Digg: Internal Accounts Were for Testing; New Features on the Way

Digg responded to allegations that it created fake accounts to game its own system with a post on the Digg Blog by community manager Jen Burton, which also announced upcoming new features including filtering by images and video, suggested users, a bury button, and a breaking news module. From Burton’s post:

I’m going to address a story submitted to Digg that called out activity of a number of our internal test accounts. As with many sites, we continuously run tests on the site to expose vulnerabilities in our own security.
