Digg is by far my favorite site for news aggregation. It has a very strong design compared to it’s competitor Reddit, but I’m just not a fan of its mobile site topic listing.
PROBLEM 1
The topic listing looks something like a windows mobile app. The text is way too small for iPhone users and I continuously click on the wrong category.
PROBLEM 2
Why can’t I filter by one of the three post types: news, images, or video?
I understand that we want to limit functionality in a mobile site, but these functions aren’t that complex and would provide a better user experience.
My solution…
Make the buttons bigger for iPhone users, and add in 3 checkbox button filters for the post types.
One final note.
Why isn’t Google one of the categories for Technology? We have Apple, Microsoft and Linux/Unix, but not Google. This just seems odd to me.
