Most irritating feature in digg’s comment system

posted on June 25th, 2007


We all know that digg has changed the comment system and we all know that it’s quite bad, though there’s still something most people didn’t notice yet… If you make a comment and link to a site, make sure you don’t place any special character after the url like , : ) or .

Digg will include that character in he url and when someone clicks it the webbrowser will say that the site doesn’t exist!

Please change that digg!

    Actually, the most annoying thing about the comments, is when people spam someone else’s stories with their own. Just sayin’.
