What is Digg?211 Comments
- inactive, on 09/07/2008, -9/+545Yeah, see the thing is... When advertisements have to reload each time you 'turn the page', and are generally twice the file size as the actual content you're trying to absorb, it gets a little frustrating. Having really short pages with lots of ads and little content is a common, ***** tactic to make money off a site in my opinion.
- kalleanka, on 09/08/2008, -11/+331So you submitted a picture of a digg submission where the only funny part was two comments?
And THIS made the front page?
holy *****... just saying... - BoneStamp, on 09/08/2008, -7/+294Man, you're really gonna hate the internet.
- MidnightRIder77, on 09/07/2008, -5/+182The difference between books and websites is that an entire book on one page would require you to carry around scrolls. Also I don't have to load pages of a book.
Still laughed though. - shaherazad, on 09/08/2008, -1/+163I thought this was going to be for some firefox add-on that stitches the pages together.
Oh well. - mrm3x1can, on 09/08/2008, -6/+153well your gonna hate posters...
- colonelcupcake, on 09/08/2008, -4/+138Wait.. there was only one page? Lame
- weaselfingers, on 09/08/2008, -5/+104THERE ARE ADS ON THE INTERNET?? =O
- ModernChem, on 09/07/2008, -9/+98I don't appreciate the sarcasm.
/sarcasm - DRT23, on 09/08/2008, -6/+86***** FORBES!
- JasonMaloney101, on 09/08/2008, -1/+76My gonna hate posters?
- Foliot, on 09/07/2008, -7/+82It totally didn't occur to me that people might think this submission is about 5 page articles, and to avoid the one in the picture. I meant to showcase the funny comment, that's all.
- nubnub, on 09/08/2008, -2/+68book pages don't have to load
- OfNumbers, on 09/08/2008, -1/+56Holy ***** is right. I've seen some rib cracking comments here, and this one gets attention?
- Cenobite, on 09/08/2008, -0/+53Man, you're really gonna love books.
- exonyte, on 09/08/2008, -1/+53Man, you're really gonna hate digg.
- ElBeh, on 09/08/2008, -0/+42I think it already is.
...
Man, you're gonna hate this new meme. - Victorface, on 09/08/2008, -3/+36Is this going to be a new meme?
- dvsbastard, on 09/08/2008, -0/+29Book page real estate is also not wasted with lots of pointless flashing ads...
- MrFluffZ, on 09/08/2008, -2/+30That's 2 words...
- PrinceMissile, on 09/08/2008, -8/+35You guys see ads? Wow, it must suck to not know how to use the internet.
- choosersu, on 09/08/2008, -7/+33Man, you must use IE 6. Ad block?
- ghostrc, on 09/08/2008, -2/+28Do books have ads on every page
- BTraina, on 09/08/2008, -0/+26my mind=blown
/equation - xxpor, on 09/08/2008, -0/+25adblock+
- StuartGibson, on 06/14/2009, -1/+24Scrolls are the new Kindle. Mark my words.
- woodyinthehoody, on 09/08/2008, -3/+26are we really going to re-post all of Digg's funny comments, and are they really going to get on the goddamn front page?
- DephexTwin, on 09/08/2008, -1/+19If I had to wait 5-10 seconds (and sometimes longer) between each page of a book, then books would piss me off too.
- brad016, on 09/08/2008, -5/+23Ya, once my teacher was like..."read this book!". And I was all..."7 pages biznach are ya kitten' me!"
Ya good times in 1st Grade - loqqq, on 09/08/2008, -3/+20That's only 1.8 "Gaming Moments" per page.
- inactive, on 09/08/2008, -7/+21How about all the wars and suffering throughout human history?
- random12345, on 11/16/2008, -12/+26Why did this make front page? Kevin... digg-admins... SOMEONE IMPORTANT... if you're reading this... you REALLY need to come up with a way to filter out these crappy inside-digg jokes from hitting front page. I use to use digg as a decent social news site, and now its awful with this garbage hitting front page.
- inactive, on 09/08/2008, -6/+18hell yes.
- ligyron, on 09/08/2008, -1/+12I'm confused. A comment posted on digg was resubmitted to digg as a picture and has made front page. Did we just divide by zero?
- Numbers_of_pi, on 09/08/2008, -0/+11OH SHI-
- stateofmind, on 09/08/2008, -0/+11_Exactly_ what I was thinking. It might be possible to create one though... hmmm.. will have to fiddle around and see what that would take.
- mozert, on 09/08/2008, -0/+11I have no problem carrying "It takes a village" on toilet paper.
- OfNumbers, on 09/08/2008, -4/+15You just described the frontpage of Digg.

Link here - heyblue, on 09/08/2008, -0/+10the unfunny ones, too.

- BoneStamp, on 09/08/2008, -1/+10Where do you draw the line... I mean, obviously the user is getting "free" content... but they're paying for that with their time. To a certain degree, that's reasonable... the user is expecting ads, but they're also expecting a reasonably easy to use website/article. How much extra time (due to page turns/ad loads) is the content worth? I don't know, but that's what is playing out in the dynamic of multi-page articles.
- YoThisBAlec, on 09/08/2008, -0/+9Magazines do, nowadays.
- Langford, on 09/08/2008, -2/+10Books have a lot of pages, but they have amazingly fast load times and very few ads.
- ElBeh, on 09/08/2008, -0/+8Shush, don't give them ideas. I don't want Google ads in the margins of my book in ten years.
- studdenfadden, on 09/08/2008, -0/+8There already is one, its called repagenation.
- inactive, on 09/08/2008, -3/+11dugg for Randy Marsh
