Google Chrome OS unveiled, released to open source community

Digg is a social networking and news site that allows users to submit links or news for other users to rate and comment on. News and links are rated on a system of diggs: if a reader likes a story, they can digg it, which adds one digg to the story's total. Stories with a fair amount of diggs appear on the front page listing, but any story that has been submitted can be found through the built-in search engine or category listing.

An interesting effect of digg, which has been since been attributed to other social bookmarking and news sites like Fark, is the "Digg effect", where a site who gets a link on the front page of digg sees a sharp upswing in traffic, possibly even crashing the website.
