Daily Digger passed a notable milestone yesterday with the its 500th post since the blog began back on August 11, 2008. OK, it is not as momentous an occasion as the magazine’s 50th birthday, which was celebrated a few years ago (in 2006), but it’s pretty cool. We’ve enjoyed serving you on this blog over the past 2 1/2 years, and we look forward to keeping you informed and entertained in the future.
