Kevin Rose and his team of developers just released Digg 3.0 and man is it cool!

My favorite new feature is something called "containers", this feature adds a whole new dynamic to the site and makes the user experience so much more intuitive.

Here's what Kevin had to say about it:

"We are launching what we call containers which are groups of topics bundled together.

"So inside of Digg, when you go to the new home page, you’ll see containers on the left-hand-side that can collapse and expand to display all the different topics that reside in the containers.

"All the existing topics we have for technology will be bundled inside the technology container, and we have other containers: science, world and business, entertainment and gaming.

"We are also launching for the first time the ability to Digg things other than news and we are launching a container for videos online.

"We want to be the clearing house for all things, Youtube, Google Video, Yahoo Video, and we'll have several topics that will fall into that videos container."

They've also added several new topics like "Entertainment", "World and Business", "Gaming" and the aforementioned "Videos", these new topics will definately appeal to a bigger, more mainstream audience and should really differentiate Digg from the likes of "Slashdot" and it's tech only news content.

Digg is social bookmarking at it's best and it looks like all the Digg wannabes have a lot of work ahead of them to catch up to this new and improved version .

I'll end with this, in the imortal words of Cyrus, leader of the Gramercy Riffs from the movie "The Warriors"; "Can you digg it suckas!?"
