  • jmpeagle, on 03/28/2008, -2/+5what gave it away? The first commentor having the same ID as the website URL and not being the submitter?

    maybe it was the sybmitted stories of the 2nd commentor http://digg.com/users/lanne/history/submissions ?
    etc....
  • dcmusicfusion, on 03/31/2008, -0/+3Rock on! The first version was sooo interesting....

  • Diderotten, on 03/29/2008, -1/+3I don't get it. Are the ones in the book talking about conversation, or just engaging in random conversation? It's just so vague. If I wanted talk, theres millions of other places I could get it.
  • wazaroff, on 03/29/2008, -0/+2The bum rush is working!
  • CharlesSaint, on 03/29/2008, -1/+3I can do the bum part, but I'm not sure about the rush part.

  • thedlab, on 03/28/2008, -2/+2Ask not what the community can do for you, but what you can do for the community. Get yourself the seminal work on conversation. Not the smalltalk type, but the real one. The one that makes go out and spread the ideas on this phenomenal book.
  • ScienceDoc, on 03/29/2008, -3/+3How is this not spam? Looks like Sean Hannity comments.

  • davidwasman, on 03/29/2008, -3/+3Who the hell is digging this? Supporting a cause is one thing, but this is so obviously spam I am surprised FireFox didn't block it.
  • Sucka27, on 03/29/2008, -2/+2WTF is this *****?
  • FreshPeel, on 03/29/2008, -1/+1It's a collaborative marketing book written by 103 bloggers. It's about having a conversation with the consumer instead of sending one-way "Old Marketing" messages to the consumer.
  • ittybiz, on 03/28/2008, -3/+3I love bum rushes, and not just because of the name, which you must admit is pretty cool. The perfect way to stick it to the man and help out an awesome cause, all at the same time. Great stuff.
  • LindaPicks, on 03/29/2008, -2/+2I'm in! If you think this is spam, you have no understanding of the widespread support behind this rush.

  • Prototek, on 03/29/2008, -3/+2"I’m calling for a “bum rush” all of the social media you can get your hands on, ultimately directing people to Amazon to buy the book."
