- sixthplanet, on 10/20/2007, -18/+310Weird! Not even one Ron Paul story! :)
- shirosamurai, on 10/10/2007, -7/+95Ah, the good old days... No Ron Paul, no politics, just tech.
- suxmonkey, on 10/10/2007, -3/+79"The third story to be submitted and the first that Digg kept is from kevinrose and was apparently made popular 73 days before it was submitted." Awesome
- dingmah, on 10/10/2007, -2/+71Where are the [PICS]?!?!
- UtahApocalyse, on 10/10/2007, -5/+59My session hasnt expiered in 3 weeks, you might want to try something new.
- futureisours, on 10/10/2007, -4/+53Ahhh I see the Digg admins were deleting stories back then too.
- tizz66, on 10/10/2007, -2/+50You have 300 ***** sessions a day? Lucky bastard.
- PoeticExplosion, on 10/10/2007, -1/+48And Jamba Juice.
- TheKorn2, on 10/10/2007, -2/+46And no "BOTTLED WATER IS KILLING THE PLANET", "LIGHT BULBS ARE EVIL!" , or LOLCATZ stories, either!
- grooviekenn, on 10/10/2007, -2/+44"2. Creative delares 'war' against the iPod"
awww... how cute... - UPGR4Y3DD, on 10/10/2007, -4/+36Now we get iPhone posts instead of iPod.
- donotdigg, on 10/10/2007, -0/+31I was surprised that this wasn't on the list:
Duke Nuk'em - Coming This Year!!!! - diggitydoc, on 10/10/2007, -2/+33might wanna turn off that clear cookies and cache on exit option eh?
- meshman, on 10/10/2007, -22/+52Did your ***** session expire 300 times a day back then too?
- gregdigg, on 10/10/2007, -1/+30So it's called "The First 10 Stories" but they couldn't find the tenth one. Why not "The First 9 Stories"? Not David Letterman-y enough?
- kahrn, on 10/10/2007, -4/+25Ron Paul?
- minox, on 10/10/2007, -4/+24Way before digg was ruined by political nonsense.
- thatsmyaibo, on 10/10/2007, -10/+28Yeah that's when digg was good. When you could get some fun and useful info or good tech news rather than a bunch of left wing blogs.
- OBKenobi, on 10/10/2007, -7/+25No, it sucks now, it was much better back then.
- DamageInc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18"You can see the problem here - it's been merged into 2 other stories"
http://digg.com/search?s=http&submit=Search§ion=news&type=url&area=promoted&age=all&sort=old
What happened to merging submissions? - rhylan, on 10/10/2007, -2/+18Can't be that bad if your still using it
- erniecamacho, on 10/10/2007, -0/+16No stories from Albert Pacino?
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+17Amazon affiliate links? I guess Digg has always been about spam and trolls.

- nickerbocker, on 10/10/2007, -2/+13I had to look up who Ron Paul was after seeing the Ron Paul Revolution signs littered all over the city. I thought it was a band. I probably would have known who he is if I saw these stories that are supposedly all over Digg.
- capiCrimm, on 10/10/2007, -13/+24*****, technology on digg! Buried as inacurate. Rob Paul FTW!!!oneoneone!!!one
- rhylan, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11Here's the link from wayback machine showing what it looked like
http://web.archive.org/web/20041211013747/http://digg.com/ - jedikv, on 10/10/2007, -3/+12Exactly
- Elranzer, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8The comment system was better back then.
- phantom_mullet, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Hmmm...interesting. Based on the fact that username "rjmeredeth" made the only comment on the first story on Digg, check this out:
http://digg.com/users/rjmeredeth/news/commented
The story title and link are listed, but no description or link to the comments. - nathanwalker, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9I thought I remembered there being tech news here! ;-)
- projectstartrek, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8There are other important things in life?
- manbearpigm16, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Now he's just some punk kid.
- Atomic1fire, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Agreed
before the terms
**** The RIaa
and Faux news
Digg was good - admdrew, on 10/10/2007, -3/+9Buried as duplicate.
;) - dbz253, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6if you open a bunch of stories in new windows, it ***** up.
- ElbridgeGerry, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8Vote Ron Paul and get a free Jamba Juice.
- AriaStar, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Makes you wonder just how they ever got it where it is today.
- MrSketch, on 10/10/2007, -17/+22No Ron Paul or iPhone stories? Buried as inaccurate.
- fuzzmeister, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7Pretty sure that isn't possible, or else
http://digg.com/tech_news/Digg_This:_09-f9-11-02-9d-74-e3-5b-d8-41-56-c5-63-56-88-c0
would keep popping up. - turpenine, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4thats the first archived page.
- colincornaby, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6This is no surprise. The media is always trying to block the message of Ron Paul.
- manbearpigm16, on 10/10/2007, -5/+9Or "Marijuana makes you smrtor" stoners respond saying "whoa man."
- cds0528, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4no
- jhuebel, on 10/10/2007, -6/+10Anybody want to see if we can get this story back on the front page? :-)
http://digg.com/apple/Rumors:_Next_iPod_to_have_downloadable_games - nadocollin, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4It's easy enough to simply click on the technology section if you don't want anything else. Personally, I like to be kept abreast on current events, etc.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5What about this page from 2004?
"http://web.archive.org/web/20041209040106/http://digg.com/" - quomen, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Can someone show me how to get a free jamba juice.
- t3soro, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5Ron Paul is left wing?
