Sk*rt: Can you Digg it?

Let's face it, Digg -- the user-voted content resource -- is primarily geared towards dudes. Whether this is by design or by coincidence, the Digg community is nonetheless dominated by techo-males. Now I'm sure that there are women out there who care that "Dell quietly drops extended warranty support for Ubuntu" or that "3rd Party iPhone App SDK to Launch at WWDC?", but I certainly don't know them. Get my drift?

For web wandering women -- a.k.a. any chick with a desk job -- who want to read about stuff they are interested in there is now sk*rt.

Sk*rt offers users the opportunity to submit stories for consideration by the style-minded tech-savvy community. Want to know about hip eco-friendly clothes? There's a sk*rt story on the topic. Or if you want some advice on buying yellow summer shoes, sk*rt is the place to go -- after you've gone here, of course!

  • Digg 101 - #10 - Adding a Digg This Button to Your Site Digg 101 - #10 - Adding a Digg This Button to Your Site Play If you have your own site, it pays to get as many eyeballs to glance upon your homepage as possible. Digg makes it easy to leverage the power of its user community by offering Digg This buttons and applets that you can easily drop onto your site. This is the easiest way to get your site to appear on Digg... provided you have something Digg-worthy to offer.
  • Digg 101 - #4 - Setting Your Preferences in Digg Digg 101 - #4 - Setting Your Preferences in Digg Play The Digg homepage is full of content the "diggnation" feels is interesting. You can customize Digg to your liking though by setting your personal media and topic preferences. See more of the Diggs you dig and less of the Diggs you don't.
  • Digg 101 - #7 - Privacy and Your Digg Profile Digg 101 - #7 - Privacy and Your Digg Profile Play As with anything online, it's important to understand privacy settings in Digg. You can set your Digg profile to private or opt to only share information with friends and more.
  • Digg 101 - #6 - Commenting on Digg Stories Digg 101 - #6 - Commenting on Digg Stories Play Comments are too often the great morass of the web. The Digg does a little better than most sites though as the good comments tend to get "dugg" and float to the top and there's less of the "OMG EPIC!!!1!" type comments, thankfully. Add your voice to the mix and get dugg by commenting on Digg postings.

*sigh* Another "OMG, techology is too complicated for us girls so let's talk about clothes and makeup" site. Wow, this is just what girls need. I mean, is it *that* hard to understand what "Dell quietly drops extended warranty support for Ubuntu" means? Really...

sounds like a good idea but begs the question what are women doing on the intranet when they should be in the kitchen?
