Digg Needs a Picture Section
Lately there have been a good deal of stories reaching the front page that are nothing but pictures (usually ones sported as funny and/or witty). How many other people think pictures deserve their own section, as not to clog up the topics for news articles. Digg this story if you agree.
Get me out of this job!!!

Digg Its Been Almost 3 Months, Can We Get A New Comment System Now?
It has almost been 3 months and the comment system still as horrendous as the day it came out on June 21st. It is buggy, slow, ugly and annoying as hell to read. It is fairly hard to fallow a conversation. Digg can do better. Digg this up if you want the comment system changed.
