- EmitStop, on 03/17/2008, -7/+86Everyday Digg becomes a little bit more like 4chan...
- TheTaoOfBill, on 03/17/2008, -3/+80Anything for Leo. Man I miss Tech TV.
- ross., on 03/17/2008, -0/+73We can't do it captain. We don't..have..the power!
- Evolutuon, on 03/17/2008, -2/+63I miss TechTv. Stupid G4.
- laaabaseball, on 03/17/2008, -4/+49The official equation of the tech world: Digg + Leo = broken
- omnithought, on 03/17/2008, -1/+36Don't digg im down, folks, educate him! More people should know of the goodness that was TechTV (before MTV...erm G4 took over)
- mattmcm, on 03/17/2008, -6/+40Digg is not your personal army.
- Demeth, on 03/17/2008, -1/+33But I like the stream...
- mrchin, on 03/17/2008, -0/+31Break it! go watch the show. Live. He's doing a test
- mastahack, on 03/17/2008, -0/+28*smack*
YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE! - HeyDriver, on 03/17/2008, -1/+29okay, let's do it folks. I'd love to show these video promotion sites that they've either get with it or get out......bring it on
- craterburnsu, on 03/17/2008, -1/+27Lets test their limits. Plus it is always fun killing things.
- G33k0ft3chz, on 03/17/2008, -4/+29I really doubt Leo would want to go to Revision3. Totally different fanbase. One has frat boys and "myspace" teens, and the other has people that are willing to know technology.
- TheTaoOfBill, on 03/17/2008, -3/+24True but how is that relevant to this article. This article is a heavily tech based article and is about one of the most respected members of the tech community. This is what digg was all about in it's concept.
- Nobiting, on 03/17/2008, -17/+37JOIN REV3 LEO!!!!
- whatthefu, on 03/17/2008, -2/+22I'm digging this because I hear the guy on the radio over the weekend. I didn't know he was that popular.
EDIT: Right when I opened this he mentioned Digg. - Okari, on 03/17/2008, -4/+23And what, host a show that's not about technology? Rev3 has become crap, and the one tech show they do have is dumbed down.
- Nothlit, on 03/17/2008, -0/+18Leo's been around since the stone age of tech media...
- IpwnZnoobs, on 03/17/2008, -0/+18Anything for Leo.
- DEIx15x8, on 03/17/2008, -0/+18Always happy to break things for Leo!
- mike81890, on 03/17/2008, -1/+18Reroute the power through the phaser array and the subspace generators Scotty. You can do it!
- t0ny, on 03/17/2008, -1/+17Dont cross the streams!
- amanilaenvelope, on 03/17/2008, -0/+16TECH TV FTW!!!!!!!!!!
- Solis, on 03/17/2008, -2/+18If Leo wants an army, he gets an army. Show some respect for the man, he's a legend.
- SeaweedWater, on 03/17/2008, -3/+19Am I the only one that doesn't know whats going on?
- serrebi, on 03/17/2008, -3/+18Digg it, peoples.
- G33k0ft3chz, on 03/17/2008, -1/+16Eh, I better boot up my other five or so macs. Maybe I should also have more than one browser running!
We're going to bring down the intarnetz. - A2TrueBlue, on 03/17/2008, -0/+14The feed finished up when the story was around 100 diggs.
- bossm4n, on 03/17/2008, -0/+13Mission accomplished. Got to 2:22 and it totally froze. Hope that helps Leo. I miss the old Tech TV.
- mysedai, on 03/17/2008, -0/+13I wish I could digg this a thousand times.
- Rapter09, on 03/17/2008, -0/+12"On some broadcasts audio is turned off to protect copyright holders."
Now, I'm not exactly sure what that means. I'm presuming some sort of music, or content that he shows.
Wow, that's really sad. Not sad for Leo. Leo's frickin awesome. It's sad that we've come to that point in history, though. - HeyDriver, on 03/17/2008, -0/+12yes, I'm doing my part. killing my bandwidth here. but, I've got four machines running twit.tv/live
- str3ama, on 03/17/2008, -0/+12it'll hold up, but I'm sure the bandwidth consumption on their side will be insane..
- mghwom1, on 03/17/2008, -0/+11It's not hard to crash Stickam. Howard Stern's Eric the Midget does it every night.
- scrag10, on 03/17/2008, -1/+12He hosted G4 tech TV's "screen savers" and I believe so did Kevin Rose (digg founder)?
- Informationator, on 03/17/2008, -0/+11Leo, you're the man. Glad to see you around again. Loved you on TechTV. I've always hated G4 since they ruined everything.
- mysedai, on 03/17/2008, -0/+10Yes, we like it so much we're lending them the digg effect to test their servers.
If it holds up, they're gods, if it doesn't they know how much work they need to do. - EBFoxbat, on 03/17/2008, -0/+10Which is... a huge disappointment. I don't care if they have dumbed-down tech shows. I just won't watch those. if they add content I like I'll watch those. It's hard to do folks. Think about it, other then Tech TV (et al) who else has EVER done it?
- deadnoob, on 03/17/2008, -5/+15id rather be seeing veronica than leo. (sorry leo, nothing against you)
- JSKYs, on 03/17/2008, -1/+11Let the Digg Effect do it's work
- jsg7, on 03/17/2008, -1/+10no, but he had his own tech tv show. I think cinemax has the ***** tv shows...
- ross., on 03/17/2008, -0/+9It held a consistent 1000 to 1300 viewers for 5 hours.
From my own observations, I download about 120Megabytes an hour watching stickam, therefore 1300*120*5= 780gigs of data...oh wow. - VitriolAndAngst, on 03/17/2008, -3/+11I listen to; "This Week In Tech." Twit.com podcasts.
To the small but growing group of people who have reailzed that I am the one human being who "gets" the Universe -- this should be important. To the rest of you chewing your cud, ignore Leo Laporte at your peril.
I know that sounds over the top -- but I just finished an entire bottle of $3 Trader Joe's white wine, and I cannot be stopped. You should not ignore Trader Joe's at your peril. How can someone import Belgian chocolate for less than WalMart? Can you begin to understand that in America, the Middle Men; Archer Daniels Midland and Monsanto GET all the profits? This only seems off topic because, unlike me, you ARE not drunk on white wine and you do not yet understand the Universe.
If there is enough outcry, I'll explain it. I know lots of people are trying to be my friend and I can't keep up.... damn, white wine sure makes a person an ego centric *****. Damn, am I typing out loud?
Oops. - 15thPD, on 03/17/2008, -0/+8I miss when Kevin was the "Dark Tipper" and Martin Sargent was the "Twisted Lister".
- G33k0ft3chz, on 03/17/2008, -1/+9Are they going to bring it? Only time, a broken stream, and us kids at the back of the class freaking out will tell.
- endersadvocate, on 03/17/2008, -1/+9LEAVE STICKAM ALONE!!!
- IanCube, on 03/17/2008, -0/+7Offline.
- illu45, on 03/17/2008, -0/+7I think you meant to say "and your little dog, too"....
- mysedai, on 03/17/2008, -3/+10Ramen.
