It works like this - you submit your article to Digg, choose a category, etc.
When the submission has been successful, switch to the front page of Digg and click "upcoming".
Press Alt+PrtScn
You have just captured yourself on the front page of Digg.
For example, here is my front page Digg story - "Chinglish Delivery" - it made it to the front page around 4pm today.

How long did my article stay there?
About 10.5 seconds.
P.S. Please Digg me for being a smartarse.
Thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteuhmmm yeah I know... its not for 10 second... but in that few second if your article get digged by all digg user at 100-150 your article will be moved into main front page. Moved into favorite categories.
ReplyDeletemxyzplk - yes, that is the goal! My Australian humour I guess... :-)
ReplyDeleteHey 10 seconds is 10 seconds :)
ReplyDeleterick - that's what I thought! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat's cool!
ReplyDeleteI thought you were being serious when I read the title! :D
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many duggs needed to get to the front page for more than 10 seconds!
michael - I wondered if people would think I was serious! I'm thinking more than 1 digg would keep it there for longer than 10 secs...with a few more - who knows?
