Its a user submitted news site. People submit news (by “digging” it and when people vote or “Digg” it, it goes up in rating.

Most online bloggers/nerds goal in life is to make a Digg frontpage with a story.

So my article on my blog got submitted or “dugg”. Now people who are members of digg can go and see the story and digg it too to help its rating.

If you have a [digg.com](http://digg.com) account go to my blog and click the DIGG IT under where it says “2 diggs”. It will count your digg and help me obtain nerd god status

It’s a repost of another story. Can’t remember the name of it, so I’m not even going to attempt to search for it… but the real article about it showed all the various pictures that can show up.

I’ma try to find that story.

there was an article that was titled “Why 99.9 percent of submissions never get to the front page of [digg.com](http://digg.com)” that was the most popular story on digg for the week. Kinda ironic and funny but it was a good read if you are into that kinda thing.
