I will be updating this post as i get new screens and information.
Almost 2 weeks ago Todd Malicoat and myself got the chance to visit Digg and test out the features that are being released as i type.
Right from the start you will notice two things. There is a combined section to show all forms of media in one view, as mentioned on the Digg Blog. Secondly, there is a much larger focus on the friends and profiles within Digg.
I see a lot of posts with new pictures that just are not new. All except the Breadcrumbs and the combined media pages have not yet been shown to the public.
`
You will also notice the difference in the way the articles are ordered. The site now comes before the description and there are some new graphics. You will also note that you will only see the bury button if you have not dugg an article and you can now bury without giving a reason.
`
Also you can see that the video submissions have started to show in the Hot in All Topics list as well with a nice little icon.
What are those little green things in the top left hand corner of the yellow digg box? I don’t get any of them on mine!
The green part is the friends indicator.
Aside from adding the “All” category and a few minor visual things of moving things around. . . its nothing to write home about.
Also, its annoying to know that the “bury” feature which you had to select why you wnated to bury something is now pointless. They make explaining why you bury something optional, which means that all burys count the same. So why make more work for us? All this time ! :shakes head:
I happened upon this site while following the links from another site. Your site is wonderful and i bookmarked it. Thank your for the hard work you must have put in to create this wonderful facility. Keep up the excellent work
