Digg Delivers Automatically Curated News Content with New Newsrooms

Posted

News aggregation site Digg unveiled Newsrooms today, a new section of the site that features automatically curated news content on specific topics like technology or politics.

Here’s how it works: Digg takes content from a number of sites it curates, such as tech news blogs and news sites, and adds it directly to the “Newswire” in each Newsroom. Digg ranks those stories by how new they are and how much of a “signal” they have — which is a hodgepodge metric derived from the number of times readers have Tweeted the story and shared it on other sites.
