It drove thousands of visitors to my blog in a matter of hours, and I didn’t even make it to the front page. While Digg tends to favor geeky, tech, or science related news, you don’t need to have a masters from MIT to write for the Digg crowd. The Wolf Howl blog has two very interesting posts on Digg - one about the Digg userbase representing the perfect storm of mavens and connectors, and another with some tips on how to write to help get your non-tech blog dugg. Another tip for Digg - there is a feature that let’s you “blog this story” onto your blog. Doing so places a link to your blog in the right hand column of the Digg story. Doing this alone will help to bring hundreds of visitors to your blog. As long as you are providing valuable content, some of those visitors will grab your feed, bookmark your blog, or make a mental note to return. Incremental steps like this over a period of time equate to thousands of visitors daily. [...]

It is definitely required reading...and I have been pleasantly surprised after being a little bit disappointed with Blink myself (though I had pretty high expectations from how often Gladwell is referred too) Doin’ the same…and planning to finish up.

I don't think it is as good as Tipping Point, but it is still definitely worth the read. I will also be at WMW-PubCon... definitely excited to see Gladwell. Have you read Blink, yet?
