Sk*rt: "Digg for Chicks"Authored by Guy Kawasaki on March 24, 2008 - 5:55am.
Today, for example, it pointed to a story about Chloe Marshall, a size sixteen girl who reached the finals of the Miss England contest. (Men: Let me translate: in other words, she's not your typical skinny blonde beauty contestant.) By contrast, over in Digg (what chicks call "Sk*rt for men"), the hot story is "30 Error Messages You Never Want to See." These are three women behind the Sk*rt: Laura Mayes, Gabrielle Blair, and Laurie Smithwick. They have a Truemoresque tale: never met face-to-face until after the site launched, spent a very small sum of money to get it going, and lead very busy lives. (The three of them have a total of eight kids, and all have full-time jobs.)
If you'd like to read very different kinds of stories from the usual
"security problem found in IE," do check out Sk*rt. If you're a man,
you'll impress many women if you do. If you're a woman, shame on you
for having to learn about Sk*rt from a man. Guy Kawasaki This piece was originally published on Guy’s blog How to Change the World and is posted on DMW with the author's permission. Guy’s bio can be viewed here.
