I was only reminded that Digg had relaunched when they shut back down again.
@paul I tried it for a couple of days a few weeks ago, and I cannot stress enough that it is just Reddit with fewer people.
@paul When I read their plans, it sounded like they were aiming for the worst things about Reddit as core features.

@paul To think they were the king of the world until they did a dumb redesign. That was all it took.

I was surprised when I saw there were coming back and wondered why anyone would care.

I guess I have my answer.

It seems that only the bots noticed

@paul Always felt more like a midlife crisis and a grasp for relevance than anything anyone wanted IMO. Rose’s record post-Digg has been one of short lived flare outs, so I didn’t really expect much.

The Internet is a very different place than the Web 2.0 era, and a much less easy going, fun one.
