Digg makes headlines with new iPhone app

Social news aggregator site Digg announced the launch of a free iPhone application enabling users to browse, comment and vote on popular stories, view news by topic and submit their own articles. Developed by TapTapTap, the app promises a "seamless browsing experience between Digg and the most popular content on the web, as chosen by the Digg community," writes Digg exec Chris Howard on the firm's blog. "We wanted to make it easy to discover interesting content on your phone and to easily jump into the conversations around that content." Howard adds that an Android version is also forthcoming.
