Digg has really gone a long way and I’m sure it will only get better. Yeah, it’s being used a lot for spam, but I’m sure the founds will know what to do. If it was hurting them, they’d have shut it down, but I doubt it is.

I just wonder what stops people to hire 50 guys in India that just give your site thumbs up and leaving smart comments. Then you have a lot of proxies so they can vote several times on same site. It feels like this system is very easy to manipulate.

It’s not a new concept, but I sincerely hope that they can come around a better UI instead of fudging up the clean cut interface we’re all used to.

[...] 18th July – Google Continues To Test A Search Interface That Looks More Like Digg Every Day (hugoguzman) A great insight from Michael Arrington from TechCrunch regarding Google’s dabblings with user participation and personalisation. It’s already thought that Google’s current click-tracking influences the position of natural results in some circumstances; just like with paid search listings. So Digg-style voting on search results is logically the next step. Hopefully this doesn’t result in complacency at Google, as many SEOs are already experimenting with organic search click-bots, and auto-voting would not be much harder to achieve.

Why is anyone surprised at this? The Page Rank algo was designed to measure user intent. This is just another step down the same path. Google has always been a social search engine. That’s why they are who they are. They were social before anyone was even describing social media.

This is the end of Google as a Web 1.0 search service, and first baby steps as a Web 2.0 search service where Google may fail. Big players are already there like FaceBook, Digg. They provide content-oriented (not just page-oriented) search results. For example check out one content-oriented Web 2.0 search service for digital content and 3D models: 3DSN.com.
Sample seach for, say, Apple iPhone:

http://3dsn.com...amp;category=13

Search results are based on content, not on number of keywords found on page and repeated over and over to make page rank look higher.
