Friends: have you ever found yourself sitting around wondering just what the most popular Digg story of April 12, 2006 was (“Google Calendar Is Launching Tonight”)? Or perhaps you’ve found yourself curious whether the potential discovery of ice on Mars cracked the top ten Digg science stories of 2008 (it did in fact). Or maybe, just maybe, as you were idly moonwalking your way to the water cooler, it struck you to consider just what percentage of Digg’s top stories of July 25, 2009 were in some way related to Michael Jackson (40%; sorry Farrah). Well wonder no more my good people, for the key to these, and many more answers, is finally upon us. I give you: Digg 365.

Digg celebrates its five year anniversary today, and to commemorate this happy occasion, we helped them create a new addition to their Labs project. The Digg folks wanted something that would encapsulate five years of the internet’s most popular stories, allowing them to be sorted and filtered easily, all within an attractive package. So that’s just what we gave them.

Digg 365 gives users a convenient and stylish repository for all five years of Digg’s most popular stories in one place. Sorting by year, month, day or category means finding the top story from your birthday last year, the biggest entertainment news stories of 2005, or just settling a bar bet about the relative popularity of Obama vs. Megan Fox in 2009 is as easy as pie.

We were already big fans of Digg, so this was an exciting opportunity right out of the gate. The folks at Digg, however, were double awesome to work with, making the end result all the more satisfying. But don’t take my word for it, give it a spin yourself; I think you’ll find yourself deep within a hefty Digg hole in no time.
