After reading Max Chafkin’s article, Kevin Rose of Digg: The Most Famous Man on the Internet at Inc.
I could see why Digg is popular. It allows the user to get feedback from other users rather than shuffling blind through all the interesting things out there. But what I found amazing was the video clip they did during the shoot.
I love the concept of the using social media to get volunteers to play the part of the mob that is chasing Rose. It is a win-win situation because those are people, who stumbled upon the Facebook page the photo editor, Travis Ruse, set up and plan to be there were people, who love Digg and DiggNation. The fans were able to meet Rose and the photographers did not have to pay actors to play such small part.
