Does anyone use Digg these days?

You know, I’m sure most of you are aware of Digg.com. The site is an insanely popular “social news” site that started the whole voting for news stories craze that so many other sites are emulating these days. It started out as tech news, but has since moved on to include entertainment news, videos, podcasts, and much more.

I’ve really started using Digg a lot recently. I’ve always visited the site, but only recently have I started digging lots of stories, submitting stories from a bunch of different sites, and getting into the whole “digg thing”. Anyway, I’m enjoying Digg now that I’m actually using it for the same reasons most users are – to find interesting news.

I’ve had my fair share of stories posted on Digg. Some submitted by myself, other submitted by readers – and it’s certainly fun to get those big spikes of traffic – but what’s much more fun about Digg is the Friends aspect of it. By adding Friends you get to see what they’re digging, and what they think it interesting.

I’ve added a handful of people, but I thought I would post a link here – since I talk to you guys more than anyone else – so if you’re digg users (or want to become digg users), then I can see what you’re digging, and vice versa. Anyway, if you’re interested, click here to either join up, or add me as a Friend. It’ll be nice to see what the Apple Gazette Community is into…other than Apple.
