Comment ...Let's not (Score 1) 429
I have no interest in looking at digg's comments as long as it's not threaded and not moderated. I visit the digg page from my reader to follow the link to the article and nothing more.
So I use digg for the articles and not the comments. I use slashdot for the comments and not the articles (I usually don't RTFA). slashdot's strength is the moderation of a large number of comments (only the best ones get my eyeballs), and digg's strength is the moderation of a large number of articles (only the best ones get my eyeballs).
So comparing the number of comments on each isn't really going to matter (to me). I imagine you could easily count the number of articles on each and it could be lopsided the other way. I didn't RTFA here either, but if they're comparing the "digg effect" vs the "slashdot effect" on those hosting the articles, then that sounds like a more interesting comparison.
