Digg, the People's Fark

Wait a sec, I like Fark. I do. The labels alone [Florida] are worthy of a lifetime achievement award in snark. But Digg is Fark for the masses.

Anyone can Digg something and people push it up or down. It's democracy in action. Diggers as they call themselves (I'm a peripheral Digger) seem to like a few things, nudity, fail, politicians doing bad things, Anonymous, cool picture collections (space, nudity, fail... pattern evolving), articles referencing Digg or Diggers, stats, weird news, and Dont Taze me Bro.

But mostly IT people like it because they can find new, cool stuff and show off what they found to other IT people. It's sort of a big closed feedback loop.
