Secret of why Digg is famous

March 4, 2008

Today, I want to try a new service from Digg. So what i need to do is just simple, that is just register to become a member!

When i came to registration form, I found out the Gender has different of what i can say, “Categories”

We know almost all registration forms whether online forms or paper forms only indicate Male and Female only.

But today what i though was completely *broken*!
I think this is unbelievable! And yes they could categorized it in many different of “quotes” and unknown words such as grrrl?

Was that “girl”?

I chose Male of course. I am not intentionally to choose other categories other than Male(If i am female sure i will choose Female as well).

Maybe if there are more member will join Digg other than Male, Female and Homo. Example? Bird.

There are over 10,000 species of birds in the world. About 925 have been seen in the U.S. and Canada. About 1,000 have been seen in Europe. By far the largest concentration of bird species are found in South America. Over 3,200 species have been seen there. In Colombia, Bolivia and Peru the species count for each country tops 1,700. Here are some very general figures for the species count for each continent:

3,200 South America
2,900 Asia
2,300 Africa
2,000 North America (from Panama north + Caribbean)
1,700 Australia + surrounding islands
1,000 Europe
65 Antarctica

Look, Antartica also has popularity of 65 species!!!
If they are joining Digg too, Digg is really the world famous site!

Congratulations to Digg!
To me too! because i have become a member of Digg!

Tagza A New Social Bookmarking Free Just For Everyone

March 3, 2008

Introduction :
The benefits of social bookmarking sites to a blog can never be overstated. Frankly put, if your blog becomes a hit on a social bookmarking site such as Digg, Tagza.com then the potential for your blog to receive thousands and thousands of additional hits is quantified immensely. Yet, there are many bloggers who do not take advantage of social bookmarking sites simply because they are unaware of how these services work. Ok, so let’s take a look at some of the basics of social bookmarking and how they can effectively aid in boosting the traffic to your blog.

Social bookmarking is a spin on the traditional internet feature of bookmarking your favorite web pages. The main difference is that with social bookmarking there is a collective sharing of these bookmarked web pages. That is, you can recommend your bookmarked pages to others within your social bookmarking community and other members can make recommendations to you. As time progressed, added features such as reviews and emailed updates on user bookmarks have been employed by numerous social bookmarking sites to make the experience unique and constantly interesting. New bookmarks often go into internal networking RSS feeds and a bookmark that is truly eye catching can lead to a significant increase in traffic. This is where bloggers have the potential to thrive!
