May 16, 2007: iPod Phone vs. Anna Nicole Death. It's a Celebri-spiral Throwdown!

It never ceases to amaze me just how much we love celebrities. Even the wide river of non-gossip bloggers. However, on digg they like tech a whole lot more.

Anna trumped Apple in Google searches, blog posts and news stories by a wide margin. But the iPhone walloped Anna on digg.
