Update: Diggers and other respected people, please excuse me for submitting this terrible senseless and useless story. I underestimated you, digg.com, and social networks in general.

Underestimating Digg, Or 100 Most Popular Words on Digg

One day (two days ago, as far as I remember), I asked myself a question: «What are the most popular topics on digg.com? Sex? War? $$$ per oil barrel?».

I downloaded all 571 pages of popular stories for last year with cUrl (there were more than 8000 stories), parsed them to extract titles and diggs, and processed the titles with a simple PHP script.

[ See the results ]
