Netscape Says "Digg v3 Disappoints" and so do I So one of my most beloved sites for a face lift, a nip, a tuck, some botox and a little category augmentation... like most people who just came out of such comprehensive surgery, I have to admit that the site actually looks worse than before.

Nevertheless, we will have to wait and see how it develops from here on in, as that will say a lot more about the success of the surgery, rather than the initial look. Cause so far, I feel that have managed to add a considerable amount of clutter rather than clarity. Actually, the change is what I would imagine would happen to the Apple site if Microsoft got their hands on it.

So far, I have not had too much time that to notice the superficial changes and one or two internal ones, but over all I remain unimpressed. One MAJOR concern that I do have, is the removal of the feature that lets you edit your comments... it was really handy, why was it removed? Why oh why?

SIDENOTE: As for Netscape, I find it truly ironic that they will now 'leverage their client base' to out-digg Digg. Today the masses know that IE is the only browser, tomorrow they will know that Netscape is the only site of its kind. Irrelevant, I know - but you have to admit that the irony is too good to ignore.
