Here is another one:

yeah I saw that one. ;D

there are about 15-20 that deal with 'our' issues.

I just joined Digg myself, so I'll dig all these when I get home.

I'm also on Steven Carson's list of things to digg. I'll post those here too.

Wouldn't it be wonderfull if the front page of dig was a NewSite with complete libertarian perspective!

Tracy

I Dugg everything listed here.

So, how does this work.  Is their some algorithm in Digg that says the most diggs it gets the higher it is on the front page?

Is it some combination of most diggs/most comments?

And the Date must be in their too somewhere.

How come John Stossels isn't on the front page. It was 6 days ago when it was submitted but it's got over 1000 diggs.

How does the algorithm work.  Rating =  A% (num diggs) + (100-A)% (Num Comments - X(number of days since submitted) ?

It looks like their's some randomizing in their too so the front page doesn't look the same all the time.

Does this mean that something needs to have all it's diggs the 1st day in order to get the front page?

It'd be nice to know how it worked.

This Lew Rockwell artical needs to be dugg. Especially with seeing all the annoying ads all over celebrating it.

http://digg.com/political_opinion/Disable_the_ADA

It is with sad regret that America celebrated the 16th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) yesterday, July 26, 2006. 16 years ago, in 1990, President George H. W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act into law. The American with Disabilities act has done so much harm to people that are genuinely disabled. Repeal It.

I dugg the story, and gave the appropriate responses to pro-Russell/anti-Russell comments.

I just went through and posted a bunch of comments.

Please go there and digg my comments (I'm skyorbit there.) And perhaps reply.

PS Are you only allowed to post so many comments per story, and dig/bury a certain number per story?

While giving +/- to the various comments, I could not discern a pattern for which ones would drop below my viewing level, and which ones would allow me to comment.

Curious.

Kevin

That wasn't my question. After awhile I'd try to digg some comments (AFter I'd dugg or burried, like 70 or so) and the clicking on the digg/bury icons stopped doing anything.

And I tried to make a last reply nad I submitted it several times and it didn't show up.

Makes me wonder if their's a limit or something.

In regards to your question, you can set it to only show a certain threshhold.

There is a HUGE discussion right now on /. about LEO abuse regarding cameras.

So large, in fact, /. editors opened a new topic with a long list of choice quotes, many stray from just cameras.

Now the real news: I have three mod points remaining.  Someone else needs to post Russel's story ASAP and give me the post ID#.

If I comment, I can't moderate.  I littered the previous story with Anonymous Coward postings.

I digg it.

One thing that's important to know is that stories listed under "World & Business," including most of the stories we've submitted, do not appear on the digg.com front page, even if they're promoted. They do appear on the section front, though. The front page defaults to the "Technology" section, and digg users who want something else to appear on the front page have to change this in their user preferences.

This is why, whenever I have, or can make, a tie-in between a libertarian issue and a tech issue (or they're the same issue!), I'll promote it under a Technology section.

That used to be true.  If you go to the Digg site now, and you are not already logged into your Digg account, you will see ALL of the categories mixed together.   It is kind of frustrating a times because new stories tend to drift off the front page quite rapidly.

My Liberty Dollar stories made it there.

Firstly, you need about 40 diggs in less than a day, preferably 12 hours, to move to the "popular page". That is when things really take off. The more diggs your article gets before they make the dump, the higher on the front popular page your story appears (you are generally out competing 6-12 other newly promoted stories). It is a primacy effect: whoever is the top story gets the most hits and the most diggs, further perpetuating its time on top.

Of my 4 articles on the LD vs US Mint story, three became Popular, two making it to the "World & Business" page, and the first making the front page of Digg.

It is really really important that people cooperate in digging each others stories if we are to break our stories through into the popular zeitgeist. This is where our individualism and factionalism works against us and to the advantage of the collectivists, who don't have any problem promoting a story they may not agree totally with so long as it furthers the cause. It is hard with us, because while we have core libertarian issues and stories, everyone is guilty of bringing right and left boundary issues into the mix: pro-war vs anti-war, abortion, an alleged draft, etc.

What I'd like to develop is a site that is kinda like Digg, but which everyone can submit their Digg submitted links to, and through which everyone can just go through the list and digg the articles with one button, while judging its relative libertarian-ness with a different site-specific widget so people can stay away from boundary issues on the right or left if they so choose. The diggs pass through to digg.com, and it helps build popularity of our stories on our issues to help propagandize the consensus reality.

Any Diggs of this story would be much appreciated:

If you read down in the digg comments you will see that I also mentioned the Gimme Liberty Bar and our new Virtual Drinking Game, which I have modified to include drinking every time John Stossel's name is mentioned or someone says "Gimme a Break!"   

The complete rules are on the website (http://gimmeliberty.com).

(Tracy) just out of curiousity, but how many diggs does it take to really get some exposure for a topic (50-100, 100+)? Obviously, the more the merrier.

between 30 to 100 BEFORE it gets buried.

I think 30 diggs in the 1st hour pretty much ensures it.

So, what are we to do? What's the point of taking time to digg articles that are gonna be immediately buried? I mean, does digg really have that big of a hard-on for us and everything we promote? Talk about being shady...

That's what they want you to think. "Oh, it's useless, I won't bother submitting stuff anymore." The answer, of course, is (aside from reporting it as abuse, since it is) to submit even more stuff.

There haven't been any articles worth digging in the last week.

Were you the one pushing in line?

In attempt to simplify things and reduce crossposting of the same info, I've organized a Digg Ron Paul thread (http://forum.soulawakenings.com/index.php?topic=7617.0) on the Ron Paul 2008 subforum (http://forum.soulawakenings.com/index.php?board=31.0). :)

The comments are good and I added the AP article.

DIGG riot (http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/geeks-will-not-be-silenced/breaking-digg-riot-in-full-effect-over-pulled-hd%20dvd-key-story-256982.php)... geeks in revolt.

Absolutely. "Protecting" DVDs (or HD-DVDs) is silly, and the law which enables this sort of cartel is utterly absurd.

I know some of you here are apolitical or even anti-political. I go back and forth myself. But getting a fillibustering, stonewalling, libertarian in the Senate could stop the bleeding long enough for our more agorist and secessionist methods to work.

Giving him publicity also spreads the message.

They have it in their head that Ron and Rand Paul tell their people what to do and they do it. That's not the case at all. It's quite the opposite really. People who love freedom have chosen people like Ron Paul, Rand Paul, Peter Schiff, and others as people they can trust. Ron Paul wasn't running for the presidency. The people were and Ron Paul was their avatar. Now, in his race, Rand Paul has become a representative of people who love liberty, because of his past integrity.

MEMO TO POLITICIANS: If you want people to campaign for you in a grass roots, guerrilla, bottom-up manner, be honest.

Now in response to this conservative uprising, Grayson's trying to pretend to be Anti-Establishment by saying he'll attack McConnell talking to the wall street journal. In the same breath he releases a press release attacking Rand for refusing to endorse Mitch for Senate Minority leader. ??
