Digg.com is likely facing a series of lawsuits that may well end this popular user-driven news site forever. The website has gone through an incredible and unprecedented series of transformations in the last 24 hours. As of right now, even major websites like Slashdot and Wired are (at best) not yet telling the full story or even (at worst) giving inaccurate or incomplete information. For example, no one is reporting the fact that the illegal code in question has been up on Digg.com for months! Digg first adhered to its Terms of Service, then violated them as well as the law in a 180-degree turn-around.

All over the internet people are illegally listing or linking to a newly discovered HD-DVD processing key. This copyrighted string of numbers allows people to crack DVDs and create pirated copies. Beyond cropping up everywhere, pages listing the key are being linked to from sites like Reddit, Digg and Slashdot. Some are even selling it on coffee mugs, t-shirts and bumper stickers.

Craze over the icanhascheezburger phenomena is growing to ridiculous proportions. Things have gotten to the point where people are actually analyzing the linguistic characteristics of poor catspeak. As always, I prefer the no-nonsense literal interpretation. With that in mind, here you go!

… did you know that all of Kevin Rose’s submissions to Digg.com end up making it to the front page? Over the past year, he has submitted an average of just under one article every two days, and every single one of these has been Dugg to the top. Gee, the founder of Digg.com coincidentally is 100% successful when making submissions to his ‘corruption-free’ site. What a surprise! Most Diggers probably have at best a 10% success rate. I won’t even bother spelling this out further. So much for new, democratic and dynamic communities of the Web 2.0 revolution!

One of the upshots of having my article on Digg.com scams and corruption posted on Associated Content is: people can go and Digg the article! Eight Diggs so far – not bad for a post that bashes Digg.

So, if you’re sick and tired of coming up with a fake e-mail address to sign up for new stuff, then you probably want to try Guerrilla Mail. This site gives you a free disposable e-mail address so you don’t have to waste your time either (1) filling in fake Yahoo or GMail profiles each time you want to sign up for some page that sucks or (2) worrying about spam filling your real inbox up with spam and ads for Viagra. A free and fast solution to signups for sites that sux, without feeling like you wasted a perfectly good e-mail address.

Well, this blog just sucks! So, it should come as no surprise to you all, dear readers, that it has been submitted to Blogger’s Choice Awards under the following categories:
Vote now for the Worst Blog of All Time or me as the Most Obnoxious Blogger
Meanwhile, if you haven’t already, I just recently signed up for MyBlogLog so you should go ahead and join my community of suxage! I’d like to give a shout out to BenSpark and Bulletproofsoul, who have both voted for me and who both have very engaging (though radically different) blogs.
