Yesterday Digg v3 launched and the web is slowly but steady filling with
reviews. Since I don’t really want to contribute to this flood this
is not a review since I don’t spend enough time on digg.com to be really
qualified for doing this. I just noticed one thing that really annoys me:
Your session seems to store your latest action which … hard to explain, so
I’ll better simply give you an example:
I have digg open in two tabs. The first one is used for simple browsing while
I use the second one to do some searching. Let’s say I’m in the upcoming
section with the first tab. Now I find something that sounds like an old
story and go to the 2nd tab to search digg for similiar stories. When I now
want to continue browsing using the first tab, the whole output is filtered
the search terms I used in the 2nd tab.
IMO something like that should be better done with GET parameters and not using
the session :-? Reminds me somehow on how the Claroline folks did it :-(
But apart from this problem I like the update. It’s really nice that you can
now undigg stories ;)
