The comments are horrific now that they've branched off into new categories, and I'd like to see them cleaned up, but even I'm guilty of making stupid comments now and then. The problen with the bury comments feature is that people like me waste their time and open those buried comments back up just to see what was written. Although it sounds anti-democratic I wish digg would just delete comments that have -10 thumbs down. (although I understand why they won't ;)) Also, I understand your point about linking directly to the source but I could really care less where the 'interesting' story comes from so long as it is interesting. Joe Blow took the time to put the story on his blog and Joe Blow took the time to post it on digg so why should I punish him for the effort? Is it better to push that traffic to the big corporations? GL I'm not sure if you saw the article about the photoshopped 'news' photo on Reuters but that made me wonder (once again) why and how we can put so much faith in the 'big guys'. I'm getting off topic but sometimes the nature of digg of is to digg stories from Engadget, just because it's Engadget if you get my drift. I won't digg down articles unless they're lame or they have chinese characters as the title. :lol: **start Forrest Gump voice** That's all I have to say about that **end Forrest Gump voice** p.s. good job on the urls. Just get rid of the dates ;) Good article GL but you’re dreaming. :lol: I’ll give you an A+ for the sentiment though. ;)

Digg users are going use digg they way they want to use it, no matter what; at least that’s what I think.

The comments are horrific now that they’ve branched off into new categories, and I’d like to see them cleaned up, but even I’m guilty of making stupid comments now and then.
