Digg finally launched their much anticipated iPhone application yesterday; its created quite the buzz as it rose to the #1 spot in Apples app store for news. The app does a great job of presenting a simple, yet powerful interface that really gives iPhone users a fairly in-depth Digg experience. The new application came just in time before Digg relaunches their site. Early buzz about Diggs iPhone app has been very positive; most people seem to enjoy Diggs iPhone application while others insist its not that big a step forward from Diggs mobile site.

Diggs iPhone app, developed by Taptaptap, really makes expansive use of Diggs revamped API. Although you cant do everything that you would normally be able to do from Diggs site (comment, submit, browse freinds and fans), you can do most of the things having to do with the most important aspect of Digg  the content. Diggs app really does a great job of circulating the end user around the content; browsing and searching through the plethora of great content that appears on the front page is a breeze. Organization and customization are definitely two areas where Digg could make some improvements, but all in all you cant complain about Diggs offering. Diggs iPhone app is getting a lot of buzz; try it out if you can, it may just refresh the experience that youve traditionally known as Digg.com.
