Dugg… and unDugg
I tried posting the previous story to digg, and it seemed to be doing really well, 30+ diggs in under an hour, several comments and 200+ people heading over to my blog, when it suddenly dropped off the digg index. The story is still there in the same place (here) but it no longer appears on the index so nobody can find it to digg it.
I tried looking on the web, seems if someone hits that ‘problem’ button, it just drops the story off the index. Wierd. Someone posted a comment saying they had reported the story (cos they already it? not sure how they knew my server logs…) before it dropped off.
Seems pretty lame – if people like my article they it shouldn’t be possible for someone else to delete it? Still never mind, Digg traffic is only good for informing people, it slams your server without generating any ad revenue so it’s kinda charitable really.
The Digg text was:
Firefox has won the browser war on Digg – but Linux still loses the desktop
Digg users are the technical elite. This article shows a detailed breakdown of what browsers and operating systems they use – and there are some surprises. Microsoft’s venerable Internet Explorer hasn’t just lost the first place – It’s in danger of dropping to third!
