Digg Smigg - Digg Aint Going Anywhere!!

What a load of crock…

“Digg’s not making enough money they are going to go down”

“Digg’s too old now people are not interested”

“Digg’s going to be taken over by another social media company”

I wouldn’t be suprised if half of these comments are spawned by the monolithic money hungry media outlets to try and cause disrupt in the Web 2.0 community.

After all Digg is stepping on their toes and taking away valuable readership from their oh so preciouse reader base.

Its about time someone gave big time media a run for its money.

Sure Digg is not in most cases going to give you the local news… But on a world scale of important online events nothing beats it.  It would be fantastic to see Digg add some form of localization to their model though.

Imagine having Digg.com.au for Australian news results, or perhaps Digg.co.uk for UK news results.

This would totally rock the world of major news sites that is for sure.

There has not been one day gone past where I go to Digg and dont find something interesting to read or some crazy ground breaking article.

You just can’t get this type of reading material from normal media outlets.

Perhaps its because I’m a geek, or maybe I have a taste in news that is aptly suited to Digg.

The point is most media outlets are missing something very important…. Us

We are what decides what becomes popular and what is just trash, the implications of this are huge.

Most Digital news channels these days would have the capability to add simple tv voting through your remote on news articles.

Sure its not an online medium but then we still get to see at a glance what is hot & what is not.

Yet I am sure this is not in their “profit model” to bother thinking about…

Wake Up & Smell The Roses… Digg is here and its not going anywhere.
