Dan Kuck-Alvarez So here's an issue with social networks in general. My digg newsfeed said it was a feed of my personal history. I.e., items that I dugg. But it recently started including things that I did not digg. And since I had it public, they were showing up here on my profile. So I deleted it (which I consider a success of the software).
