I just thought I'd do an informal poll to see if any PJ peeps are on digg.com. I thought we could create a nice little network to help get stories posted on the frontpage. |

I visit often because some of "Sedge's diggs" on PJ sound interesting,
but find it very confusing to navigate on my own there. I guess I wait
for Sedge to lead the way. Not a member.

| http://digg.com/users/twoschizos - I digg. Beats a weblog. Also got a live bookmark, which allows me to see the latest diggs with the push of a button! |

Digg is indeed a random collection of blogs/links, but it's a good one. In a few years me thinks the popularity of the digg news aggregation model will overtake primary news sources like CNN. In any case, I'm writing a nerdy videogame article right now and I was going to do my best to get listed on popular sites like digg (and in turn bring some exposure to PJ). If you are a digger or know of any diggers willing to help the PJ cause lemme know. As you can see, my motivation for getting in contact with other digg members is entirely selfish. Buuuuut, as I said before I think it would be neat if we got a small group together to help each other out in case any of us had something we were interested in having "dugg" in the future. |

Cool, I added Blick and Brian to my empty friends list on digg. Maybe we can do an aggregate digg feed on the front-page or something too. |

I guess I should've made it clear earlier in the topic that a mini-digg community could help us promote our own stuff. I thought we could create a community aggregate feed and digg each other's submissions should we have any. Once digg opens up beyond technology into the arts (I'm sure they will soon) we can post all the interesting pixel art stuff on there and hopefully get it pushed through.
@Shark/jalonso: I added you to the friends list. @Vidd/Pie: jalonso brought up a good question... what are your digg handles? I'll add them to the master list. |

| I just read an interesting article about how soliciting for digg friends is apparently against digg policy. Digg's "social" side seems to be pretty sh*tty. Oh well. |
