This week's BusinessWeek article on Kevin Rose claims that his company, Digg.com, is headquartered "above the grungy offices of the SF Weekly." However, San Francisco Bay Guardian Editor and Publisher Bruce Brugmann notes in a blog post that Digg is actually "a good tenant on the third floor of the Guardian building." Although Brugmann takes offense that his paper was mistaken for SF Weekly, he devotes more words to the building being called "grungy." Brugmann has written BusinessWeek asking for a correction, and will provide updates on his "Bruce Blog."
In addition to having the much-discussed date of 6/6/06, yesterday was election day in California, but the San Francisco Bay Guardian's endorsements and coverage weren't available online for part of the day. Visitors to sfbg.com instead received an error message. On Daily Kos, blogger WonkyDonkey suggested that Republicans might have been behind the crash: "Am I just being too paranoid? Or is such paranoia well-justified given the measures we have seen Republicans will go to in order to win elections and subvert democracy?" The staff at the Bay Guardian quickly managed to get an election-day blog up on the site, but according to a post by Executive Editor Tim Redmond, the cause of the service failure was still unclear. "Maybe someone local who didn't want our endorsements available" was behind it, he wrote, or "maybe it's just one of those things; maybe it's ... SATAN!"
