Version 3.0 released today. It’s pretty slick looking. I don’t remember offhand what the new features are, but I’m going to spend some time on there.

For those who don’t know what Digg is, it’s a technology focused news site where the stories are chosen by community members rather than editors.

“In addition to a redesign (that retains the essential Digg “experience”), Digg is adding a number of news categories beyond technology. Topics are grouped into six “containers”, including technology, entertainment, gaming, science, world & business, and online video. The default view on Digg is still the technology container, although users can change that view and can also deselect individual topics within containers to further refine what they see on the home page.

There are other significant feature additions as well (we go through all of them in the podcast). In addition to seeing what your friends have dugg, users can also just see stories more than one friend has dugg, further filtering new stories to what they might really want to see. Also, changing views between top stories and new stories won’t require a page refresh - Digg has added Ajax features (sparingly, they stress) to switch quickly between headlines and new stories, and among topics/containers.” - Article from TechCrunch
