			<description>&lt;p&gt;In my last article about Google possibly punishing Digg  I contrasted Digg versus a niche pligg site, VOIPigg.  And I noted that you might too casually dismiss VOIPigg:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Let&amp;#39;s say you were in the Voice Over IP (VOIP) business and you were writing content around decision making, technology, standards, all that jazz. Which do you think would be better - digg or VOIPigg?  &lt;/p&gt;Then I said:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;It takes the exact same amount of time to submit to both Digg and VOIPigg, so obviously Dig [...]</description>

			<description>&lt;p&gt;Honestly, there are people who would yell at a Scout for helping a little old lady cross the street.  We built the free social networking tool, Digg Friend Finder, to help people use digg more effectively.  We used Digg&amp;#39;s API.  We followed their TOS.  Heck, they could build this functionality into the product if they wanted to, though I am sure they won&amp;#39;t.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;images/floppy%20black%20hat.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Floppy Black Hat&quot; width=&quot;150&quot; align=&quot;left&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Black Hat?
