Want a Custom Digg? Wait Half a Year.

mashable.com — Last night there was a Digg meet-up in Chicago, and the attending press was particularly interested in getting comment from Digg folk Kevin Rose and Jay Adelson regarding the intense rumors of a $200 million acquisition by Google. Of course, as per usual, they had no comment on the matter.

k3y5rmy1if3, on 07/26/2008, -9/+3Zomg. Can't wait.
- misterrizzn, on 07/26/2008, -3/+1It's definitely an interesting upgrade - it's unfortunate it'll take so long, but it's actually made me want to use Reddit, and I was only a casual user of the site before.
- Nitesmoke, on 07/26/2008, -0/+1I'd like to be able to filter submissions that contain certain words such as "obama." I personally hate to filter anything, especially politics, one of my favorite subjects, but lately I had no choice. For the first time, I unchecked the "politics" and "world news" buttons because of the relentless Obama spam, but to no avail, because half of the political submissions are labeled as "offbeat" just to get to people like me that are tired of hearing it every day. Another customization: filter certain websites that spam the crap out of Digg, and make it to the top 10 no matter how bad the reporting is or is just plain false (huffington post and dailykos.)
  - triad203, on 07/28/2008, -0/+1Don't forget the ability to filter CERTAIN USERS. These are much more likely to be indicators of spam.

  Digg in and of itself is a great idea. Great ideas do not have to be complicated, you could imitate
  Digg with a little bit of effort. But the question is...will you have the userbase to support it? The site is all about user driven content.
  - infinitus64, on 07/26/2008, -3/+2well user submitted content.
  - QuadZeroRoute, on 07/26/2008, -0/+3infinitus64, getting the content for Digg is no problem. I already have a list of the top sites for Digg stories, all it would take is automating the submissions. What you need are the users....that is where the problem is. Getting users to abandon Digg and go to your site. What would be the draw?

2clone, on 07/26/2008, -4/+3Sounds like another useless feature,... kinda like digg ark or digg labs or what ever it was called.

helleborus, on 07/26/2008, -1/+11I would just like a digg wherein amu27 doesn't try to sell me pearl necklaces every day via shout. I see only 3 options regarding shouts: nobody, anybody or just my friends. I need an 'anybody but amu27' button.
- netneutrality, on 07/26/2008, -0/+2Click the little block button next to their name on one of the shouts.
  - helleborus, on 07/26/2008, -0/+2Never noticed that - thank you!
MavRevMatt, on 07/26/2008, -1/+2Why does everyone think this is so great? Reddit did a similar thing, if not the same thing a while back. Plus, you can easily create "your own digg" easily enough.
kh99, on 07/26/2008, -0/+3That's great, because I shouldn't ever have to see any stories or comments that don't support my worldview.
bizsumpark182, on 07/27/2008, -0/+1All good things take time. I say take as long as you need within reason and make its really good to go when its finished.
actionscripted, on 07/27/2008, -0/+1$200 mil. seems a bit low based on the traffic Digg generates and the acquisition price of other web portals/services.
