BigSpy (By Digg labs) is the most fun way to spy on Digg’s submissions: the font size represents the story popularity.
Other Digg labs projects include:
- Stack visualizes individual users’ votes as Tetris-like falling bricks, creating a bar graph of popular headlines that grows in real time.
- Arc is a constantly growing circle around which stories are arranged as users digg them.
- Swarm represents how individual users cluster around popular stories: when the same user votes for two stories, a tentacle reaches out and tugs those “cells” closer together.
Also Diggtop is a pretty cool desktop app that requires Adobe® AIR™ runtime. It gives a handy compact version of Digg (list of stories to the left and description to the right). You can choose to view the submission only in a few (or one) preferred categories or subcategories.
