Digg Hires Andrei Zmievski

gravitonic.com — as Open Source Fellow. This is an exciting opportunity which will let him dedicate more time to PHP and other open source software. (and I appreciate the recursiveness of a post titled "I've been dugg" being dugg)

    Man, I wonder how it feels to actually be wanted and welcomed for the job, instead of sucking up, begging and hoping they will take you.

  • georgemason01, on 12/04/2008, -4/+9Your father. It was part of a Soviet plan to father thousands of illegitimate children in the U.S. and raise them to be internal insurrectionists against the American government, to pave the way for the re-emergence of the Soviet Empire one day.

    I didn't want to tell you like this, but your comment clearly shows you were starting to have a lot of questions.
  • hiimcliff, on 12/05/2008, -1/+6Shhh. Just google him and pretend like you know.

  • polyGone, on 12/05/2008, -1/+5{* I know right *}
  • lucasjv, on 12/04/2008, -1/+4Exactly how you write it actually (but a little bit different): Zjmevskie - It might be that I live in Europe, so Russia is less far away that I might know how to speak all that much easier.. Though I don't really know how to pronounce some things in American English. Fair enough.

    I'm just rambling, ignore this comment please.. :) :)
  • ElAmo, on 12/05/2008, -1/+4How do I report the commenter above me? He is a persistent troll...

    EDIT: two people up
