Digg-ing the net

So today, on Wired News there was an article about Digg -- a news feeder site compiled by it's readers with particular dedication to information of the technological nature -- that is one month old today. The site is very much like Slashdot, and there are even sites comparing the two -- like DiggvsDot. Despite the hubbub, I've registered at Digg in order to try and keep on top of the lastest and greatest in the "tech" world. So far, I find that Digg is better suited to "cross-blogging" and "linking" to blogs which should make it interesting if I ever hook something into the Privvy.

Critics also say Digg is more chaotic than Slashdot, which often features more technical, detailed conversations. But Digg, with its tight weblog integration and Flickr-like reliance on the collective efforts of its members, is pointing the way to a new wave of socially assembled news initiatives, organized and made sense of by readers themselves.

I'd have to agree...
