Not currently, no. If you post a link someone else already has it automatically redirects to the original post.

That seems like a pretty big oversight. You want hubski to be little clusters of individual communities, yet any time some big, important news breaks, the entire site is forced to talk about it in the same thread?

Personally, as someone who reads more than I'll ever likely post, I kinda prefer that in a way. One of my problems with reddit has actually been when big news breaks and you want to get a bunch of different perspectives on it, you need to hunt down posts about the news across several different sub-reddits.

This also nips reposts (and the incessant complaints re: reposts) in the bud as well as promoting discovery. Kind of a neat bug if you ask me.
