Digg: Relaunch Will Expand Our Appeal
Telegraph, Wednesday, March 17, 2010 2 PM
Hoping to revive its digital darling status, social news site Digg is planning a big relaunch, which, CEO Jay Adelson promises, will not "dilute" its appeal. Rather, it will help users to focus more effectively than ever on what is of interest to them, Adelson tells The Telegraph. This weekend, at the South by Southwest conference, Adelson was giving members of the press more details on the coming changes.
"The key changes to Digg will be a greater focus on personalization [sic], a more flexible taxonomy in which every keyword on the site can become a topic and a community, and one-click submission to Digg, including the option to submit anonymously or using a login from sites such as Facebook or Twitter," writes The Telegraph. To boot, users will soon be able to submit stories to Digg from anywhere on the Web.
