DirtyD diffused
Someone sent me a link to DirtyD.com. The Web site is based on people sending frivolous pictures of their friends posed in comprimising positions. The tone of the Web site is much like Perez Hilton. The creators of the site make nasty and quite snippy comments of their "posers."
I know this has been blogged about already. But when I went to tour the site I thought about our reading for this week: Diffusion of Innovation. This Web site is a perfect example of how an innovation diffuses into society and when it's adopted by a great number of people it explodes. What has also been an "adopting explosion" is the pretentious gossiping of those like Perez Hilton and "Gossip Girl." DirtyD proudly brags that it in its recent conception it has had over 500,000 hits.
I guess Big D is trying to stay with the trends. ¶ posted by Anonymous at 10:11 PM •
