Today and yesterday brought two major changes to Digg. Personally, I like the look of both changes, though I’ve yet to see the actual implementation yet.
Today Digg launched a much needed overhaul to the commenting system. I don’t think there is anyone on Digg who liked the way the comment system was. Nuff said about that.
Yesterday’s update isn’t going to make the “power diggers” too happy. The algorithm that determines what stories to promote to the front page has been tweaked. The changes should help to promote diversity in digging and discourage group digging. If it works as planed, I’m all for it.
