- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Thank god Digg doesn't let people post comments as fast as they're doing in the chat.
- noelsusman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Edit bug ftw....
it's not him....it's just some retard trying to be cool - crawf061, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8very cool idea... definitely needs to be refined... I was really surprised at the number of 10 year olds that check digg!
- rimco, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7This is actually really neat... the window can be docked, and it's very functional. I'm impressed!
- manatee, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Full of a bunch of zit faced 13year olds...no digg, sucks, slows down digg. Bye.
- dietprozac, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7this is brilliant! Look at what amazing insights people have to offer in real-time chat! Here are a few sparkling bits of wisdom from the past five seconds:
gabber592: Kevin Rose is Gay!Kevin Rose is Gay!Kevin Rose is Gay!Kevin Rose is Gay!Kevin Rose is Gay!Kevin Rose is Gay!Kevin Rose is Gay!Kevin Rose is Gay!
Mongoose: anything but spam here?

Not allot of people in there now tho, should be interesting to watch what happens if this story hits Frontpage - hackerdude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4It's amazing how many people spam this thing just because it on the front page of Digg. WTF
- noelsusman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4This is pretty cool. Not many people on right now. KevinRose is on but I don't know if it is really him.....oh well.
- spindrift, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Wow it's lame in there. As someone just said, someone at Gabbly is gonna wake up and crap their pants.
- DisposableRob, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Yeeash, at this point it's pretty useless.
- FelixWankel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Yes, this thing is getting fscking hammered... gabbly is old news, but last I knew it didn't have the nifty sidebar functionality.
I would actually consider using this if there weren't so many people posting BS every second. - Spazkake, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2cool but it'll get dugg to hell
- estvir, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2this has been on the frontpage quite a few times, but hey, digg it all you want, everyone will be over it in a few hours when the next cool thing is posted. ;)
- daeyeth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2not of it gets dugg it wont
- blitzboy07, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2There's too many people on Digg for the chat to actualy work. The text goes by super fast.
- samuraitux, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3didn't digg had an unofficial IRC channel?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Good idea, but needs a "kick" option to boot spammers. It would be nice if you were able to chat with people in the digg category you're looking at. Maybe a dedicated digg IRC would be better.
- Skab, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2wow it's like aol but in firefox. undigg/thisislame/bury
- reldren, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2004/03/19
- tehdvd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2wow does digg really consist of a bunch of immature kids?
- Badaudio, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2its all spam thats why
- Petrarch1603, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2there are a million people chatting, dugg to death!
- Napalm05, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Cool idea but with 80 some people spamming in the chat it isn't very usable.
- dougmwpsu, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2what's the point of flooding it with spam?
silly diggers - Guder, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Way too much spam... would not work.
- interiot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Just join ##digg... at least someone can kick the obnoxious people then.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The same person has been spamming the chat window for the past 10 minutes. Jeez... the time that some people have.
- Dujoducom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Yeah, I'd love to see one actually tied to your digg user name so that people actually had an incentive not to spam. I'd also like to see per-article chats.
- chriswm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Actually this concept has been around since the days of the Virtual Places chat client, which was first released circa 1995. A modern version of the system has quite a respectable community at http://www.vpchat.com Still, Gabbler is pretty cool!
- daeyeth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1haha sweet penny acarde comic. perfectly suitable
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Give it an hour. It'll die down, for sure.
- Farmer77, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Maybe back in the late 90's chat rooms were usable, but not anymore.
- alexj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this is pretty damn cool..except for the fact that every other line is "I ANALLY RAPED KEVIN ROSE" and it slows digg down to a stand still...other than that its awesome
- Choler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That felt like a yahoo chatroom +10000 porn bots.
- zcreem, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is a prime example of where the original Ajax is better, to clean all the crap of the screen, SPAMed to death.
- negativeview, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Obviously the demo link is unusable to a large degree. There are a few changes that could make this much easier to use for future reference, if the gabbler people come looking at the comments of digg.
1) A pause button that would pause the chat window and not receive any updates. This seems useless right now, but it's meant to be used in combination with the second.
2) Block people by clicking on their in-chat-window name, instead of (or in addition to) their name in the list of people.
3) SORT the list of people, geebus!
I'm sure that the spamming problem is much less of a problem on other sites and at other times. - fatcat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1digg needs an official IRC channel
maybe Irc.efnet.org/#digg - Stiffler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Just one big spamfest....
- evan410, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1We are having a good convo over at the google gabbly. Come over if you are not one of the spammers
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Did anyone notice Leo Laporte spamming...I'll let him slide.
- wafflesomd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Great idea, cept its a spam fest.
- DarkDays, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1...A spam filter would be a winner here
- AutoSciz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Pointless. Of all ways to do something like this...this is the worst.
- Lasse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I spend more time blocking people than chatting
- tastethevenom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Neat, but they're proxying Digg whilst this story is on the Front Page. GOOD ***** LUCK.
Also, it users frames. Shame. - bakababy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0its pretty cool but unusable
- Hydraulix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0http://pastebin.ca/73763
[sarcasm]
Just a quick snapshot of what your missing out on.
Come join the fun everyone!!!!
[/sarcasm] - Adriano, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Neat idea but there's way to many people spamming. It's virtually impossible to have a basic conversation.
- ThndrShk2k, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Ok app, might have uses for smaller websites. But people on larger websites like to troll.
