Just in case a few of us here on the boards didn't know about this website:

'Digg is all about user powered content. Every article on digg is submitted and voted on by the digg community. Share, discover, bookmark, and promote the news that's important to you!' <<taken straight from the website.

in my own words>> it's a very cool website, and a good way to get very interesting and unique news. and, b/c the digg community is very large, you often get breaking news about anything faster than the mainstream sources can.

the site itself has a very interesting background(to me..) If anyone on these boards used to watch TechTv back in the day, you might remember one co-host from The Screen Savers named Kevin Rose. He and many other AMAZINGLY imformative and great hosts (such as Leo Laporte, Patrick Norton, Alex Albrecht, Dan and Kat) all got fired from the network when it sold out to Comcast, and was renamed G4TechTv(later shortened to just G4, b/c it involves almost zero technology based information anymore) Anywho, Kevin Rose didn't give up on his and the networks fans. He kept going and eventually had this idea for a user-powered news website named Digg. It is growing rapidly and quickly becoming one of the most visited sites on the inter-galactic-net.

I require that you all know about it and go to it, as it is one of the sites i visit almost daily along with this one and a few others.

www.digg.com

also, if you were a fan of TechTv like i was and are curious about what the rest of the old gang has done, Leo Laporte now does a series of podcasts that can be found at www.twit.tv
he often features old TechTv hosts on his shows.

Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht also have a podcast which is my favorite called Diggnation found at www.diggnation.com.

and lastly, Patrick Norton has a podcast called DLTV found at www.digitallifetv.com

originally i was just gonna quickly let everyone know about Digg.com...but i got carried away. Hopefully someone here used to watch TechTv haha..
