The curation site is attempting to redefine Internet comments through Digg Dialog, which will host chats in the style of Reddit AMAs.
Social news site Digg is working on an ambitious project: rebuilding the comments section that lives below articles, so that journalists and readers can communicate with each other without the spam and vitriol that dominates many commenting platforms on the web. Dubbed “Digg Dialog,” the new product debuts on Friday and will feature Paul Ford, the author of Businessweek‘s must-read coding issue, discussing an upcoming piece on Wikipedia for the rebooted New Republic.
