It’s a typical submission for digg’s World and Business section, but if you notice the tone of the comments, it’s less than typical for digg. They range from bipartisan, reasonable arguments to neo-conservation, ad hominem attacks on Al Gore. All of this is fine. Digg is a democratic system and people are free to post and comment how and what they wish. But there’s a problem. The article can’t be found anywhere, except for a direct link. It’s not in Digg’s search and even though it was promoted to the homepage, it never got there.

Now, it’s fine if the article was buried by users as soon as it hit the front page and now it’s gone forever. However, shouldn’t digg be more transparent and show buried stories in a special section of that name or at least put some indicators on the page itself. This isn’t the first time I’ve seen something like this, and I doubt it’ll be the last. So if you agree I ask you to send requests to digg, nice ones, and ask them to change this. If you don’t agree please add a comment below, again nice ones, and lets find a concensus for this debate.

I’ve watched this video so many times that I can’t count. Not only is the song beautiful but Lisa in an amazingly gorgeous woman. It’s easy to get lost in her eyes. Click for the HQ version of the video.
