Dude i am so fucking intensely excited about creating a Goggle with smart people. How many smart people will we need? What kind of smart do they have to be? I know some dudes down the way, they're not into books or stuff like that but they love making googles (they have made many).

I am totally in for it Vijaymv_in . Lets change the world with smart folks.

Completely agree w/ Nick! "In 100 words" is a hands down favorite of mine on Valleywag. Keep it up!

]]> <![CDATA[How Digg's algorithm works -- the 100-word version]]> You've left out one thing.

The moderators have a huge say as to what can make it to the front page.

I've seen posts with 300+ diggs and 90+ comments never make it to the front page. And I've seen diggs with hardly any diggs and no comments get make it.

They have either tweaked certain types of stories from getting to the front page or they have made the algorithm so that only mods can allow certain stories to make the front page.

Then, if you mention this, you get banned.

I know this firsthand :p
