<p><a href='http://www.chrisfinke.com/files/2007/05/digg_top_1000_20070523.csv' title='Top 1000 Diggers as of 2007/05/23'>Top 1000 Diggers as of 2007/05/23</a></p>
<p>In other Digg news, the last 13 stories from this blog that have been submitted to Digg have all been buried.  This includes posts about TubeStop, Twits Like Me, the Digg Top Users list, ScribeFire, and Wii-specific <a href="http://www.bumpnetworks.com">Web design</a>.  (Contrast <a href="http://digg.com/search?s=efinke&#038;submit=Search&#038;section=news&#038;type=url&#038;area=all&#038;sort=new">this search page</a> with <a href="http://digg.com/search?s=efinke&#038;submit=Search&#038;section=news&#038;search-buried=1&#038;type=url&#038;area=all&#038;sort=new">this search page.</a>)  This means one of three things:</p>
<ol>
<li>Everything I write is lame.</li>
<li>There is a group of Digg users specifically burying content from my site.</li>
<li>eFinke.com is on some sort of Digg blacklist and is being automatically buried by the system.</li>
</ol>
<p>I'm leaning towards #2, but I don't know how they would track submissions from my site since <a href="http://www.chrisfinke.com/2007/04/20/buggy-rss-feeds-at-digg/">the only way to do that has been broken for months.</a></p>

I've optimized my blog (and thus my Greencode Wordpress theme) for browsing on the Nintendo Wii.  So if you read my blog on the Wii, it will look like this:

digg_url = "http://digg.com/gaming_news/Optimizing_Your_Website_for_the_Wii";

<script src="http://digg.com/api/diggthis.js"></script>
</div>
<p>I've optimized my blog (and thus my <a href="http://www.chrisfinke.com/wordpress/themes/greencode/">Greencode Wordpress theme</a>) for browsing on the <a href="http://www.wii.com/">Nintendo Wii</a>.  So if you read my blog on the Wii, it will look like this:</p>
<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.chrisfinke.com/files/2007/02/wii-on-tv.png" alt="My website on the Wii" /></div>
<p>It was pretty easy, and you can do it too, by following these two simple steps:</p>
<p>1. Create a Wii-friendly stylesheet. This is similar to creating a mobile-friendly stylesheet, and it involves enlarging the text, removing superfluous crap, and just making your site easier to read from a distance.  You can see the stylesheet I created <a href="/wp-content/themes/greencode/wii-style.css">here</a>.</p>
<p>2. Serve the Wii stylesheet to Wii users.  The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_agent#Example_user-agent_strings">user-agent string</a> of the Wii will be something like <em>Opera/9.00 (Nintendo Wii; U; ; 1309-9; en)</em>, so in PHP, you can accompish this like so:<br />
<code><br />
if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], "Wii;") !== false){<br />
[... wii stylesheet ...]<br />
} else {<br />
[... regular stylesheets ...]<br />
}<br />
</code></p>
<p>And just for fun, I also added an "Optimized for the Nintendo Wii" watermark in the top-right corner and enabled the Wii stylesheet for anyone who adds "?wii=1" to the end of a URL.  For example, <a href="http://www.chrisfinke.com/2007/02/22/optimizing-your-website-for-the-wii/?wii=1">here is the Wii-friendly version of this post</a>.</p>

Oh, and her card to me included the phrase "If you were a booger, I'd pick you first."</p>
