Been a bit crazy lately ...
We launched Dwigger on the weekend and it's gone kind of nuts.
First we got a great write-up on Mashable. About 12 hours after that we hit the front page of Digg and Delicious. Our shared VPS completely buckled under the load. We're ordering a new stand alone box to rival the Sift's now.
The most surreal thing though is an article in Today's Mx magazine in Brisbane. MX is a free newspaper that all the train and bus commuters read on their slog home. There's a nice review article on Dwigger in big bold letters "DWIGGER IS BIGGER THAN TWO". So I'm in this crowded train- and all these people are squished in around me reading the article! The Internet is a big and small world. Sometimes it feels like a big prank.

NicoleBeeCongratumalations! I've never really caught on to the twitter thing at all, I guess not having a mobile anything other than my laptop doesn't help, but I'm glad its been successful all the same! I felt bad about not participating in the alpha testing, but it seems like it's doing fine!
RyjkyjUPVOTE!
my15minutes^ and you know what's the most fun, on there?

deathcowWhen you make hundreds of millions of dollars, rescue me from America.
swampgirlOMG Dag that is great. Well deserved. Congrats Dag and Lucky. After you've picked up DC... swing by and get us in Indy too

We'll be building a network of subterranean tunnels departing from Wasilla, Indiana etc. They all end though, at Currumbin Beach. A beautiful little yellow sand beach on the gold coast where we can form our Sift Colony.
swampgirl^now you're talkin. I can grow veggies like it ain't no body's business. We'll have to get DC and MGR to hunt then eh? My husband will lend MGR his (never used) hunting suit. Oh wait.. coast? Maybe just fish then.
Dag, you'll be too busy sitting somewhere lookin wise or something.
I suggest we build a series of monolithic dome homes.
swampgirlI immediately included MGR... we need experience security to keep the rift raft out.

Of course, as your leader, it's important that my genome is preserved through the ages. I will be taking "right of the first night"
