Testing The Digg Rss Feed Importer

Sat, 08/28/2010 - 2:35pm — senh

So Digg has released a new version, and one of its new features is that it allows you to submit your RSS feeds and have your articles automatically dugg. It's a controversial feature because it has the potential to open up a can of spam. Anyway, I'm testing it out with this article. So far, it hasn't work, but I'll give it several hours.

EDIT: It worked. You just have to follow their instructions and wait several hours before pressing the verify button.
