The 6 offer vaio site hes talking about is obviously from nuitech. The $1000 visa he got in place of a plasma is from YFdirect. His guide is directly against the tos of nuitech. And a lot of his information is irrevelant due to Nuitechs name change (now its Net Radiance) and its new tos.

BTW, there are a few comments linking to FiPG on that digg topic. Somebody should submit FiPG as the REAL guide to getting free ipods, plasmas, etc...

I did it myself. I don't have much of a rep on digg, but here's the story if anyone cares to usher in a whole new wave of noobs. -)

Needs more diggs. I am generally not one for self-promotion but there's little question FiPG is more useful than the site that hit digg's front page today.

screw digg. i don't have an account, so I'm not going to "digg" it.

For those of you aren't sure what this is about, here's a quick summary.

[bcb827e40cd]Digg[/bcb827e40cd][=http//digg.com][bcb827e40cd]Digg[/bcb827e40cd] is one of the most popular sites on the web. The stories there aren't selected by editors; users promote or bury stories by "digging" them.

Earlier today, [bcb827e40cd]a half-assed overview[/bcb827e40cd][=http//www.cleverdude.com/articles/finances/how-i-get-laptops-and-plasma-tvs-for-free/][bcb827e40cd]a half-assed overview[/bcb827e40cd] of freebie sites hit the front page. That site is undoubtedly receiving heavy traffic today--and a lot of eager newbies that would probably benefit from FiPG's established community and trading module.

I've always thought FiPG deserved to hit Digg's front page, but seeing an ad-ridden blog hit the front page first rekindled my interest.

You need a digg account in order to digg a story. If you don't already have one, [bcb827e40cd]click here to register[/bcb827e40cd][=http//digg.com/register][bcb827e40cd]click here to register[/bcb827e40cd].

If you've had a good experience at FiPG, Digg it.

If you're EatChex89, Suck it.

There's a chance digg's algorithm will discount our votes because so many of us are brand new to digg.

Nevertheless, +karma to those of you who are digging it (I am following along)

We only got 17 diggs, so I doubt it was us. Most non-FiPG Digg users appear to consider the story spam anyway, which I should have anticipated.

Some day soon I'll find a way to get a semi-popular blog to cover FiPG. If somebody else submits the blog post to Digg, we should get a good influx of new users.

No one else find it funny that a worker for one of those sites went on and posted on how he works for RewardsGateway.com and doesn't know how anyone can get around funding a carloan but if you do congrats,
