Beat the Digg.

One of my favorite (or at least the one I watch on a weekly basis) podcast is Diggnation. It is a weekly podcast that features commentary about the social news site digg.com.

Well, every week they hold the newest video version of the podcast from being downloaded by the public an extra few days. Only the subscribers can view it. $5 bucks a month and I don’t want to pay.
So, since I am 1337.. I hacked the system. Okay, not really, but this is how you can download it a few days earlier than everyone else. So simple.

Copy the link to viewable podcast from the diggnation.com site.

Ex:  http://videos.revision3.com/diggnation/0075/diggnation–0075–2006-12-08–large.h264.mov

Okay, real simple.. the next podcast that we can’t view is number 76 and it was recorded on the 14th of December.

Change it to this:

http://videos.revision3.com/diggnation/0076/diggnation–0076–2006-12-14–large.h264.mov

I don’t even know why I posted this. Hopefully you can find some use out of it.

    Sssh. I had to make a special pickup tonight. GAh, I’ve said to much already.

    Sears was having a special on long underwear. (With footies)

    I don’t think Kevin Rose would mind. He’s rich enough now.

    leetspeak. wow.

    FWIW, I think the digg casts are pretty lame for the most part. I WILL give props to Kevin for landing a hot suicide girl as a girlfriend, so whatever there.

    In regards to GTG’s WOW student:

    AEreola. Spell it right, bud.

    See ya in a few days!

    I think Kevin is dating LaLa from the Tiki Bar podcast. Sad that I know this.

    Actually, I think I got it right. Google it.

    I’ve tried to watch their videos, but there’s way too much pointless banter and not enough ’stuff.’ I don’t know who that dude on the left is (the non-Kevin Rose dude), but he seems more like he’s playing a character of himself rather than just acting natural. It’s a little distracting, along with all of the focus on alcohol-related beverages. That and the few I saw were like half an hour, which is about 25 minutes longer than my attention span for podcasts.

    But I love digg and go there waaaay too often. The revamped site they released this week is really nice.
