Most the frustration from the inability of a loner to get a story to the front page is quickly loss when you realize how unimportant it is.

Top diggers would still just send their friends the link to their stories to digg. You don't need a name on it when you tell everyone "Hey I submitted this story, digg it and I will digg your s**t"

No. He is an attention whore.

Nope. I think Kevin Rose is a douche. I laugh at all the people who worship the ground he walks on and have nerdgasms at the thought of meeting him. I think there are much better people to pick as heroes. I usually get dugg into oblivion if I mention anything negative about Kevin or laugh at the people who want to bear his children but oh well.

Hee hee, Kevin as web start-up poster boy. That's like Jessie Jackson poster boy for the african race.

Most things were better before they got popular. As Vonnegut said: so it goes.Joined in the summer of 05 after just being a lurker to submit a story. 200+ diggs was a lot.
