Others, like me, want to find out the inner workings of this seemingly arbitrary but in fact quite complex system. Back in the early days, the only way to find out how Digg works was to observe. Luckily, today Digg ?analysts? have a large number of tools at their disposal; not flashy games or fun visuals, but actual tools that use Digg?s API to extract meaningful information, extrapolate statistical data out of it and present all of it in a useful way. Without further ado, here are 5 tools that everyone who wants to find out the nuts and bolts of Digg should have bookmarked.
