Digg ain't no /. killer despite what everyone wants to think. We are all wired up on tech news but there are only so many hours in the day and I, for one, do not want to waste my time digging up the two bits of golden pieces of news out of the ton of childish digg stories, few kids with too much time has posted and made popular. Even though the /. became nothing more than the announcement board of open source movement lately, it still has some value as I can relate to at least half of the posts there whereas none of the first page posts at digg was intriguing enough to even click the link in the last 2 weeks. Digg is another fad fuelled by the young geek wanna-be crowd. As they mature, they will learn the value of time and then fad will go away or shift to some other medium adopted by the same crowd of that time. It has been proven over and again, online ads are not sufficient to make a venue profiatble. And I am wondering what other methods of money making scheme can digg devise. Subscription model ? Naahh. Nobody from the crown who made digg what it is today, can or will want to pay for something as useless as this. This may be the beginning of the second coming of the dotcom bust before it booms this time. I beg to differ from the first poster. Digg ain’t no /. killer despite what everyone wants to think.
