A blogger looked closer to 2 stories on Digg today and find out weird things about how they got their ways to the frontpage today. Both link to alistapart.com I couldn't post a direct link to the page because the URL included the forbidden word "digg" I tried submitting the link to Digg and my account was disabled. http://diggabused.googlepages.com/submitted.png was the article. You can't find it anymore there. And then: http://diggabused.googlepages.com/disabled.png

I contacted them and they said i abused my digg account my accusing a digg user of abusing digg.
I had to agree not to do it again so they enable my account.
They still didn't respond.

http://digg.com/technology/Digg_Corrupted is still alive but is "burried" : http://digg.com/search?search=digg&submit=Search&area=all&type=both&ag
e=60&search-buried=on
although right now it has 62 diggs.
Anything against digg or "its users" gets burried?

Forget digg. I saw this shit unfolding, and as of today, I'm switched to shoutwire.

I've brought friends.

Vive la shoutwire!

Kevin Rose responded in his blog to forevergeek : http://diggtheblog.blogspot.com/2006/04/digging-fraud.html

Well that doesn't justify how i was banned in 2 mins after posting the article about the website. Besides, the abuse@digg.com team didn't tell me "the link was being submitted too much" , they said "u accused Digg users, which is not allowed" ...

Here's an analysis of the digging of these people.

http://www.zippitydoodahonline.com/?p=10

Kevin Rose dugg more than 50% of these stories that made the front page, within the first 24 diggs. 50% of these stories with a digg at all, sure, I could believe, because he's the creator, but in the top 24 of this many? No way... I hate digg now, and it used to make me so happy =(

the4thwallOn Iran, From an American Iranian
I have an Iranian background, so throughout my life I've been bombarded with opinions on the country. Not only that, both my parents were involved in the late 70's revolution, and saw youth that helped Khomeini get to power being shot down by Khomeini's followers afterwards. That's the problem with revolutions, sometimes a power vacuum can destroy what could be a beautifull transformation. On top of that, I have dual citizen ship, and voted in the last election, whi...

KhramHappy Canada Day!
Today is the day the greatest nation that ever existed on Earth began 142 years ago. Canadians have much to be proud of. However, even the greatest nation on Earth still has its problems.The Russians threaten our airspace with their shitty planes and violate our sovereign waters with their submarines up in the Arctic. We should be shooting their planes down and sinking their subs as they cross our borders without warning. None of our politicians have the balls to at...
