“Digg It” Button for readers arriving from Digg

There’s a new feature on all content items (text and multimedia) – people arriving from Digg to an item page will see the “Digg It” button for the current item, which includes the number of diggs this item has so far and a direct link for digging it. We hope this feature will encourage voting for items, as it becomes easier and more intuitive.

Currently this feature works only if the referring page is the detailed story page on Digg, that is, the story with the comments, and not from other pages on Digg such as popular or upcoming stories. We will soon upgrade this feature to support also this kind of referrers.

Oh, and to all you stumblers – we also added a “Stumble Upon” button to the “Share It!” line.

Enjoy!
