DiggDong! Stop Obsessively Refreshing Your Digg Submissions
Here at Curbly headquarters, we’re using DiggDong, a Mac OS X dashboard widget that keeps track of Diggs your stories have gotten. It refreshes periodically in the background, and will let you know (using Growl, if you have it) when there are new Diggs. So you take your fingers off of Command-R and take a bathroom break.
UPDATE: New Version posted! (12/14/06 12:15pm)
Download the DiggDong! widget for Mac OS X
It looks like this:
Here’s a shot of Growl telling me about some new Diggs. Just like crack, but legal.
WARNINGS!
This isn’t even alpha software. There’s no error checking; I can’t guarantee it won’t go crazy and start using all your CPU or bandwidth. It probably won’t rm -rf your home directory, but I can’t promise anything. I built this thing for myself, and I’m putting it out in hopes that others will find it useful, but please don’t sue me if it breaks something.

Nice, the Growl integration really makes this widget useful. Well done.

it seems to me that “diggs” is misspelled in the notification! it says “… has 1 new digs.”

[…] DiggDong - A Mac OS X dashboard widget that keeps track of the Diggs on your stories as they are recieved. The widget refreshes periodically in the background depending on your settings every 1, 5, or 10 minutes. It will let you know (using Growl, if you have it) when there are new Diggs.
