Everything started somewhere. I think (could be way off here) that Reddit became popular because of some unpopular stuff Digg was doing.
Yup, that's how I ended up on reddit back in the day, when digg did some stupid shit, that I don't even remember wat was any more, but something similar to what reddit is doing now.
