Did Reddit get massive because of Digg users making a beeline towards them or were they already big before that?

    It doesn’t help that the thread URLs are some old school “post/4268567”.

    I also noticed that the markdown format is included (e.g. the hashmarks for headings, asterisks for bold/italics) in search results while every other site doesn’t look like that.
