cool. that show was cool. i wasn't as trashed as i thought i was going to be, be and my buddies went to a bar before the show...
we should all so a diggnation meet up some where in the city...
this is me before the show... no Diggnation shirt on either (but i did have a Digg shirt Kevin gave that i lost that night) :(
*link*
Yeah, who knows. I guess that video he took will forever be lost in a vault of his personal collections. I'm a little saddened by that, I wanted to see how I did in front of camera. Haha.
I didn't drink at all. Had class the next day. Wish I could've though. Would've attempted to get with Kevin...maybe next time.
Anyway, I'd be down for a meet up in SF, I feel like I'd like Digg kids. I'm in Stockton going to school but I make it out to the city quite often. I'm going on the 23rd actually for a tattoo consult!
Anyway, thanks for being one of the only two people to reply to my message and for not being the one to bag on me for not wearing a Diggnation shirt. I still hella like the show...I just have my own taste in fashion.
"There is a lot more to Diggnation then drinking and sex, its rarely ever sex...
I get what the kid was saying too, sometimes the cussing and the rants take away from they are trying to say. On the other hand sometimes they are really funny and make sense. Either way Diggnation is about the Digg community, tech, world, and general geek news brought to you by 2 guys, nothing really to do with sex, yes they do drink, but even that has been dwindling."
", named Tyler I believe, interviewed me before the show. I know it's not important but I didn't know if anyone had seen the video or if they were uploaded somewhere. I know he's staff. It's really silly but I want to see it!
Thanks,
Nila
Oh yeah, this was me at the show that night. In case it helps any. I had fun! I hope to make another show sometime.

Eh, Diggnation is about technology just as much as Top Gear is about cars. It's the overriding theme, but not the reason to keep watching week after week.

This needed another thread. Actually, the following post is so important, I was thinking of making a new thread:
The mic Kevin had is going to pick up the room's audio more than mics from other live shows. A combination of this and the fact that people in the back of the room couldn't hear is why it seemed no one was paying attention. It's likely that other live shows have had the same experience, we just haven't been able to hear it like we could here.

I am disturbed by the call for PG-13nes. The show is not about technology, or news, or digg.com. The show is very much about geeks, alcohol, and bullshitting with your friends. The show is not geared towards quality of information; it's an entertainment program. Without sex, alcohol, and tirades, Diggnation certainly wouldn't be running longer than most television shows have.
If you'd like to keep up on some technology news without beer and awesome ruining your banality, try out www.webbalert.com and sip your Chardonnay.
