Do we have any Digg users in the house?

I’m wondering if we have any Digg (or other like-minded site) users on the forums. If so, do you ever post Xpress stories there? Which ones, and what kind of stories would be worth your time to post there in the future?

Good question, Steve.

If you go to Digg and search on the word “Asheville,” only three stories come up: a recent one about Kenny George, an old one about Joe Mikulik’s temper tantrum, and a story about the shooting at the 13-year-old’s b’day party in Montford last spring.

This is the Asheville I want the world to think of.

Hey, Steve, the one about Kenny is a keeper. He’s a worthy local hero.

Well, I really did Digg the article about my documentary this morning so:

But I’ll starting adding other articles from MountainX to http://digg.com

I don’t frequent Dig, but I’m guilty of submitting the Flag-arrest post to Fark.com last year, which I’m sure made the webmaster giddy.
