Digg Office small

 

Office Snapshots, a blog documenting well offices of cool companies recently took a tour of the lair of digg. Digg.com is one of my favorite sights and I probably check it a wee bit too often. I am also a bit of a nut for checking out offices at cool companies. I try to impart a little bit of what I find into my office, though often on my own dime, and if it can be done for a dime that is even better! I can’t add much here other than that you should check out the full lineup of Digg Office pics at Office Snapshots.

Would You Digg It?

The new cyber thriller, Untraceable, coming out January 25th features a Killer who has hooked his victims up to a device which kills them quicker based on the number of users visiting the site which runs a streaming video of the unfortunate soul. The FBI warns the public to stay away from the site and BOOM, the victim is dead in a snap. While this situation is far out I wonder what the Digg Effect would be on this type of scenario. You can leave your thoughts in the Poll below.

Would you visit a site if the additional visit/bandwidth killed someone quicker?

Personally I think the Digg community would be too interested to stay away but some enterprising user will use some web hackery to grab the video and put up a mirror which would either go unregistered or register as one user on the “death machine”. From the knowledge I have seen in the Digg community if such an event would really happen I wouldn’t be surprised to see several users deputized after they assisted the search for said bad guy.
