Can you digg it?
Have been visiting digg.com a lot lately.
It’s a kind of news site where the stories that appear on the front page, closest to the top, are the ones with the best “digg” rating. They get their digg ratings from you, the reader. If you “digg” a story, you click on the “digg” icon. It registers your “digg” and turns the icon to “dugg” so you can’t “digg” it more than once.
The best part is that there are a lot of unusual and informative stories out there that end up on digg that you might not often see in your surfing travels. Folks see them, submit then, and then enough people “digg” them to get them noticed.
Granted, some of the stories I pick up on slashdot or Wired News first, but not all that many.
Today, I read about the discovery of a new cave in Venezuala that is so large, two helicopters can enter and land. The same article also mentioned the discovery of a new species of poisonous dart frog in the same area.
I also read about enough techno-geek stuff to feed the geek for the day too.
