美国纽约时间1月5日，据《纽约时报》引用位于旧金山的美国科技网站Digg.com某位未曾透露姓名的高管人员消息称，目前Digg.com的Series B轮融资已经全部到位。考虑到规模运作这一模式、同时对国际化产生兴趣，因此Digg.com 对正在和包括新闻集团在内几家公司商讨收购的事宜仍然有浓厚兴趣。
此前曾经传出的消息曾表明在上一轮与包括新闻集团在内几家公司商讨收购时，Digg声称自己每月的唯一访问量与市场调查公司Comscore提供的数据大相径庭一事，属于Digg.com吸引关注的手法。在美国，Comscore公司的调查数据取样点通常受到质疑，而且这些数字仅仅是来自于美国家庭用户，Comscore对于Digg的流量数据统计并不具有代表性。
在B轮融资到位的情况下，这位Digg.com未曾透露姓名的高管人员表示Digg.com开始对亚洲一些同等模式的网站密切关注，在Google以16.5亿美元股票交换的方式收购视频娱乐网站YouTube后，获得更大用户规模成为各类新兴社会网络网站关注的重点。
这位Digg.com高管人员声称Digg.com对亚洲、尤其是中国大陆地区，网络用户规模增长令人惊讶的幅度一直非常重视。他表示在近期将对中国大陆地区目前的digg类网站尝试采取合作方式，同时不排除通过投资的方式将其中一些代表性的网站纳入旗下，中国大现有约40多家DIGG网站，其中比较成形的是：
http://www.diglog.com/
http://www.banerzhuan.com/
http://www.cndig.com/
http://www.mywowo.com
Digg已经开始初步的接触，并已经就某几个网站以双方感兴趣的方式进行了探讨。同时Digg.com也不排除与中国几大门户合作的可能。
同时这位高管也表示，考虑到中国的特殊情况，Digg.com在中国的合作方向还是基于科技类主题方向，“在中国大陆的Digg是具有一定风险的，但我们希望与中国官方建立良好的合作关系，这是一种尝试”，据透露他们已经与中国信息产业部进行相关的接洽，以获得更好的政策环境。
分析家认为，希望重现或超越“Google收购视频娱乐网站YouTube”将是Digg.com目前的真实想法，但要做到这一点，Digg.com的用户规模还远未达到可以向新闻集团、Yahoo等公司叫价的水平，因此快速国际化和收购同类型网站是Digg.com目前获得Series B轮融资后的重点步骤之一。
补充：
Digg做为一种新的Web2.0模式的代表，也越来越被中国大陆的互联网企业重视。新浪网（NASDAQ：SINA）继完成对博客、播客的介入，并取得巨大成功后，也在进行Digg的设计与开发；同时据新浪内部人士消息，其重要的竞争对手之一Qihoo.com也在去年中开始了Digg模式的内容整合，Qihoo总裁周鸿袆也曾表示：我们会用一切Web2.0的手段来武装Qihoo的用户社区。
Digg.com会不会成为Myspace、Youtube、Facebool后新的一个互联网奇迹，让我们拭目以待。

Digg is Marching into Chinese Market
January 5,2007(NYT); According to "the New York Times", an unnamed high manager of Digg.com, which is a famous web2.0 website located in San Francisco, said that the Series B financing has been successfully closed. Interested in global market and scalable operation, Digg,com is still contacting with several companies including American News Groups(ANG) on the acquisition issue.
On the last round negotiation with potential buyers, Digg.com claimed that the monthly web traffic data was widely divergent from market research company Comscore, which was approved to be business hype. In US, the sampling method of Comscore is quite doubtable, and the figures are only from family user, which made the traffic statistics of Digg.com by Comscore unilateral.
After the completion of second round funding, Digg.com started to pay close attention to some Asian websites with similar business model. Inspired by Google's 1.65 billion acquisition of YouTube, the newly emerging SNS websites are striving to attract more users.
The above manager also claimed that Digg.com was quite surprised by the speedy increment of Internet users in Asia, especially in China Mainland. He disclosed that Digg.com would cooperate with some dig-type websites very soon, including directly buying some leading websites such as
www.diglog.com ,
www.banerzhuan.com,
www.cndig.com and
www.voote.com. Meanwhile, Digg.com did not eliminate the possibility of cooperating with big Chinese portals.
Considering the economic and political environments of China, Digg.com would like to cooperate with other websites based on high-tech aspect." Entering China market is a bit risky, but we expect establish healthy cooperation relationship with China government, this is worth trying", the mentioned manager said.Digg.com has started to contact with MII to get more favorable policy treatment.
According to analysts, Digg.com is hoping to repeat the story of Google and YouTube But now the user amount of Digg.com is cumbering the bidding ability to potential buyers like ANG and Yahoo. It is no doubt that going global and acquisition the same type websites to quickly increase user amount will be urgent task of Digg.com.
