Digg Labs : Stack and Swarm for Deeper View of Digg



How many times have you submitted a great story to Digg and found it lost below a long queue with a few Diggs. Now you can find such cool stories by a broader and deeper view of Digg using the Digg Labs new features Stack and Swarm. These interactive visualizations from Digg labs look beneath the surface of the Digg community’s activities.

Digg Stack shows diggs occuring in real time on up to 100 stories at once. Diggers fall from above and stack up on popular stories. Brightly colored stories have more diggs. Digg Swarm draws a circle for stories as they’re dugg. Diggers swarm around stories, and make them grow. Brightly colored stories have more diggs. Both these tools have the visualization in 3 modes: all activity, popular, and newly submitted stories.

    Neat stuff. It sounded stupid when I first heard of it. But it is actually fun to use.
