Files

Diggit Magazine is not about producing hypes and breaking news. Digging deeper, explaining and understanding why something is hyped, that is what Diggit Magazine is all about. Next to articles, columns, wiki entries, interviews, reviews and videos, also wants to group knowledge and build files around topics like digital media and politics, online dating, linguistic landscapes, digital culture, globalization, art, digital media, identity, feminism, migration, superdiversity and many more.
