ehh, i'm not too big on these "vote for us plz" type things lately, but digg is a pretty large & notorious website, and it's so new you guys could really have an impact in our early ranking by getting in there and "digging" :) thanks!

Done and Done!

I tried listing our show, but it's all wonky and I couldn't get it to show up like OLR did. Weird!

Yeah it's there...I saw that you dugg it. (thanks BTW) I'm not seeing any episode listings and out RSS feed & website listing is messed up.

It's prob just a bug is the new system is all. I've sent an email to them about it.

I did my part. I know that we do have the listener base to crack the top 5.

I think this should be part of the front page also. Its a perfect opportunity to get the show started on the right foot for the new year.

Hmm, although I can't see us doing a news article on the basis of asking for votes for this (that would be a bit much, in my opinion)... I do think it would be appropriate to maybe replace one of the directory listings on the right hand side that show up with the digg link instead. There are some things I do like about the digg listing, such as comments on individual episodes, and the fact that you can't bury podcasts like you can normal articles (that would just generate too much unnecessary negativity for all podcasters).

I'll talk to Jamie/Loki about it, although usually they trust my judgement when it comes to the "podcasting scene" and the various directories, etc, since I believe I follow it the closest of us.

p.s. thank you for "doing your part" :)

Skie, have you looked at PopCurrent? It's very much like Digg (more media focused) and we've recieved a fair number of hits after listing our episodes over there.

FYI, you can now get a quick link to our Digg page from the front page of the site, we replaced one of the previously listed directories with the Digg link.

Your support, as always, is mucho appreciated! :D

Friendly reminder that digg's podcast policy says that you have to stay "active" by digging at least something once every two weeks for your vote to count. So if you don't remember logging into the site since digging us, head on back over there and give a digg to an OLR episode, another favorite indie podcast you listen to, or a general news story that catches your eye so we can get your vote back (you will not have to re-digg OLR as I understand it)

Thanks again as always :D

Oh, that's just plain silly. Well actually, it isn't, since it prevents people like me. :P

Although we've tumbled to page 2 because too many of our diggers didn't stay active with the site, I did want to mention that it looks like Podcast Diggs are out of beta now so everyone should be able to see our entry on the site and be able to listen to us on there as well.

This also serves as a good excuse for me to remind ya'll to digg it... and other great indie casts as well. Tee hee! :)
