Report: Digg Chief Revenue Officer Departs [kara.allthingsd.com]
Chas Edwards (pictured here), the publisher and chief revenue officer for Digg, the social news discovery service, is leaving the San Francisco company, according to sources.

The exec, who came to Digg in May of 2009 from Federated Media, will move to a start-up called Pixazza, a photo tagging site for advertising, “by enabling consumers to simply mouse over images to learn more and see related products.”

Being Chief Revenue Officer at Digg would be a formidable challenge! The combination of declining traffic and being tough to monetize under any circumstance is a killer.
