Confirming rumors first reported in March, AOL relaunched Netscape.com on Thursday as a user driven news site much like the popular Digg.com. Headed by Jason Calcanis, the new Netscape aims to build on social networking concepts first brought to bear by both Digg and Del.icio.us.

For the next two weeks, access to the beta site will be made available through a link from the current portal site. Starting July 1, the beta site will replace it, an AOL spokesperson told BetaNews. While the site may look a lot like Digg, the company is quick to point out its differences.
