I just wrote about Ron Paul being Censored by Google and posted my article up on digg. Then about 30 minutes later, I start getting server 500 errors from Digg.com when I visited their site.
I checked with my co-workers and they all COULD get to digg. I think digg decided to censor me by blocking my access to digg.com because digg is tired of all the Ron Paul related articles. It most certainly can not be a coincidence that I was the only one in the office with these issues could it be?
I have two images I would like to submit as my proof that digg was in fact targeting me in a cruel act of censorship.
The first is the error message I was getting:
And the second is a photo taken with my iPhone of my computer (the one I used to submit the original offending article to digg on) and a co-workers computer. You can clearly see that my co-workers was able to get to digg while mine was not!
Lets NOT stand for this uncalled for censorship by digg! Digg my story up and lets call digg out!

Its finally confirmed that Google has a political bias and has been censoring results for Ron Paul. Using Google’s own numbers and comparing them against the same searches against Yahoo it is clear that Google is actively censoring search results for Ron Paul keywords.
Take a look at the data:
We even have photographic proof that Yahoo loves Ron Paul more that Google.
In summary Google things that Ron Paul suck 50% more often while Yahoo thinks that Ron Paul rocks 20% more often.
Come on Google we all thought you ‘Did No Evil’. How can you be censoring the most popular politician on the Interwebs?
Is this a conspiracy on the part of Google? Has Google joined the ranks of the Main Stream Media? Or is it simply that Yahoo provides ‘better’ search results when your interested in Ron Paul?

Comcast is rolling out a new guide service for their Digital and DVR cable boxes. The previous Microsoft one was plagued with errors so they decided to roll out a new one. I personally do not like the new guide at all, but thats a different blog post.
So.. How do you save that $19 I promissed? Well just call 1-800-COMCAST (1-800-266-2278) and enter 1-1-2 in the tele-prompt menus and you will be directed to an operator. When the operator answers tell him/her that your Comcast box upgraded its guide and that your not happy with it. Tell her that you were NOT notified that this change was going to happen. Do not be rude or angry just ask for a rebate on your current month service for you inconvenience. 
The key to this is that you must be polite. All the Comcast operators have been trained on how to handle customers who call with regard to this new menu. They are told that they can give you a rebate on your service…. so its yours to be had…. just make the call.

The first four hands-on reviews of Apple’s new wonder phone came out yesterday. The critical consensus? Buy the amazing device, if you can afford it. We gave scores out of ten — in ten categories. The number was determined by the strength of a reviewer’s language. “Beautiful” was worth 10 points; and “pokey” only 2, for instance. All four reviewers were fans, and the doyen of the group, Walt Mossberg, gave the highest total score, 81 across all ten categories, out of a maximum possible of 100. The average score for the iPhone? 76.75, brought down above all by the sluggishness of AT&T’s data network.
