[jQuery] Digg push

2006-09-25 Thread Yehuda Katz
Sorry to be doing this, but I just want to try one last round of promotion.The Visual jQuery Magazine is about to fall off the bottom of the front page of the Programming Category. To try to forestall that for a bit, please digg it if you haven't already (and ask your friends to do so as well!).
You guys have put Visual jQuery on the map. If you can help with one final push, I'd be eternally grateful.-- Yehuda KatzWeb Developer | Wycats Designs(ph)718.877.1325

I should point out that, after Digg's recent changes, it'll quite easily spot
'cartels' which regularly vote on the same stories.

If the same people digg the same articles, then what'll happen is that, by
issue 3 - 6 or so, our votes will be nigh on worthless as they will be
reweighted to prevent 'digg-bombing', and simply won't go very far to the
front page.

Yehuda, next time put a combination of 'Most Amazing Video Ever!',  
'Ruby', 'Free', 'Ajax' and 'OSX' and you'll never move off the front  
page :)

Again, nice work on the magazine.

Well hopefully, by that time the magazine will have taken off on it's own
and it won't be a problem.

Good point though.

We should work up a digg-strategy based on the new digg algorithm. I was quite happy about the diggs, but I know it could have been a lot better.At some point, I'll do a site redesign, and we can digg that up.

 Good fyi. I'd quibble about the front-page of the programming section. 
 I'm sure there are *some* people that check sections of interest to 
 them. May not be a whole lot of people, but there are certainly *some.* 
 Am I missing something?

I get the programming RSS feeds for both reddit and digg. However, I find 
the digg feed rather boring, and the articles there to be of lesser 
quality on average. So, while I will possibly glance at an article on the 
programming digg, if it makes it to the front of the programming reddit 
I've probably read it.

I'd suggest getting a Visual jQeury Magazine article on Ajaxian.com. I
think it has a reasonable amount of readers. You can use the
contribute news link on the top right hand corner of the front page:
