Digg: Internet faster and more instant
At its annual South by Southwest Interactive (SXSWi) party Saturday night, Digg announced that it will soon launch a significantly revamped version of its service that is faster and has instant Digging and instant submissions.
Just before Digg founder Kevin Rose and his Diggnation partner Alex Albrecht took the stage at Stubb’s BBQ here, CEO Jay Adelson got in front of the audience of hundreds and took the opportunity to introduce, for the first time, what he said was “five years” of major work on the popular headline aggregation system.
Among the new features, Adelson said, are that any keyword can be its own category; that submissions will be a one-click process; that users will no longer have to log in to Digg something; that people’s Digg home pages will be affected by their own interests; that the service is bringing back leader boards; and that it is ripping out its MySQL back end and moving to a infrastructure that will be “very, very fast.”

Secret Project Launched!!
This is a total Life 2.0 kind of story. I noticed last week on Facebook that my old friend Annvi would soon be launching a website for her new business. She was asking the sorts of questions I knew the answers to, so I piped up. As we conversed it became clear that the site was fully conceptualized and content-ready, but it was nowhere close to actually being built. I volunteered to put it together and in less than a week produced this: Barkin’ Doggie Biscuits. Annvi and Tobiah are great and easy to work with, and because they knew exactly what they wanted, the geographical barrier and time difference (Houston, USA to London, UK) was not really an issue.
My favorite part of the site is the Testimonials section where people can upload pictures of their own dogs eating the yummy looking biscuits. Okay, it’s kind of empty now, but it’ll grow. These dog treats will be up for sale online pretty soon. I can’t wait to get some for Jessie.
For you Life 2.0 types, BDB is active on Twitter, Facebook, and Annvi writes an entertaining dog themed blog.
