Digg’s Category Selection Sucks

Anytime I actually “Digg” something I never know which Category to post  it into. Honestly now, what are they thinking leaving out major pieces of each category… How am I supposed to place this post in the “Most Appropriate Topic”? What would you classify this post?

Here are my suggestions:

Under Technology: Where’s Google? Blog News? Software — how about Web Applications?

Videos: How about Personal Vlogs? International? Dance

Sports: what’s the difference between Extreme and Other Sports? Underwater Basket Weaving is definitely extreme!

First Digg Categories

And of course, if it’s not Space, Environment or Health, it obviously fits into General Sciences…

Entertainment could definitely use an “Industry News” button

Finally, Gaming, I love you Gaming!!!
