Kevin Rose, founder of Digg.com, presented at The Future of Web Apps Summit in San Francisco last month, giving a demo and sharing the story behind Digg's launch. (note, he made $60 million dollars in 18 months with digg.com)
In 2003, Kevin had a big idea. He came to Elance to post a project and look for a PHP programmer, selected Owen Byrne (Elance username: permafrost) and worked with him to build the initial product. Eventually, Owen joined Digg full-time.
Today, Digg is one of the most successful and visited websites, Owen Byrne is Digg's Senior Software Engineer, and
