Exclusive: New Digg Voting Feature To Launch (Screenshot)
The somewhat blurry image above is, we believe, a new Digg homepage voting feature that will launch in the near future. So what is it? It’s not the “ Real Time Digg ” relaunch that will integrate data from Twitter and other sources. Instead, we believe it is an experimental feature Digg will try out that encourages users to vote on whether a particular upcoming story should make it to the homepage or not. Digg isn’t talking, so we don’t know much else. The 3/25 numbers on the left are a counter to show how much longer the story will remain on the home page (3 minutes, 25 seconds, based on us squinting at a blow up). It’s notable that users are asked to vote a story up or down without seeing comments or how others have voted. The identity of the hand is also a mystery. More on this when it launches.
