Funny how things gain traction with a certain kind of spin. I posted this on Digg with the headline "Leo talks about the Comcast takeover". I think it got like 20 diggs. With the Apple spin it takes off. Funny. Thanks for the update.

I've never heard of this digg thing. Is it any good, or just another /. wannabe?

Digg is run by one of Kevin Rose's buddies. The basic premise is it's like Slashdot except the readers decide what gets posted to the front page. Comander Dickhead is the only one who decides what makes it onto Slashdot. Personally I prefer democracy. Power to the people! :)

yeah good job on the interview it was great. For TLLTS episode 100 we should interview Linus Torvalds :wink: . That would be terrible if Apple had a monopoly on computers. Sure we could install Linux on it but we would still be way over chargered for the Hardware and they automatically install the Mac OS on all the machines. Its good Apple doesn't have a monopoly (although Im not gonna thank Bill Gates for this) :wink:

Digg is actually run by Kevin himself. But yeah, I agree - more power to the people.
