Google Phonebook... did anyone else think they were talking about accessing google's internal phonebook?I had visions of called up Sergey Brin: "Yeah, Sergey? Listen, I figured if anyone around here knew where to get some tang, it would be you..."
My most used feature. However, You don't have to type any phonebook prefix or goto a phonebook url for Google. Try this in regular www.google.com:Pep Boys El Cerrito, CAit will return a small map + the addr & phone number as the first result. I use this for *everything*. If I ever need a phone number or addr I just type it in the regular google search and all of it's goodness is returned :P
God, stop posting links to useless blogs that just link to the real article! We seriously need a "Bury this story option" that lets you submit the actual link, and if enough people submit it it replaces the original.
Serious question, out of curiousity - how do people comment on the wrong article in Digg? I see this happen all the time, and I don't understand the mechanics of it. The way I read things, at least, doing such a thing would be physically impossible, so I'm curious as to how this happens at all...

You can blame the browser for that one. Firefox's tabs (more than one page open at once) tend to confuse digg, among other things.

I bet they are getting hammered with prank skype calls. I just did a few myself.
