What is Digg?157 Comments
- drdrifter, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3since digg is user controlled...does this mean everyone in the channel will have op's????
/joke - ignorantcow, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3##digg on freenode has been established- complete with RSS broadcaster.
- JesseJ, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Cool! I'm in!
- echimu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Heh nice ill love to see irc.digg.com :)
- ZinZa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Joining the channel and Diggin this, good stuff :)
btw: "For the IRC chat, we recommend mIRC as a stand-alone client and Chatzilla as a plug-in for Firefox." Should read "For the IRC chat, we recommend irssi as a stand-alone client or just use Opera as the is no extra plug-in required for irc in Opera." - peterw99, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1why not join the rest of I{TV on irc.techphile.ca hak5, openaphla, wasd.tv all there.
- ScoTTeh, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1StarChat cant handle this, servers are split.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I would have recommended freenode since it's channels are all technology related. This works too though, any decent client can connect to multiple servers!
- stedios, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1#digg is always 'alive' thats what i like most :)
- ZinZa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Huh, have a look at starchat irc-network's info, there are quite a few nasty 'restrictions' in there:
http://www.starchat.net/about.htm
"StarChat is a privately-owned and operated Internet Relay Chat (IRC) network founded in June of 1997. StarChat is a conservative, family-oriented network, and we reserve all rights to deny access to anyone without warning or explanation. Because we’re family-oriented, we ask that all nicknames, channel names and channel topics be kept “Rated-PG”. Chat client parameters such as Identd and Full Name fields should also be kept appropriate in consideration of other guests."
Uh, maybe relocate to a more liberal network, the ircnet for example ? - johnkimble, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1as if we don't already read enough of the digg users opinions...
pshh - Philipp_Lenssen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Nice. Just joined.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It always amazes me what networks people choose to use for their channels. Why starnet? What the hell is starnet? Why not EFnet or Undernet? I hate having to open multiple connections to different servers just to be in one channel.
- error401, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Toss it on EFNet and I'll join. I'm in too many networks as it is.
- bDreadz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i'm there.
- Carbito, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I hope that now this is on the front page that this channel will get going.
- NidStyles, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1**Dude, its been like 10 years since I used IRC**
Damn you got me beat by three years. I was hoping I could claim the, "Holy ***** I haven't done that in so long", title here.
Either way IRC is over-rated if you have no idea what it's supposed to be thre for. Certainly not pron either. Though the last time I went on my oldie favorite on EFnet, that's all that was on the topic list. - unitedstatians, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Turns out that if someone types “startkeylogger” or “stopkeylogger” in an IRC channel, anyone on the channel using the affected Norton products will be immediately kicked off without warning.
- PootiePoot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1hooray for irc
- Mousse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Checked it out.
The conversations are shallow and boring.
It's chat, I know. - imaek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Excellent. I'm there.
- Webteeth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Here's a direct link for people to copy and paste into their browsers: irc://irc.starchat.net/digg
- Tobey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The server is officially dead. Well, kind of. Anyone who joins now will be lead to a "second dimension" which contains a spammer and no ops. But if you were lucky enough to get in before this occurred, you will find 83 users and 6 ops. I don't what happened.
- Namco, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1that was fun... but it's still just IRC lol. Doesn't exactly fit in with this here "Internet 2.0" kinda thing going on right now. Anyway old school is still great anyway. irc is timeless like usenet.
- djkritikal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1In the true spirit, I say use freenode.
- stedios, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1digg effect on irc.. does feel neat :)
- stedios, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1yes, i hope so as well
- ArchivalQuality, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1IRC only creates pain... and suffering.. This is a bad idea..
- Tobey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"the best part is the ***** flooding the chat telling people to go to HIS channel on freenode, and no moderators doing anything about it
This is lame"
We're having some problems with the server. We can't seem to see this guy while other people can. We don't know what's going on. - liz4rd, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1irc.freenode.net ##digg is where its at!
- pavelich, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0yeah every 13 year old (well i hope they are 13) on digg goes in and says things that well, are simply dumb and annoying
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1then why you here notkevin... you must be that guy that always says ***** and is the one doing it the worst aren't you.... notkevin... what kind of a name is that for someone to have... any not be all about kevin.... you mad cause he doesn't want to pack your fudge....
i bet alex would. - overaction, on 07/14/2009, -0/+0@exoendo:
Your hostility seems uncalled for and unnecessary. - Tezkah, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0the best part is the ***** flooding the chat telling people to go to HIS channel on freenode, and no moderators doing anything about it
This is lame - Tobey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Well, the server is back up. Don't know for how long though.
- Amplix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i was in there for like 10 seconds and i saw kevin rose leave. was it really him? or some trucker named Art
- exoendo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Believe it or not I trust the vast amount of diggers to be mature enough not to mess with the channel. I guess you don't.
- exoendo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's lame because it will destory digg. Digg alliances will form. In addition to that.. the ops will no doubt use the channel as a platform for broadcasting their own submittions.
- Sc0rian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0look..
no offence but its a little crappy irc with a big website it wont work..
we should all join a digg channel in freenode or quakenet... - ignorantcow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0What is this starchat thing? Why not on Freenode?
- apache2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0just chatted in there a bit, fun idea, but too many people talking at once, too much effort for me to keep up heheh
- exoendo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0clearly*
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0go to #digg on efnet... it's still normal there
- exoendo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Sorry not buying it.
- overaction, on 07/14/2009, -0/+0@exoendo,
Since you don't care what I think, it might not interest you to know then that the submitters are not doing this for their own benefit (since I know them). This is supposed to be a place where diggers can chat. Simple enough. - cheese06, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0its cheese, im talking a lot in this irc chat. someone make me op.
- Skab, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wow, that was pretty retarded, has some spots, but dumbass's need to be regulated on.
- _Simplistic_, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I was the one being all lude about Sarah Lane.
Guzzler and whatnot.
Heh. - exoendo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0When people try to use us for their own benefit it gets me peeved. That's what the submitters cleraly are doing.
Secondly I don't care what you think. - Historian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Let's get this on a network that can actually handle all of us digg users... As if people didn't know by now what was coming to their servers....
