  • Speed, on 12/03/2007, -1/+141We can always fall back on the comment system, I guess.
  • mklopez, on 12/03/2007, -4/+142A universal category tree, independent of the media type? A whole new set of subcategories under "offbeat"? A new "lifestyle" section? and a duplicate image finder?
    OMG... Could it be that the digg developers actually READ our comments? Thank you guys!
  • bigredgpk, on 12/03/2007, -11/+130How about a new comment system?
  • svodka, on 12/03/2007, -7/+111I hope everyone still adds [PIC] to the title.

  • joestump, on 12/03/2007, -0/+91We actually read everyone else's but yours. I keed! We read everything you guys write and, believe it or not, a good majority of your ideas make it into our project pipeline. Unfortunately, we can't always do them all as quickly as we all would like. If you'd like to help with this endeavor please note we're hiring developers at http://digg.com/jobs :)

  • Flamancot, on 12/03/2007, -2/+77lol..... cats.
  • sockpuppets, on 12/03/2007, -3/+77Kevin is the male heartthrob over at digg. He's into skateboards, suicide girls and overpriced lattes. I think he has a powerbook with mighty mouse laser etched in the cover.
  • sfrench, on 12/03/2007, -2/+71We do.
  • parkermauney, on 12/03/2007, -8/+74I dugg you up because Kevin did.
  • dyreschlock, on 12/03/2007, -1/+61don't worry .. a video section didn't stop people from posting [video] in the title.
  • ArmyOfFun, on 12/03/2007, -1/+58"It's just a little airborne. It's still good. It's still good."
  • ,,|,_, on 12/03/2007, -4/+57Thank goodness they're calling it "Images" and not "Pics" or "Pictures"...
  • inactive, on 12/03/2007, -9/+61Steve Jobs too pleeze..
  • relaxeder, on 04/17/2009, -6/+55Ah *****, I can't believe you've done this.
  • joestump, on 12/03/2007, -0/+47Not for much longer.
  • sockpuppets, on 12/03/2007, -2/+47Images or it didn't happen.
  • bonkeykong, on 12/03/2007, -2/+46Dugg for Ron Paul
  • sockpuppets, on 12/03/2007, -1/+42A million diggs and four dollars will get you a cup of coffee.
  • thelastcivilian, on 12/03/2007, -2/+43Have they announced whether it will be released for Infinium Labs' Phantom console?
  • op12, on 12/03/2007, -1/+41You can see some of the reasons it's taken as long as it has (universal taxonomy, duplicate detection, photobucket integration), though I still think it would have been better to debut something more basic earlier and then keep adding on to it.

    My biggest question is: Will there be a way to flag/hide pics that are NSFW? And even if there is a way, can NSFW pics make it to the frontpage? I could care less when I'm at home, but at work it's a different story.
  • Gonz037, on 12/03/2007, -3/+42I'll place a bet that the whiney little bitches start complainng about 1.5 minutes after changes are implemented.
  • Falldog, on 12/03/2007, -0/+38There are going to be a lot of [TEXT] submissions.
  • goyney, on 12/03/2007, -1/+38They need to make a lolcatz sub-section within the Images section!
  • Me1000, on 12/03/2007, -1/+34Canadian or United States?
  • ChrisWalkr, on 12/03/2007, -3/+35Your not funny anymore.
  • airtran, on 12/03/2007, -7/+37Right, now when are we going to fix the flipping comment system?
  • bs0l, on 12/03/2007, -1/+30I think they know the issue with the comment system. I know I was kind of harsh, but that's whats been needed for the longest time.
  • stalefries, on 12/03/2007, -0/+28Where do I get these so called "Digg sandwiches"?
