WP Digg This plugin released

Yesterday, Wordpress Optimization Guide hit the front page of Digg and I needed a plugin to selectively show Digg button so I mashed up a new pluginĀ  to handle the occasion.

I called it WP Digg This, and it allows you to select articles you want to show Digg button on, simply by adding a custom field to the post with key 'digg' and value '1'. Very simple and it works. This is much better then showing Digg button on all pages of your site.

In case you wonder, the site was just fine the whole day, not using more than 5% resources. Thanks to the girls from Peachy Green for calling me to say article was on Digg FP. Thanks to Dave for cheeringĀ  the whole day. And thanks to my hosting who answered promptly when I asked them to keep an eye on the server. They monitored the site throughout the day as article consecutively went to Delicious and Mixx front pages. Finally big thanks to all who voted, I am glad you liked it!
