Diggnation challenge: can you handle it?

At the end of my last post I challenge the readers of this blog that if they form their own Alliance for Better Gas and document it on video for one week. Then feature one of the videos on the blog. Now that sound like a fair deal for some people who are into this viral video stuff. But one day I though up something big that I think may shake this blog to the core. I am officially challenging my favorite podcast “Diggnation” to try and form an Alliance and document it on their show. It’s not only a challenge but an experiment to see if these Internet hot shots have what it takes to save gas and their dignity in this time of high gas prices.




If you live in an Internet cave or heard about the show but didn’t bother to watch on your iPod or computer here’s a history lesson. Diggnation is a podcast dedicated to covering popular stories from the user submitted news site Digg.com. With the comical cursing style of Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht, along with their invisible sidekicks David Prager, and Hippie Glen. I started watching these guys ever since got my iPod for Christmas. It’s a nice show, but not the kind of show grandma would want to see. Or should I say hear, since there is a lot of cursing and may cause old people to die of a stroke and or a heart attack. They live in California, so this experiment is perfect for them. Since the price of gas is more then the rest of America. So that said do Kevin and Alex have what it take to save money on gas. I don’t know, you never know if they try or fail, whatever you choose.

On the other hand if they like they can make this challenge more of a competition between the two host. And make it six weeks then originally plan for the time in the video experiment. That way better results can be made. And same thing goes to everyone else who is interested. Also if they don't except this challenge then they will be forever label as a sissy. (and I plan on using that label in at gay way too)

Next post will be off the topic of gas, but is entertaining if you to read it.
