Hey check this out:

For those of you who aren't familiar with digg.com, it's a news / social aggregator site where the users "digg" stories, effectively promoting them to the front page for others to view, and comment.

Check it out, read the comments.

My damn computer doesn't have sound =(

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that thats the "9/11 victim thats somehow going to be found in water" video

If so, I feel I should point out that I relayed that story
to a guy I work with.
He then pointed out that you can find water everywhere.
Which is true, and I'm sure why Browne chose it.

But get this, HE WAS DEFENDING HER!!!

He was actualy saying that she's probably right because there was most likely water somewhere in the twin towers!!!

At that point I told him my lunch break was up and I should get back to work. Figured it was either that, or listen to such persistant gullibility and risk my head exploding

Yep, that's the one. There are a few comments on digg.com (and youtube where the video is hosted) that are trying to defend her, but they are in the minority.

A few people (including me) have posted links on digg.com to http://www.stopsylviabrowne.com/, so RSL's site should be getting a lot more hits. Let's hope it survives the digg effect. :)

I think it might help with the google ranking too.

...

What do you have, a TRS-80???

There should at least be an output jack for headphones. Of course, it being a work computer I could see why those may not be allowed.

I saw this on Digg yesterday - it got Dugg really fast, I think to the top twenty in 5 hours. Good to see the links to StopSylviaBrowne in the comments section.

Since opening its doors to the public, the site has been averaging around 2,100 "page loads" per day.

Yesterday, it got a little over 7,300 page loads, the highest daily total so far. The previous high was a little over 5,600 when the site was briefly mentioned at the bottom of Mr. Randi's commentary on December 1st.

I think it might help with the google ranking too.Hey, it couldn't hurt!
