Possibly publishers can submit their content to include in Yahoo buzz, there is a link on Yahoo Buzz page which reads “Publishers: publish your content on Buzz!”, when i click it is going to Yahoo employer login page. Yahoo may allow publishers to submit their “feeds” (URLs of the stories looks like they are updated from feeds).

There is some buzz score on each article, buzz score relates to the position of the story on the page.

When you click the Buzz button it will lead to that story page, with related stories below this story.
