Digg announced an update today that puts viral videos front and center on the site’s home page.

“We’ve gone live with improvements to our home page that allow you to see both news and videos on a single page,” said Digg’s¬†Daniel Burka. ¬†”We‚Äôve gotten a lot of feedback that the videos are entertaining but people miss them because they‚Äôre isolated.”

“Bringing them back into the stream on the homepage will hopefully bring more life to videos on the site. If you prefer just news or only videos, you can easily customize your view by setting either as your default home page (login and choose ‚ÄòCustomize‚Äô),” adds Burka.

The changes should make it much easier for Digg users to find viral videos, and could also bring the “Digg effect” to more vlogs and video podcasts than ever before.
