Much Ado About IE6

Comment in News (122 diggs, 8 replies) - on 07/10/2009

Cool, thanks for the reply - I was just curious. It's nice to see that Digg's a place where you can take something that interests you and just go with it. (see comment)

7m in UK 'use illegal downloads'

Comment in News (2 diggs, 0 replies) - on 05/29/2009

Comment in News (14 diggs, 0 replies) - on 05/23/2009

Comment in News (144 diggs, 10 replies) - on 05/23/2009

I'm still not believing it. TechCrunch is, was, and always has been shit, and until Last.fm comes out on their blog and admits to doing wrong, I'm sticking behind them. This article is nothing but a bunch of paragraphs starting "we believe..." … (see comment)

Beyond stupid. How is it fair to arrest, charge and attempt to prosecute somebody, and then leave it hanging over their head for a year? (see comment)
