Digg

I got dugg today. It was a flash storm of traffic that only lasted about an hour, but it was fun.

My post on whether or not Digg could be leveraged as a search engine was the target of the Digg. It’s not a particularly good post. It obviously made the front page because it’s a sensational idea to the Digg community. I don’t think more than 20% of the commenters over at Digg actually read it, considering the contents of their comments.

But, I really don’t mean to be negative about the experience. It’s entertaining, and I got a few linkbacks out in the ether for it. Maybe now Google will index my blog. I’ve had a sitemap.xml sitting around forever waiting for them. I guess the indexing is a couple months backlogged over there.
