Digg.com, the news-democracy site is losing more and more fans. It seems that the minority can completely bury a story eventhough it receives a lot of diggs. Why is it so? Maybe because they just don’t like the story or it offends them – but then where is the democracy?
That’s just like the politicians in Sabah a few years back. After winning the election, they will quickly jump ship and change party and label his acts “in the interest of the people”. righttttttttttttttt.
Reddit has the same basic model however no minorities can change the ranking of any items.
As for myself, I seldom go to digg anymore because the site loads too slow for my liking. I go to reddit more nowadays.

sia memang prefer reddit dari digg reasonnya
1) digg slow hahahaha
2) digg ni macam ndak matured punya audience bah, reddit ppl tend to discuss heavy issues
tapi kan digg pun best jugak on certain parts
1) dia punya pagination best, hehehe sampai tertiru2 bah (css), sampai banyak site tiru style pagination links ala digg
2) content categories (reddit pun ada jugak macam programming.reddit.com but overall digg better la sia rasa
3) digg punya search better than reddit
users punya perangai both the same, except reddit punya audience macam tua sikit hehehe
