Oh well, I've submitted an email to them as well, trying again can't hurt :) And Visual jQuery Magazine is DEFINITELY worthy of a front page article. I can't think of a reason why they wouldn't want to run with it. Justin ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

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.

Re: [jQuery] Digg push
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. -- YehudaOn 9/25/06, David Olinsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Yehuda, next time put a combination of 'Most Amazing Video Ever!','Ruby', 'Free', 'Ajax' and 'OSX' and you'll never move off the frontpage :)Again, nice work on the magazine.---DavidQuoting Yehuda Katz < [EMAIL PROTECTED]>:> 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.

Re: [jQuery] Digg push
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. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Dan Atkinson Sent: Monday, September 25, 2006 11:01 AM To: discuss@jquery.com Subject: Re: [jQuery] Digg push I should point out that, after Digg's recent changes, it'll quite easily spot 'cartels' which regularly vote on the same stories.
