Betaworks to rebuild Digg from scratch in six weeks

Rethink Digg is an initiative to resurrect recently-dead Digg, a very popular website to find out latest and hottest stories on the Internet.

Rethink Digg, lead by a New York-based team of engineers, designers and editors, says

...we are taking over Digg and turning it back into a startup. What they didn’t mention is that we’re rebuilding it from scratch. In six weeks.

This is also the team responsible for News.me. Developing and maintaining largely-scalable and popular websites, apps requires a lot of effort and this team is perfect for the job, creating a re-though, better version of Digg in six weeks.

Help them by filling out the first user survey hosted at http://rethinkdigg.com/survey. Collected information will be used to roll out a better Digg on August 1, 2012.
