Digg





Digg is a web site where you can get updates on a lot of different things. Such as gaming, news, lifestyle, sports, technology, and politics. One Example of news you can get on digg is that Call of Duty has changed the way people look at the entertainment industry. Gamers spent over $ 1,200,000,000 in the frist five day's when Call of Duty Black Ops and Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 came out.












Other news that is big on digg is that the Paul "The Truth" Pierce had been fined $15,ooo for throwing an object (gum) into the stands. It is not clear on why he did such a thing, but my partners and I thinks its because he had two personal fouls with eigth mintues left in the first quarter.
