    • Slashdot Founder Questions Crowds Wisdom

      Posted by Jeff from Bits.blogs.nytimes

      “I try not to paint Digg as my arch-nemesis. The Digg method and Digg community are a wider audience than Slashdot,” he said. “But with sites like Digg, it’s the wisdom of the crowds or the tyranny of the mob. You never know what you’re going to get.”

    • Slashdot Firehose (or Digg vs Slashdot.org round 2) --Stewtopia

      Posted by Jeff

      I got invited to Slashdot Firehose tonight as well. The UI is clunky and confusing and is very Digg-like, complete with thumbs up and thumbs down. I agree with Stew...Alexa data indicates Slashdot still in decline. Personally, I find myself drawn back to /. content because of the quality editorial and turned off by Digg. That's my 2 cents.
