What is digg?
Digg is a technology news website that combines social bookmarking, blogging, RSS, and
non-hierarchical editorial control. With digg, users submit stories for review, but rather than allow an editor to
decide which stories go on the homepage, the users do.
2. How
to promote stories to the homepage
Once a story is submitted by a user it is instantly posted in the digg area queue. This is a
temporary holding place where stories wait to be promoted to the homepage. To help promote stories to the homepage,
simply visit the digg area and digg stories you think are cool. Once a story has received enough diggs, it is
instantly promoted. Should the story not receive enough diggs, or is reported, it eventually falls out of the digg
area queue. Digg works because a large group of people actively promote good stories to the homepage. Since this
site's content is user-driven, it is up to YOU to contribute.
3. How
to submit stories
Submitting stories is easy. Simply click on "submit a story" and enter the URL
of the story you would like to submit. Then fill out a title, description, and category for the story. Should you
encounter a potential duplicate, please digg the original story and do not submit a duplicate
entry.
4. How
to add digg news to your website
There are currently two types of digg news you can add to your website, digg homepage
news and digg user news. If you would like to add the latest digg homepage stories to your website simply click
"add digg news" on the digg homepage right navigation. To add digg user news, (your latest diggs,
or someone else's) visit the user's profile you would like to add (digg.com/users/username) and click "add this
feed" in the digging history navigation.
