(I don’t really have anything to add to that, I just wanted to use the phrase “playing Digg users like drunk kittens.” Hat tip to Joe for once again providing me with a better title than I could drum up myself.)
(P.S. If you found this page searching for “drunk kittens,” first of all, you have some serious issues you need to work out. And second, here’s one. Here’s another. Here’s plenty more.)
Post-mortem: 1309 diggs, 104 comments, ~9000 unique visitors. AFAIK, my site never faltered (at least, there aren’t any duggmirror.com links in the comments). Now, would someone be so kind as to re-post the link in 43 days?
