Who Still Uses Digg? The Social Bookmarking Site's Days May Be Limited

By , About.com GuideApril 30, 2012

Follow me on:

There are rumors floating around that the once popular bookmarking site Digg is being acquired by the Washington Post. TechCrunch reported that the staff has been acquired, but the site itself has not.

Anthony Ha explains, "In other words, this is a talent acquisition, and in fact Digg properties, patents, and assets are still for sale."

So Digg staff will be heading over there to work on enhancing and perfecting current projects with the Washington post, but does that mean the actual Digg site will get shut down for good? It's hard to say for certain, but it definitely looks like it might happen.

So long, Digg. It was nice knowing you, but I honestly haven't used you in years.
