if andy said it, it must be true

Filed under: it's just some coverage — muhammad saleem @ 8:35 pm

i was pleasantly surprised when a friend told me that digg number 1 submitter andy (mrbabyman) had given me a shout out on his twitter,

Wow. Mu Saleem is just burnin’ up the Digg FP recently! At this rate, we’ll have a new #1 submitter very soon. Go man, Go!

it’s great to see that diggers aren’t threatened by each other and just want to see good content promoted on digg.
