Power Diggers react to Digg’s launch of Diggable ads
About a month ago Digg announced that it would eventually launch ads into its news stream that users could Digg or bury. The new system would theoretically push advertisers to tailor their ads more to the Digg audience, which would effectively increase the efficacy for all parties. So after speaking to a Digg representative, I reached out to several of the site’s power users for a PBS article on whether the community would really accept this kind of advertising.
I would bury most of the ads. Simply because ads in general have become so annoying these days.
