    I am a big fan of Digg and I read it all the time, constantly. Recently when I visit the site I get a problem that I have always ran into but just not as bad as recently. If I click on a story, the site has been taken down for bandwidth reasons. The common response from the Digg community is “Get this Greasmonkey extension or Firefox plugin HA! ur so pwnd!!1″ but that doesn’t quite work when the mirrors do not have it backed up or if the site has javascript or flash that is required to see what the article is about.

What about new users? Does this mean that if new Digg users want to use Digg they have to download a bunch of applications to surf Digg or will the “503 Service Unavailable” message scare them off?

    In this video I picked two stories at random from the Digg. There is nothing Digg could do to fix this and this would require web hosts to get rid of their outrageous bandwidth fees and limits, which are a scam anyway.
