] What is digg?
]
] Digg is a technology news website that gives editorial
] control back to the community. Most technology websites
] allow users to suggest content by submitting links or
] stories to an editor. If the editor believes the story
] to be relevant to the masses, he or she moves the story
] to the homepage. With digg, users also submit links for
] review. But rather than allowing an editor to decide
] which links go on the homepage, the users do.

] How does digg work?
]
] Lets start off by looking at the diagram below. (1) The
] user submits a story to the "hardware" category. (2) The
] story is then filed into the "dig" area of hardware. (3)
] Users on the site see the story, and several of them
] click "dig this story" - giving the article 15 digs. (4)
] Due to it's popularity, digg removes the story from the
] dig area, and promotes it to the home and category pages.

I thought Decius might find this interesting in its approach. I got to it after a few clickthroughs from some other irrelevant story on slashdot.

Another News Site? Sounds vaguely familiar...
