IMHO
The copy idea is good, Brandon.

Here are some things you might try:
(1) add the word “which”
(2) bold the link “as candy” OR drop it altogether.
(2) Get rid of the AdSense.
(3) Lead with a much larger picture of the business card (closer to 450 pixels than to 250 pixels)
(4) Try a playful/charismatic font, like Georgia. Serifs have more fun
(5)Increase the font size–although I’m not suggesting you go overboard as I do on two of my sites (mine isn’t tested yet, I’m still working on content!)
(6) If you’re not wedded to the theme put it in Cutline or something with more chutzbah or at least with a bit more intensity

What have you got to lose? I mean those “29 readers” aren’t digg-ing it so the digg-ers will be actually viewing the post ON the site.

You want people to “digg” right? Okay, then THAT is the call to action. The adsense, the candy all those categories…too many distractions…

All that humbly offered from me, your student, everybody’s student. Heck I’m still working on content, like I said! I started Feb 2007 what do I really know about this stuff anyway. So just take it with a grain of salt, good salt like Maldon, Celtic, Himalayan. Who needs distractions?
