Search giant Google is close to acquiring US-based social news aggregator Digg for around US$200 million, according to a report on US technology blog TechCrunch.
Search giant Google has ended negotiations to buy social news site Digg, according to US-based technology blog TechCrunch.
It was a whirlwind Tuesday for the social news site Digg, complete with a cease-and-desist letter, a mutinous user base and speculation that it might get sucked into a legal battle.
Britney Spears has become the latest celebrity to open an account on the Twitter micro-blogging service, although it remains unlikely the pop icon is the one updating her profile.
Barack Obama has just overtaken Digg founder Kevin Rose's spot as the most followed person on Twitter, according to Twitterholic.
