Racking my brain to fill up this weeks blog schedule with a big hole for Monday, I turn to Digg, that great arbiter of what people like on the web. In eager anticipation because its a big internet world out there with millions searching and Digging exceptional bits of information, I enter the letters I n s p I r a t I o n and wait expectantly.
I have to say in explanation that I am new to Digg. But I know the buzz. Digg is great. Digg identifies the best items floating around the web and shares them with all the Diggers. And I know when you are a blogger, it is your goal to be dugg by Digg. I am still waiting for my recognition as I develop my blogging muscles and toil in the background but I remain confident that my turn will come when I am good enough. My Digg numbers will someday be sky-high.
Now back to my screen as the top items categorized as inspiration by Digg flash before my eyes.
