by their peers.

    Diggeh.com is an alternative to balatarin. It is much cleaner. Diggeh is uniquely in primarily English font, though perfectly capable of handling Persian font.
