Lets Digg something to the frontpage

[squirrel]

Ok guys, heres my plan.

Let's get some news article or something that is worth letting the world know about, and everyone on the same day must digg the article, because on digg it only has 24 hours to reach the frontpage. We need about 45 people or more to do this. If you don't have an account, you should signup in order to take part!

What do you guys think?

I'm willing, although this isn't very legit.

Why not? I'm not forcing anyone to do anything

 

[AntiThesis]

I'm game. Just lemme know and we'll sort out.

Need more replies! What about TAG (http://www.tag.org.za/) to the frontpage? Guys this will worth if we get enough people as any stories on the frontpage get 15 000+ hits

A South African broadband story has already been featured on Digg.

That was me

But if someone comes up with a better link my digg will feature for a second story ....

That was about 300 days ago, so why not do it again?

No problem with the concept, but methinks it should reach the front page of myadsl.co.za first. I check in regularly, and have only now seen this thread - via tectonic.co.za's TAG pages. Perhaps a message to RPM asking for help?

I'm in, we just need to find a good article.

http://digg.com/tech_news/Telecoms_Action_Group_opens_for_donations <-- This is worthwhile. I say in the meantime we digg this untill we find something else!

If someone could post the code above in pure HTML in this forum, then we'll have a button right here to digg the post ... Can one of the admins do this?

Thanks jacauc, antowan can you do this perhaps? I don't know how to.

AFIAK there is a time limit of 24 hours on stories getting to the frontpage ... this isn't going to get there ...

Ah, ok, thanks kilps.

I think that it would be better to dig an article on the M&G advert when it happens anyway, so this is probably a blessing in disguise.
