In Digg’s own words – What is digg? Digg is a technology news website that combines social bookmarking, blogging, RSS, and non-hierarchical editorial control. With digg, users submit stories for review, but rather than allow an editor to decide which stories go on the homepage, the users do.
Digg has been only around short time, but is already one of the most trafficed site. Because of the huge quantity and quality of news, Digg.com has become one of the most addictive sites around.

What can I say? It has to be my biggest distraction from work…
One of the websites that I have opened in my webbrowser all the time. The only thing that would make digg better, would be more bandwidth. It’s really slow sometimes.
I didn’t vote for digg.com as the best News website because it’s mostly geek news. Sorry folks, there is more to life than technology news. If I owned digg, I would have split it off into a whole bunch of different topic, for example politics.digg.com, or a subdomain for stock markets. My .02
This is my daily source of news to get updated with the daily happenings in the world. Like this site.
You can’t beat Digg – you can’t.
i check digg about as often as i check my email
More Digg Tools http://tinyurl.com/eq5tn
Its a great site for news and information but v3 is somewhat lacking in the volume of new stories unlike the previous version. i guess adding other categories kind of changed things
For me this is the most original web 2.0 concept !
yea nice
I just do not understand why Digg shows up in searches on Google. Don’t get me wrong. I think Digg is a good service and provides many sites with a good bit of traffic. For example, TechCrunch reported that 80% of the traffic to the site comes from Digg. (reported by Arrington in September 2006)
I wanted to invite you to check out this site that I have built with some of my friends. It's called MOLI and can be found at www.moli.com.
Its a new type of online networking site where you can create multiple profiles - all under 1 account, and you can permission each of your profiles so that you control who can see what you post. We also produce original content and videos daily. Its got better tools than myspace and facebook and is built for artists, photographers, film makers, designers, and anyone who is creative.
Check it out and let me know your thoughts.
Here is a link to my profile: www.moli.com/gorby
Thanks!
