Digg Digs Open Source

,----[ Quote ]
| In what is becoming the rule rather than the 
| exception, Digg is the latest social media 
| player to "come out of the closet" and not 
| only acknowledge that it is built on open 
| source components, but they have contributed 
| to and host several open source projects. Like 
| Facebook and Twitter, Digg loves open source.

Open Source segment on PBS Newshour

,----[ Quote ]
| They spend some time talking about the open 
| source model and a few FLOSS-geeks from 
| Washington, DC (maco and myself included) are 
| featured near the end of the segment. There is 
| also a nice shot of the KDE website featuring 
| KDE 4.4.

| summer of 2010, but Digg has now pulled the plug according to ClickZ.
