bigthawt.com — Private messaging has been the gaping hole in the Digg experience since launch. How can you expect to sustain a community, where members can’t contact each other? The same interface principles used in Gmail to implement Google Chat could be applied to Digg. A Pownce buddy list, populated with your Digg friends, could appear right on the home page.

exactly. and add to all of that the friends feature in digg is to keep track of people who digg like you, or digg things that are interesting to you, not people you necessarily know. with a chat feature, the flame wars could get even more personal, and i think it might end up facilitating more spamming and scamming of digg.instead, how about more news and less noise on my social news site: digg is NOT a social bookmarking site. up there, at the top of this page, where all of these _stories_ are categorized, it says NEWS.

It actually seems to be working fine now. I think they must've changed how the "Reply To" options show up.
