Digg said today it will build an RSS reader, seizing on the opportunity presented by Google’s announcement yesterday that it will shut down its Reader.

“We’ve heard people say that RSS is a thing of the past, and perhaps in its current incarnation it is, but as daily (hourly) users of Google Reader, we’re convinced that it’s a product worth saving. So we’re going to give it our best shot,” wrote CEO Andrew McLaughlin on the company’s blog.
