I'm back! The fires are extinguished, the cables replugged, and the OS rebooted. So let's return to yesterday's lost topic: Digg.

Digg censored a couple posts, pissed off a lot of users, and felt their wrath. Here's the scoop.

Did ya hear about Coachella? It's this super-popular music festival out in California, and the past few years it's become a distinctly Hollywood event too.

Hope ya had a good weekend, now let's get down to business shall we? Today there's talk about democratic presidential underdog Mike Gravel. While he may have been in stealth mode prior to last week's Democratic debate, he's now riding online momentum into the spotlight.

Today everyone's all abuzz about Marilee Jones, the former Dean of Admissions at MIT, who pulled quite the subterfuge on her former employer. And yes, that pun was intended, and you know you loved it. Word on the web is, Marilee lied about her college education on her original job application back in 1979, and it don't take no nerdy MIT math whiz to calculate that's.... ummm..... HELLA years.

More developments in the tragic shooting at Virginia Tech on Monday. Everyone's talking about the message scrawled on Cho Seung-Hui's arm: "Ismail Ax." No one knows exactly what it means or why it was on his arm, but everyone's got a theory, and the prevailing one is that its a Muslim allusion to the story of Abraham and his son Ismail. And of course, Muslim identity is a whole other can of worms. There's heated discussion, so listen up.
