I’m quite happy to read that Digg is Back over at VentureBeat. I was a heavy user at Digg some time ago. As the article notes, several key changes caused me to drift away, mostly to Reddit. Now, though, I’ve grown weary of the crowd at Reddit…meaning the trolls. The ugly commentary and rude treatment of each other there made me wander off. So, I’m pleased that Digg is making some sort of a comeback.
Yet I’m skeptical. In the internet world, comebacks have met minimal success. AOL, Yahoo! and MySpace come to mind, mainly. But we’ll see. Anything is possible. And their is a niche to be filled for the wonky-types, at least.
Oh, and I just discovered the Digg Reader. Building in a RSS reader could make this particularly glorious to me. Just starting the exploration, so we’ll see what comes of it.
