If a guy who couldnt write a line of code or build an html page was able to get a startup up and running, raise funds, create one of the top destination site on the net, changed the way we consume news, and be worth millions only a few months after having an idea...then Bravo to him. You got paid, and noone had a gun to your head to do the work.

The beautiful part of this is that you can always go ahead and give us a new way to share news. Digg just scratched the surface.

It might seem a little too ranting if you are unaware of who ojbyrne is but this will help bring more light into the picture. http://owenbyrne.com/resume/

I do respect your criticism, though I think it's a bit hyperbolic. While no one held a gun to my head, I was repeatedly misled by people who I believed, mistakenly, had at least a small amount of integrity.

I am always reminded of the classic Hugh McLeod cartoon: http://www.gapingvoid.com/Moveable_Type/archives/zzzzazzdggg...

Perhaps I'm in that bottom part of the pyramid, but the top section is well populated too.

As with most things Kevin, it was built by digg employees. During their off time of course (nudge, nudge, wink, wink).
