( This post is a verbatim copy of information that was compiled by my friend BoomShake007 from over on www.serenitymovie.org and I've posted it here so that folks can understand why I think promoting 'Verse related articles on Digg is such a good idea.)
We've started a team of diggers to digg articles regarding the 'Verse and BDH related articles. Charity articles ( Browncoat related! ) too.
Please join us. You can write me at followmal@gmail.com and I'll add you to the list and you'll receive emails when there is an article to digg, or you can join at

Late Sunday evening, almost Monday morning shameless bump!
BTW I've been a Digg member for 2 months now. Not one piece of spam. Besides Digging Browncoaty and charity stuff, I've located lots of interesting articles on many different things. Just go to the front page and look around. www.digg.com
