Mountain View, CA – In a recent interview with TechNetDaily.NL, Digg CEO Matt Williams discussed how he believes he has helped engineer the resurrection of the once prominent link sharing site. “When I got here we were really struggling to get our traffic back, sites like Reddit somehow managed to steal our users, but after this weeks watershed moment I think we’re back.” The watershed moment Williams was referring to was when a link sponsored by howstufworks.com apparently broke the 1,000 diggs mark, it was the first link to break the mark in over 9 months and currently the only link on the site with more than 12 diggs.
