- palish 17y agoMinor typo: "Here’s the problem: If your site ends up on Digg, visitors using the Diggbar will not visit your URL" The italicized "not" is omitted in the actual article.
- lpgauth 17y agoWhat about the Facebookbar? Why is no one complaining?
- mncaudill 17y agoEven reddit has one; it's just disabled in the user's settings by default.

- barredo 17y agoI guess the Facebook's main goal it's not to provide links to external sites where the real information is. Also, Facebook's bar does not pretend to be a URL shortener to get links and increase it's own traffic.
- domnit 17y agoDigg can avoid pissing people off with this by adding their own framebuster. If the frameset's HTTP referrer is Digg, then the DiggBar is a potentially useful toolbar. If the referrer is something else, it should redirect to the original page.
- zubar 17y agoIronically he isn't blocking the diggbar.
