- Skanadian, on 10/10/2007, -1/+18The reason you submit a story on Digg and it goes nowhere is because you don't use words such as EVER, EVAR, AMAZING, Ron Paul, iPhone, and [pic]. Also, for finishing touches, add more than one exclamation point.
- lkv87, on 10/10/2007, -2/+18Someone be my friend ?
...or just bury me, they're both equally as fun. - Junkyarddawg, on 10/10/2007, -0/+141) Listen carefully to the lyrics of the Henry Rollins song "Liar".
2) Do exactly as he says. - DeskFlyer, on 10/10/2007, -1/+14I totally suck at this stuff.
- sarazen, on 10/10/2007, -2/+13I can't decide if this is about winning friends and gaining influence so much as it is about gaming the system, albeit legally for the most part.
- FriedTurkey, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9That seems like a lot of work to get a story Digged. Is it really that rewarding and worth the effort? 100 stories get submitted on the same thing. The ones in the clique get to the front page. Do I really care that much to sit at the cool table?
- Scyth3, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Near the end I thought it was going to say... "Build a pyramid scheme which gets your peons to vote up your stories."
- christoast, on 09/04/2008, -1/+8BREAKING: Ron Paul with an iphone [MOST AMAZING PIC EVER]
- Error601, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Watch daytime talk shows...use their hype techniques.
- GaiaUnlimited, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6There are droves of articles on Digg's front page that do not belong. People just want that "my article appeared on the front page of Digg" narcissistic feeling and are even willing to exploit news such as that of Virginia Tech.
- jedikv, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4You must be new to digg
- anarchytv, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4the people who do this are so incredibly pathetic. this is like giving tips on how to claw your way to the top of dead bodies in a gas chamber, to get the last breath of fresh air and so be the 'winner' and last to die. face it, digg is a cesspool at the ass end of the internet universe. the end of the road where habitual computer addicts come to congregate around a watering hole of tabloid like fluff articles. you think you have a life, but you don't. people who have a life, never bother wasting hours on the internet, in the same way, they never bother wasting hours in front of a television. they've got better things to do. me, i'm here for the girls... oh, wait....
- Sauwan, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5Maybe if you had more friends they could help you out.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4where is the part on this list where I either get or give a BJ?
- stklaw, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5I bet you won't even be buried.
- emehrkay, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4dugg for the title...one of my favorite books
- Drgn547, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4I thought maybe there would have been a reference or thanks to Dale Carnegie, who wrote the book "How to Win Friends and Influence People" in 1936... but nope... just stealing the title.
- theshizzler, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4you forgot 'BREAKING'
- SjRaptor, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3I wish I had some friends on Digg... so lonely :(
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2American democracy is quite literally being destroyed by hype and fear mongering. But hey we're have "fun," right?
- Talphin, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I'll be your friend! Anyone else want to join this little group of diggers here? :P
- FunkyNuts, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Interesting article.......if you're a person with no life who cares about getting your favorite stories at the top of Digg's list. I think that, combined with $3.53 will get you a tall white mocha.
I mean, seriously...."hang out where they are"?? Why? - KyleGoetz, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Beyond that, most of the suggestions in the article fall under the category (IMO) of "creepy as *****." I don't want Digg users randomly IMing me to talk about stuff just like I don't want Digg users randomly calling my home phone. It's just creepy.
- ElMoselYEE, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3BREAKING: Al Gore at his desk with 3 Apple Cinema Displays [AMAZING HDR PIC]
- altered, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Totally agree. That article made me uncomfortable just reading it.
- Tetraca, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Dale Carnegie is rolling in his grave.
- AndrewDB, on 01/10/2008, -0/+1I'm just here for myself, if you friend me, so be it, I'll friend you back if I think we've got similar interests.. but frankly if you don't digg my articles so what, we're independent thinkers around here.. not drones.
- Tabris, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I'm lkv's friend now!
- Skanadian, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I knew I was missing one. How could I have forgot BREAKING...
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1There's actually a lot to be learned from this particular comment thread, if you really think about it.
No, really. Think about it. - Sauwan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Well great. Now I need to replace my nerdar.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I'd rather expend this energy during the workday and get paid handsomely for it. I could give a ***** what my geek rank is.
- christoast, on 09/04/2008, -0/+1I'm too lazy to do any of that stuff. Thats why im doomed to be just another lonely brick in the lonely wall.
- ExtremeEzine, on 07/15/2008, -0/+1Wow, a lot of very harsh comments. I'm surprised, I thought it was a very good post. It's funny, when you see a comment that's stupid and insulting just look to the left a see their user name. Suddenly you begin to concider the source.
- fnaqzna, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1What happened at Virginia Tech?
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I was afraid you were going to neglect your position in the fishbowl. But you didn't.
- StiGUP, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Yes how to win friends and influence people is a great book. I recommend it to all. I've read it a few times.
- texnofobix, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1This sounds like a Dale Carnegie book.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Used to be, using a faceless medium to get a date was the saddest/most pathetic action available to us internet users. It seems now that making mere friends via that same medium has now taken the lead.
This speaks volumes about our reliance upon information technology, and our insistence upon believing everything that we read to be 100% accurate and lend meaning to our lives.
Hello, future, you've arrived. - jtizzle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Test failed.
Abort, Retry, Ignore? - ElMoselYEE, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2if you want to get your site name or service out there...this can be a good way to do it, it's not just for desperate people with no friends or social skills
...i hope - paisley, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Digg is a great tool to bypass the non-working functionality of Google Toolbar's Blogger plug in...
who cares about getting diggs.. if someone already submitted the story i have submitted i dig theirs.. one day it will work that way... unless they are lame. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Get off the computer and go hang out with your real friends or at least try to hook up with those met online. And this from a Digg user? OMG What is thing called Daylight?
- hm2k, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Umm, isn't this stalking?
- FagenRiley, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0The ordinary man with extraordinary power is the chief danger for mankind -- not the fiend or the sadist.
- theblt, on 10/10/2007, -2/+21. Ron Paul
2. Police Brutality
3. iPhone
4. ??????
5. Profit - plagiats, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Stop IM-ing me ! I'm no influence people here!
- hijinksensue, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0There are some good points here but most of it is common sense. "People will ignore you if you just whore your own Diggs..."
- 10goto10, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0"Be a real person."
?SYNTAX ERROR
READY. - sallos, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2buried for being beyond pointless
