I’ve Really Lost Faith In The Digg Community Now
Some of the idiots who stalk Digg and leave inane comments have gone too far now in my view. Spencer H. Kim, father of James Kim who tragically died last year, posted a story in the Washington Post laying out some criticisms of the way the search was conducted for his son and family.

Guy Blocks Digg Due to Hate Comments
Kevin Burton of Tailrank spotted an interesting ‘Digg’ story a few days ago. Some poor guy made it onto Digg, but didn’t like the comments that were being left, so he blocked Digg and put up a nice error page in it’s place:

Digg’s Spam Policy Is Still In The Dark Ages
I’ve just read two articles that highlight how poor Digg’s spam controls are, and how Digg is struggling to achieve its original mission of letting its users decide what gets on the homepage.
The first article gives some possible ways to get a competitor’s site banned. I’m certain that there must be people out there [...]
