Tracking the top Diggers
For the past 15 months, I’ve been maintaining a list of the top 100 (and top 1000) Digg users. As Digg has become less and less relevant to my interests (and the interests of the greater tech community), I’ve decided to stop updating these lists. However, I have chosen to provide the tools I have…

Kevin Rose removed from Top Diggers Lists
Some of you may have noticed that Kevin Rose (Digg user kevinrose) no longer appears in both the Digg’s Top 100 and Top 1,000 Users lists. It was recently brought to my attention that Kevin’s profile page shows that he has submitted 295 stories to Digg, but somehow, 298 of his submissions have reached the…

Buggy Digg RSS Feeds: Resolved
Digg finally fixed the bug I reported and wrote about here 3 months ago. When you consider that my feed reader checks for new items every 15 minutes, 10 hours per day, I received an unreadable feed almost 4,000 times.

Diggers get what they want, don’t want it anymore
Digg finally implemented threaded comments yesterday, and the top story on Digg right now is a harsh criticism of the new system. The consensus appears to be that while the new system is a step forward in terms of technical functionality, it’s two steps back for usability. New features on a large community site will…

Is Digg hiding stories from search?
This link to the Navigator 9 download page was submitted to Digg around noon on Tuesday and received 10 diggs over the next 24 hours. A story about a Firefox-based browser release submitted by a top-100 Digger? That sounds like possible front-page material to me – why only 10 diggs? Maybe it’s because the story…
