Calling on the BlazersEdge Army (update)

by mxpx5678 on Apr 2, 2009 4:51 PM PDT

I have come up with another task for the blazersedge army.

There is a website called Digg.com that is all about user submitted stories. They get "Dugg" by users and stories make it to the front page. It usually is full of stories about Obama, Apple, Legalizing Weed, Funny Pictures and why Bush was an awful president.

I think it would be great to find a good BlazersEdge Story, submit it to digg and get everyone to "digg" it so it makes it on the front page.

So lets think of a good story to Digg and one of us can submit it and get it to the front page....

Ok digg this.....

Digg has a vastly more sophisticated algorithm that can detect "fraud" than most "voting sites"

Tons of friends usually digging the same story, or lots of new people signing up just to digg one story would very likely get detected so the story (e.g. KP interview, some great Dave story, etc.) doesn’t make it to the sports category front page or Digg.com front page. Also just emptying your cookies obviously has no effect since you need to have an account and that gets tracked server side.

But I’m there at the ready to help and try digg. Digg user since 2005.

I know Ben. You, sir, are no Ben.

Actually, I don’t know Ben, but I do know it is harder to mobilize the Blazer’s edge army unless you have columns on the main page, not just the fanshots.
