@polymath22

I have signed for mixx, stumbleupon and reddid. I like all of them, expect reddit. Actually, I used stumbleupon before digg.

@knud

That looks nice! I hope that your idea works.

I am working on a site which try to solve many of the problems with digg.com.
You can find it on http://crowdnews.eu.

The main problem with digg is the voting system.
When only top voted stories get on the front page it has
to be a subject that many can relate to,
which result in stories with a low information content.

Crowdnews solves this by using sharing instead of voting.
Every have a personal news page on which they can subscribe to other users and when those users share stories they will appear on the personal news page.

there are lots of alternatives to digg that are MUCH better.

try Reddit.com, mixx.com, ning.com, and stumbleupon.com (needs the firefox browser and stumble buttons, google for and download and install, its easy)
