It is faster indeed. You need to take the ultimate test....get on digg front page and stay up

Yep, even better, get diggdotted again.

Congrats on the new server. Things are really looking up there.

I just added the article about Mandriva and 3D desktop to digg: http://digg.com/linux_unix/Mandriva_2007_Free_with_3D_Desktop_Tutorial_and_Video
It probably won't make it to the frontpage since it has no 'ubuntu' or 'vista' word in it, but we can still try.

Well, of course, it's all just to test the new server, right?

Dugg.

Well... we didn't do very well with that one about Mandriva, but there is another one -- One Laptop Per Child: Between B1 and B2, Progress Report -- maybe this one will be more lucky?
We certainly need to test the new server, don't we?

You sure are churning out articles fast.

Dugg.

We're not gonna give up that easy, oh no! Here's another one: http://digg.com/linux_unix/The_future_of_packaging_software_in_Linux
This one has some better chance since it's got 12 giggs in some 3 hours already. And the article itself is interesting as well

Hehe, Dugg. Nice article. I'm excited about the whole CNR idea in a technical sense, but there are some non-technical issues that I don't like about it. Libervis will have an article on that soon.

Thanks

Heh, I guess it got burried just before getting published. That suscks. 52 diggs and not published on the main site. I'm wondering if one can check the reasons why people bury articles -- I cannot see this option anywhere on digg...

Could ask on #digg on irc.freenode.net [tho they aint an official channel of Digg.com which means it really should be ##digg.]

Darn, that happened to me for Libervis once, but that may have been because it crashed our server. Why would they bury your article I've no idea. One guess is that it got enough diggs incrementally to get on the homepage and then an overwhealming number of people reading the homepage found it unworthy of it or something, and got it buried. But yeah that sucks.

On the other hand, did you actually see it on the homepage? Maybe 52 diggs isn't enough to get to homepage anymore (due to rising number of submissions), though unlikely I guess.

michuk> hi there, I have a simple question. wondering what happened with the article: http://digg.com/linux_unix/The_future_of_packaging_software_in_Linux
52 diggs and it disappeared. probably it has been buried, but can I check it somehow?
yeah, it never gets fully removed
can I check the reasons it got buried somehow?
cause I can't think of any, actually -- it's not controversial or anything, just covers the latest activities in the area of packaging for Linux, no idea why anyone would bury it
not really
yeah, I have no idea
but you can't check as far as I know
OK I see, tx

So, it seems it can't be checked. Oh well... maybe next time we make it then

Damn sorry.. was worth a try I suppose.

Oh well, they didn't want us on digg so I sent it to slashdot: http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/02/19/040236
(the server is still alivie, I wonder how come )

Heh nice. I wonder which is better, slashdot or digg?

I like Slashdot better -- it has much more professional news and informs about important stuff only. I read http://digg.com/linux_unix as well since it has many more news that /. sometimes misses.

Being slashdotted brings more visitirs than being dugg since the news on /. stays for a bit longer on front page. But there are mostly "geeky" visitors, while Digg brings more newbies who are the target for PolishLinux.org. So, the conclusion is that it's best to be both /.-tted and dugg

That sure is so. Nice analysis.

I'll try slashdot for our new site that's coming, its server should bear slashdot.

Not always; most of the hardware stuff, unless it's from a successful big company (AMD, Intel, nVidia...), is snake oil.

Welcome all! Here is another try to conquer Digg.com: http://digg.com/linux_unix/KateOS_LIVE_3_2_Beta_m_a_Lightweight_Multimedia_Desktop
Have a good diggin'

BTW, HAve any of you recently tried KateOS? It's a pretty nice and original distro, certainly worth trying.

[digg spamming mode off]

Dugg all. Will read later. I trust it's good.

Today diggin': http://digg.com/linux_unix/Comprehensive_Introduction_to_E17_Desktop_Enlightenment
Heh, I don't need to submit these articles to Digg anymore, they are doing it for me

Edit: Ha! It got blocked again, at 33 diggs. Someone doesn't like us there.

They kicked it out so I resubmitted it as myself: http://digg.com/linux_unix/E17_m_Desktop_Enlightenment/
Let's see what happens...

Another article on digg: http://digg.com/linux_unix/Metisse_m_you_thought_you_knew_what_3D_was
It seems that I should leave posting to Digg to others since they usually do better than me

No luck recently with getting dugg but keep tryin' http://digg.com/linux_unix/The_Power_of_Linux_Console
