Diggers are revolting and it looks like the inhabitants of the ivory tower at digg have talked to the great unwashed to cut a deal. Not sure yet if it’s the deal wanted, or if it’s just talk. But here is the conversation from around town.

Great set of articles there, I wondered what had been going on. Those Digg users certainly get their panties in a twist :)

Revolting is the way for us humans. Name any site and see a similar revolt after a certain time period. The web 2.0 sites and social media news sites are perfect for such revolts. Everyone wants to be the head honcho.  I still love Digg though but understand the revolt by a few leading groups.

Important to note it resulted in a conversation with Kevin Rose and Jay Adelson. They answered many concerns and agreed to make an open forum for people to communicate with Digg and have a monthly conversation to talk about concerns.

It’s true, they did talk the talk. Question is, can they walk the walk. And how is that going to look to a potential buyer? I don’t think this chapter is quite over yet, but what a page turner.

It certainly will be interested to see how this pans out... it sort of reminiscent of the Hollywood Writer strike. no? Thanks for posting Lyndon.
