Kinda. Is Digg still relevant?

• mikeryan 16y ago
  Is this just snark or a real question? AFAIK digg is still one of the largest news aggregation sites on the web and is right now still looking for both a sustaining revenue stream and (maybe) an exit. They're relevant on a whole ton of fronts.

    Agreed they are very relevant. However, in the tech community there are a lot of eyeballs on them because they've taken so much funding that they need a huge exit to make investors happy and for the acquisition to look like a success on Digg's end. They've yet to find that even though they've talked to many companies including Google. Also, they are no longer experiencing the growth they used to have and have somewhat flatlined, so many are skeptics that the new Digg will really help bring more traffic.

    Both. I never seen anything of quality at Digg. Seems like a "news" aggregator polluted with links to everything internet. I guess 'lack of focus' might be the right word.
