It’s an article written by one of my friends and I did the first digg. In just 2 hours, it received over 400 diggs and made to the homepage of digg.com. Fortunately it’s on sitepoint so none of our own sites were crippled in the Digg Effect.

Many added me as their friends on Digg today. It just feels awesome!
Updated: :( Turns out 90% of those who added me as digg friends are spammers just like I was once upon a time, though I rarely shouted around…..lol

My friend has a blog that got Digg’d :(
It cost him £900 to cope with the popularity that followed…its paying off now though which I suppose is a good thing.
How would DreamHost servers cope with the Digg effect?
I am not really familiar about the effect of Digg in a website but I have digged several articles that are awesome, informative or sometimes fun to read. And since you mentioned that you have made dig homepage, I will dig it too :)

Nope, the traffic isn’t sent to dreamhost but to sitepoint.com.
