Digg Upgrade

July 15th, 2005

Via Jake Jarvis, I see that Digg has been updated. It’s a bit slow to load, but well worth a revisit. Digg is one of those second generation social bookmarking tools which attempt to bring the ratings of its users into play:

“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 allowing an editor to decide which stories go on the homepage, the users do.”

This is really interesting stuff that goes beyond just tagging content. It brings the “wisdom of the crowds” into the mix.
