Newswise, the Newest Big Thing, Digg

Digg, a collaborative editing site, where links to stories are posted and ranked by readers is the next big thing in media. Digg was first introduced to the online world through the Daily Telegraph in Britain. It’s basically up to the readers to determine what news is important for a particular day, and in fact, how to tell it.

The users select which stories are to appear, and from where, whether it be the Telegraph or the New York Post, by submitting the story links. They also determine the order in which they appear.

Sites such as Digg are becoming more and more popular, Digg has more than 8 million visitors each month and more than 300,000 active registered users.
