DIGG'IN MOOLAH 

Wow. $2.8million in funding goes to Digg.com. This one of Kevin Rose's babies. He co-presents the diggnation podcast with Alex Albrecht, another ex-G4 TechTV guy (we never had this channel, but I used to download it)

Contratulations! I can see more beers arriving on the next diggnation show! Expect plenty of talk about this on 'twit'.

STARTUP IDEAS 

Wise words from Paul Graham about startups:

"I can think of several heuristics for generating ideas for startups, but most reduce to this: look at something people are trying to do, and figure out how to do it in a way that doesn't suck."

Also, according to this: I'm an ANIMAL!!! RARRR!!! Read me roar!

And one more quote from this which I can relate to:

"In a technology startup, which most startups are, the founders should include technical people. During the Internet Bubble there were a number of startups founded by business people who then went looking for hackers to create their product for them. This doesn't work well. Business people are bad at deciding what to do with technology, because they don't know what the options are, or which kinds of problems are hard and which are easy. And when business people try to hire hackers, they can't tell which ones are good. Even other hackers have a hard time doing that. For business people it's roulette."
