I am working on a site which try to solve many of the problems with digg.com.
You can find it on http://crowdnews.eu.

The main problem with digg is the voting system.
When only top voted stories get on the front page it has
to be a subject that many can relate to,
which result in stories with a low information content.

http://crowdnews.eu solves this by using sharing instead of voting.
Every have a personal news page on which they can subscribe to other users and when those users share stories they will appear on the personal news page.

I woke up this morning to find out Digg had unreasonably blocked me. When I tried login in to my account I got this unexpected message: digg hates you.

I've never liked Digg.. In fact, I started a website to point out the truth in a funny, yet informative and coherent manner:

Check out Stirrdup. I like it a lot better than Digg. All the points are gained through things like people actually reading the stories and posting comments. Seems more blog focused as well.
