Following my banning from Digg, I decided to do a little 'digging' of my own, and in the process I've stumbled across some interesting information.

Here's an interesting "how to" comment posted on a blog post titled "How to be a dirty digger". Clearly illustrated how someone could get you banned from Digg. You could call it "How to get your competitors banned by Digg in 3 easy steps".

I've also learnt that a "Digg Mafia" exists. The conspiracy theories are gaining strength, not to mention credence! Apparently the Digg Mafia are going to cost creator of Digg, Kevin Rose, millions. The post at Techtites is an interesting read, but perhaps the comments that follow are far more interesting. It appears that there is quite a bit of PDA tossing going on there, as nerds on both sides wage war.

A list of some of the higher profile bans that have taken place recently, which have probably led to the Boycott Digg campaign.

Look for my exciting expose, "Why Digg traffic is dead traffic" in the very near future.
