diggsig

1. Sign up with Digg 2. Go to DiggSig.com and put in your user name 3. There is no step three There's no clear documentation, so it's tough to tell just what's going on. But I can tell you the number of Diggs is just a random number. Until they figure something better out, that's what you get. Perhaps they'll get is straitened out soon. If you want to verify this, take a look at digg / MacStansbury. See? There I am, in all my IT glory, just waiting to be added to your friends. What that does, I dunno. I'm actually clueless on what friends does to help you, or hinder you, or add to the experience. In fact, other than the obvious, I don't get most of the "cool features" are there for. I've almost never used Digg, and I've been clicking the links for far longer than I've had an account. Thus, a rather lack of my involvement in the community. I'm sure if I didn't have tons of other resources, didn't know what Fark.com and del.icio.us and memeorandum were, I'd be glued to Digg every day. But I do have those other things, and I don't use Digg as my link server every day. As far as this well-rounded, journalistic journey into self-help nirvana: okay, not all the tutorials are world-changers, okay? I figured, for once, I'd make it easy on myself, and do the throw-away post. Here ya go. Just one more in the long line of fine-quality posts you've grown to expect from MacStansbury.com! Mostly, this is a tutorial I could set up to backdoor some of my own personal ideas into a simple enough idea. The DiggSig is fun and all, but it's not something I'll ever think about. But it is something that's good blog-fodder. And a tutorial to add on top of that? I'm telling you folks, it just can't be beat. Maybe somebody should submit this to Digg...then see what happens?
