How convenient that the search function is broken… That was how I was finding stories after they stopped appearing on the front page.

We have moved on. Meetup.com is where the action is right now.

You are right that there aren't as many RP stories submitted to Digg nowaday. The search is all messed up too, even my stories that made the front page don't show up. His overall Internet numbers are still growing though. I think folks have also taken to other methods and are busy attending Meetups and events. They still stop by Digg, as evidenced by the 3,200 Diggs, but just don't submit as many stories. Plus, I noticed that some of the sites got knocked out of Google blog rankings so perhaps the reduction in traffic to their sites induced the folks to pursue those other methods.</p> <p>I just got renewed today, Republican so I can vote for RP in the caucuses. I have no landline that I answer and have no cell phone, so I'll never show up in any polls except the ones on the Internet and the ones that really matter.</p> I had an RP story go popular within several hours yesterday, and have gotten nearly 3200 diggs for the Federal Reserve bill.
