Digg's Underutilized 'Bury' Feature PDF Print E-mail

Digg is a fun way to read the news, agreed. There are two things about it that really bug me though. One is that it doesn't deal with photos well, but that has been well covered.

The issue I have is with the underutilized 'Bury' button. I HATE when an inaccurate story gets to the front page as 'popular'. I hate when I read the notes and see people burying it in comments, but not up front. What people need to do is BURY inaccurate stories, not DIGG them. This seems obvious, but is also obviously beyond most DIGG users.

The thing that then needs to happen, either in DIGG LABS or elsewhere, is a 'outgoing stories' tab, or a 'un popular tab', or both. Show me what is being burred! I want to see a story that has been UNDUGG -1923 times on the 'back page.'
