The Secret Masters of Digg

Muhammad Saleem (msaleem)
Andrew Sorcini (MrBabyMan)
JD Rucker (OBoy)
Amy Vernon (AmyVernon) [Moderator]

Few subgroups online have been as rumored about, hated on, or wrangled with as the elite power users of Digg. But what’s this world actually like? Join the leading users of Digg as they discuss the often hidden culture of poweruserhood, their relationship with the site, the various intrigues that go on, the experiences in rising to the top, and the broader questions about the future of these platforms.

My quick notes during the session:

  • Sitting in 54-100 for the Digg panel with @msaleem @mrbabyman et al #roflcon
  • Almost every meme goes through #digg which is then pounded into submission
  • How are memes formed and how are they getting to a massive audience? #digg #4chan #reddit #fark social media
  • “I saw this panel on #reddit yesterday” @msaleem #digg #roflcon
  • Can’t talk about the future of #digg or they would ban our accounts!
  • The new #digg will be more open for site owners to put more stories out. Expansion but no monetization
