Can You Digg It?

Kevin Rose of Digg is pretty famous. Well...let's just say that he is what most internet and tech guys want to become one day. Someone who basically owns the world when it comes to having a corner on a huge portion of the people that surf on the internet. He has found the faucets for pouring out internet money so to say. Probably the water company itself.

If you haven't heard of Digg you probably don't have the internet, or you don't use it for anything except e-mail. If you did know aobut it, you probably wouldn't even bother going anywhere else to find the news. Digg is where it is at, and the people that use it vote for what news is important. Well...sort of. They have their quirks there. The crowd has a lot of favorites. Liberals, atheists, and the computer giant Apple. Of course I don't bring any of this up to review Digg. It's simply a waste of time to do so. If you can't figure it out you ahve a long way to go before the internet is useful to you. I mean I could tell you it is a great place to market websites and blogs, but if you can't figure that out...you don't knwo anything about marketing.

The main reason to bring this up is that it Kevin Rose is a great story for people in business. Particularly people that want to work either online, or in some sort of tech/media environment. Inc.com has a sort of homage to Kevin Rose you should check out. Certainly couldn't hurt to read a major success story could it?
