Digg modifies algorithm

Digg has so far been getting low on quality because too many stories were submitted, and more importantly useless ones were also been dugg, so that even mediocre stories started to appear on the main page.

Now, to improve quality, Digg.com has come up with a new algorithm wherein different categories of stories need different number of diggs to reach the top.While categories like Technology now need upwards of 60 from the original 20-40 to make to the top, lesser popular ones like Sports still need lesser diggs to make it to the front page.
