We’ve finally gotten around to redesigning the Digg blog. We’ve moved to the Wordpress engine, so we now have a lot more control over the features and the interface design.
With the new blog, everyone working at Digg is an author, so even people like me (I’m the graphic designer) can post to the blog about issues that particularly interest us. Hopefully you’ll see a bunch of posts in the future from the different members of the Digg team. Visually, the blog has a cleaner, simpler, and fresher design based on the style we started with the Labs site… obviously with a slight color twist.
We’ve also added the ability to Digg new blog stories, just like you can implement on your own site. Learn how to do it yourself in the Digg tools section. This makes it easier to Digg stories and eliminates duplicate submissions. And, it’s always a good idea to use your own tools!
It’s great to have this out the door. Lots of great stuff is coming down the pipes at Digg, so you stay classy Internet.
