    Well actually from when they have implemented their new design. They have lost about 70-80% of the people and hence lost the quality too. Its also that auto feed feature which makes it worst.

    Digg sucks now. It is awkward to navigate, ugly ass layout and the community has shrunk.

    While it's not the most attractive website, I find some of the best news coverage at the Drudge Report.
    Matt Drudge broke into the forefront of the journalistic world in a very interesting way, back in the 1990's. I won't spoil it by telling about it here. But it's worth googling.

    Yeah, I noticed. I used to be a frequent visitor as well - I had a very active account. It's that stupid update that they made, I liked the old look.

    Anyway, all the stuff on the frontpage is the stuff I can easily find on Google News, there's no more of that funny tech stuff on there anymore =[.

    I loved their old design and interface. Why is nobody telling them that the new design IS their problem? Don't they see that??? Is it pride? Ignorance? Or what?
