As I posted on FastCompany last month, Digg has until May to get the help (which we’ve offered on multiple occasions free of charge) they need to get back on track or they will miss their last window of opportunity to keep from going the way of Propeller, MySpace, and Yahoo Buzz. That helped to prompt the recent round of Digg-hate from the blogosphere. | SOSHABLE JULY 13, 2012 Selling Like This May Be The Best Thing (almost) Ever for Digg The only that would have been better for Digg would have been had it sold at its peak rather than it’s downfall, but there is a distinct potential for a silver lining to the news that Digg was sold for parts bit by bit over the past couple of months, culminating in the sub-million purchase of the domain and remaining assets by Betaworks. There are rare things in this world. | | | | | | | SOSHABLE SEPTEMBER 20, 2011 Digg Newsroom Beta May Just Be Enough To Regain Relevance Over the last year since the launch of version 4, Digg has faced challenges in regaining its relevance in social media. It has seemed at times as if Digg may go the way of MySpace, Propeller, and Yahoo Buzz – social sites that were once big news but failed to adapt to a changing social sphere. Today, they launched Digg Newsrooms in limited beta. Traffic is down. | SOSHABLE FEBRUARY 19, 2011 At Digg, There is Hope (and rightfully so) There seems to be a paradigm shift going on over at Digg that hearkens to the cries of users and publishers alike longing for the glory of old. It would appear that for the first time in over a year, Digg senior management is not only listening to the users, they’re acting upon what they’re hearing. Digg has gotten much better at communicating their changes on the blog. | NOWSOURCING JULY 13, 2012 RIP Digg: Enter the New Social Media Frontier If you were a top Digg user, you had clout (not klout, that’s for newbies, stick with me here) in the newly emerging Web 2.0 Digg, the once frontrunner of the pack, started mindlessly catering to the publishers only. And now Digg’s been sold. You can have the best technology and team in the world but you’re nothing without a community. Early Times. | SOSHABLE AUGUST 2, 2009 7 Reasons Why I Won’t Tweet Diggbar Links Ever Again… Regardless of what anyone at Digg says, this was just wrong. We were pulled in because it was easy to use, helped to promote strong content, and displayed the source to everyone who clicked on it, Digg user or not. It now takes the vast majority of most people’s Twitter followers to the page on Digg relating to the content. Digg Users Don’t Like It. Blast. | | | | | | | | | -
IDACONCPTS | WEDNESDAY, MAY 4, 2011 Why Reddit Continues to be Relevant According to Digg’s top brass, these changes were meant to bring in more revenue to the site, giving corporations and companies more control over content and more exposure for their own content. However, this went against what many people felt was the point of Digg: allowing anyone to potentially make the front page of the site. The Problem with Digg. This switch to corporate interests isn’t anything new for social media sites; Twitter, Facebook, and others have made changes over the years that do more to make money than they do to satisfy the user.
