I am a huge fan of the Google Reader (I use it almost everyday), but I think that it is “too geeky” for a lot of people. To me, the new Digg looks like it could be the RSS reader for the masses.
I already use Twitter as a way to keep up on breaking news, but it really is like drinking from the fire hose. Digg on the other hand, is a great aggregator which could be the “go-to” source for personalized/social news. I have already switched it to my default homepage.
“The biggest change to come in Digg v4 is the increased emphasis on social. When you first sign in, you’ll be walked through a flow inviting you to begin following other users, both from a series of lists curated by Digg and from friends on your Facebook, Twitter, and Google accounts (which you can easily connect with).”
