Slashdot used to be my main Internet source for techy and nerdy news. WA1U recently mentioned how his allegiance had switched from Slashdot to digg, so I checked out digg for a week or so and I definitely dig digg more than I dig Slashdot.
I will continue to check Slashdot for awhile, but digg is now my main source for news about "stuff that matters."
i've also transitioned from reading slashdot to reading digg. i went one step further and read all digg submissions via my bloglines account. 2 or 3 times a day i quickly scan thru all the submitted stories.
ReplyDeletewhile i love the "wisdom of crowds," which brings me the front page of digg, i trust my own judgment in not missing something important that someone else is submitting to digg.
truth be told, a lot of digg members are teenagers, and their own tastes and interests might be slightly different than mine.
