  "It could be a core Cassandra problem, something they added, or completely unrelated to Cassandra; But the internet doesn't care. It's drama at its finest" Digg made a big deal about their move to Cassandra (just as Digg's move to Cassandra was used to legitimize Cassandra, and by correlation NoSQL, among a wide range of zealots), going back over a year. The thing about talking big like that is that it often comes back to bite you in the ass if things don't go well. If Digg quietly released a new version that worked more reliably and provided a better experience, they would have been in a perfect position to pontificate on technology.
