Digg needs a new tech staff

Markus, over at Plenty of Fish, says that Digg needs a new tech staff:

A reader pointed out that digg.com is doing 7 million pageviews and has 75 servers and not 25, a number which I thought was really bloated.

From the look of it, Digg is heavily resources with a high ratio of servers to pageviews. Granted, they server alot of content and have some fancy Ajax features, particularly on some of their newer features.. but that’s just alot of hardware to push out the number of pageviews that they’re doing each day…
