So Digg is officially a cautionary tale now.. Newsweek is wrong though. Digg wasn't beaten by Twitter, or even by its own redesign. It was beaten because instead of building a great community they focused on being the best place to share links. And over time those links started to suck. Digg was really beaten by itself, and by Reddit.
