skipping the digg effect
March 7th, 2006This is a nice greasemonkey script to add mirrors to digg links. I found another one to remove adverts from digg but since I use adblock I didn’t even know digg had ads (although I thought the large white space under the header was a bit screwy).

I wish there was a way to collapse those types of elements; the big box at the top of CNN is removable, so its certainly doable. What is your take on Digg BTW?

It is certainly more navigable than /. and gets rid of the useless features like journals and personal information.
And it’s not green – how cool is that! I predict that the green monster will take on the number two mantle as easily as AMD, the other ‘greeny’, has.
Search tool is quite effective.
Submitting stories could be more fluid, the dupe checking is a bit erratic – seems to be by site so things bbq have to be double submitted.
Some sort of dugg threshold page would be cool – like the frontpage but you can specify “more than [60] diggs, less than [200]”.
Standard of comments is declining -1 digg!
