Digg revival aims to bring ‘good vibes,’ but how will it monetize?

The news: Digg is making a comeback nearly 13 years after it was first sold in a deal backed by founder Kevin Rose and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian.

  • The revival, which will be led by CEO Justin Mezzell, is an attempt to bring “good vibes” back to the internet, per Rose.
  • While the platform officially launched yesterday, invitations will roll out in the coming weeks, with a specific focus on mobile users.
