Digg Just Might Bury Slashdot

Digg Just Might Bury Slashdot
Reading this story on Wired, reminds me of the difference between Google News and Yahoo News. The story talks about how Slashdot is human editor driven whereas Digg is community driven. Obviously, community is more scalable, viz. can capture more stories and is more responsive to events. Compare this with the fact that Google News is machine driven and Yahoo News is again human editor driven. The pace with which Google News tracks news vs. Yahoo News is for everyone to see.
