What’s the worse thing you can utter to Nerd? I mean what is the most terrifying, horrific, moment in a Nerds’s life? Jar Jar Binks.

I’d rather dance naked to “We Built This City” in a crowded mall than see Jar Jar Binks in another Star Wars movie.


So, what’s the worse thing you can do to a Recruiter? Redirect candidates from their job posting or company career page to another site.

Being that I make a living off Nerd herding, I don’t want to rely on paid resume searches, and job postings.

I’m trying to save some company bucks by Tweeting some of my job postings.

According to the Mashable.com, the Digg URL shortner now directs your Tweets to their own site. Can you dig what I’m saying? They are no longer going to direct traffic to your job posting, and instead your URL will post to Digg.

This is a bad deal for us IT Recruiters. It’s like watching Jar Jar Binks dancing naked while singing “We Built This City”.

Make sure you don’t use the Digg API tool while Tweeting any jobs postings.

BTW, We Built This City was a number 1 hit from Starship in 1985
