I second that motion.

Digg just went offline!

It's back, but the comments are sorted. You have to click on a link to see all responses.

In response to the thread, I think the powers that be that run Digg are taking note.

I learned about Ron Paul on digg, and alot of my friends did as well, so I don't think it is a useless effort, but trying to get every Ron Paul article to the front page is.

Although, in the last four days, I have seen four Ron Paul articles on the front page, so I guess we are starting to get through.

also look at the common dreams site for the blog about ralph nader. some negative comments.

You know, there have been times that I have looked over at the DIGG front page and it was plastered with a large number of Ron Paul articles. It has happened a lot. If I wasn't a Ron Paul supporter, I would get ticked at some point and probably start digging some of them down. So, if someone is doing this, I somewhat can understand.

It's kind of like the old story about crying wolf. If we want the ability to send something to the front page, we need to start respecting DIGG a little more and not abuse it for every story that comes along.

I agree. I've been trying to mend some fences. I also think we could focus on some of the other candidates. John McCain is in trouble and not meeting fundraising expectations. We could Digg these types of stuff. We could also focus on Congressional races. Even if Ron Paul is elected, he won't be able to do everything himself. He will need some help. At 435 races for the House of Representatives, we could certainly Digg about many candidates, spread out so as not to tick anyone off.

Ok that is weird. I went to the article, it had 62 diggs. Read it went to Digg it and it disappeared.
I just went back to it with the above link. It had 5 diggs, and mentioned having disappeared with 60 diggs, when I logged in it disappeared again.

The PINKO's at Digg have banned me and removed all of my articles...

I abided by their TOS. They outfit that runs Digg is very leftist and doesn't like Ron Paul. The hell with them. I have my methods =)

 

[torchbearer]

[akalucas]

[cujothekitten]

You mean Newsvine? Like the guys that run the Facebook Election '08 app?

Thousands of people learned about RP for the first time on Digg. Digg gets MILLIONS of visitors per day.

90% of them below 18. FACT. Quit wasting your time and go outside and talk to real voters.

Yeah that'd be the one

Don't forget shoutwire, netscape and stumbleupon.

It looks like they did a whole lot. It seems rather quiet and eerie on Digg. Of course, some people might be a little irked at the new commenting system.

i'm boycotting digg. maybe everyone else will consider doing the same.
