What is Digg?14 Comments
- Locuester, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7When I finish my app at night, someone sometimes submits it to digg, and gives me the link. I then put it on my blog. There is no multi-accounting or digg gaming for sure. I just have a good number of fans right now that all congregate around 8pm-2am EDT everynight.
As you'll notice, I never even submit it to digg myself and it doesn't get sumbitted everynight! When it is submitted, yes, I digg it. And I put it on my blog. Is something wrong with that?!
LifeHacker featured my apps TWICE on their front page in the last 10 days as "download of the day" - am I "gaming" that site too? In addition, I was a special guest on Hak.5's pod cast coming out on Thursday - again, did I "game" that?
If people vote me to front page everyday, so be it. If you don't like it - bury it! This story was buried, as were at least 5 others for my site in the last 3 weeks. - Pests, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Come join the chat room.
You will probably see alot of the first diggers (including myself) in the chat.
How are we multi-accounting? - johnnythawte, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6This has some interesting implications for user interface testing and design.
I'm thinking of trying this out in our QA department at work to see where the users focus their mouse the most during testing. - MikeCampo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Yet another plug for this dude's site...He's made some cool stuff in the past 18 days, but seriously, do we need a story for every single day?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Nice work.
- atomicSpatule, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Not using .NET would make the app much larger and difficult to code, therefore there would be no way to code it in only a night
- demortes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1These diggs are not plugs for this guys blog or anything, these are neat little apps we find, well, neat. They can be usefull, or all around fun. Why do you have to ruin the Digg community by complaining? It's always the same old people complaining.
Before you accuse anyone, I suggest you have more evidence than "They submitted and dugg the same stories". Like IP addies... - benplaut, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1lots of clicks on the start button, for yall windows users :)
- Locuester, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2sweet idea. I just can't wait to see what it looks like after a week of running at the office. I'm sure trends will show.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0wow nice app watever u say about anappaday
- WarMace, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Running it now, im sure after a whole day itll show me something usefull.
- osbjmg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1With the heat map, the data gets "cold" so you may want to check it out every hour or something to get the gist of it.
- Xilon, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1I could see how this could be useful but still does it really need .NET? jeez, talk about overkill.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -10/+3It's funny. I don't remember seeing "anappaday" on digg before. Now I've seen three stories in the last two days. So I went and snooped the "who dugg this" for each story. Low and behold, the same first diggers for each one. And all those diggers have random stories stuffed around diggs for anappaday stories.
Getting your friends to digg your stories is one thing, multi accounting and digg gaming is another (much lamer) thing.
