The Digg mobile site is a fine piece of work, but there’s something to be said for the robust capabilities of an app customized for the capabilities of your device. Developer rmxdave recognized this and has been working on Digloo – a webOS browser for Digg. The app, which sports a unique Digg-like interface has the ability to filter by topic and by media type (news/images/video). Digloo utilizes the gesture area in some of the navigation. Not only can you digg and bury posts, you can do the same to comments on Digg. And of course, you can share these Digg stories, with text messages, emails, and even just copying relevant info to the clipboard to share in the manner of your choosing. Despite the robust appearance of the app, the developer claims there’s still plenty of work to be done. Once complete, Digloo will be available in the App Catalog in two versions, one free and one paid. The free version will be ad-supported and come with fewer features, whereas the paid Digloo will be feature-complete and ad free.
