Digg’s Little Backdoor Fixed

Digg, everybody’s favourite source of traffic, has been undergoing a  lot of changes recently. One of those changes that is sure to affect the ways we get our stuff noticed is a fix they applied to the way you can digg or undigg stories. Before, it was possible to digg a story, then undigg it then digg it again which lead to it showing higher on the list of newly submitted stories – thus increasing its chances to get noticed by other people unaffiliated with the original submitter. Some people used this technique quite a lot – and probably it got it burned finally. Now, when you undigg a previously dugg story there is a popup telling you you WON’T be able to digg it again. Backdoor closed.
