Wordpress.com blog hosting service recently added the support for digg it buttons, allowing bloggers to manually integrate “Digg it” buttons in blog posts for already submitted stories.
Here is a simply trick to get notified when somebody submit your post to digg.
Open the Digg Search page http://digg.com/search
In the search form, type in your site URL:

Select ”URL Only”, and “Upcoming Stories”. Leave the other options as default.
hit the search button.
On the search results page. In the the right side, there will be an RSS icon!

Click the RSS icon to subscribe to the RSS feed for this search, and your RSS reader will let you know when your story gets submitted on digg, If you only want to be alerted when you get to the front page, you can change the search to “Front Page Stories” and subscribe to that feed

Freakitude blog has been unbanned from Digg after being banned for almost 2 months. I think it was a manual review process because i never announced that freakitude is banned and never sent any email to them.
They also unbanned some other websites like johnchow, Paul Stamatiou and Kineda.
I am really happy to see that some good blogs and websites are back in but still some others like tech-buzz are still banned.
This time i will play safe and will only submit my best content to digg. ;).

I suggest you to read the step by step instructions here.
The FAQ say that your story must already be submitted to Digg for this to work so i am still confused how the button will show up if someone else submits your story to digg.
There must be some technical limitations that pushed them to keep it simple because there are some better wordpress plugins to automatically detect if the story is submitted on digg.
If your story is on digg then users can digg it else the button will take them to a page where they can submit it to the digg.

Today i found phpbb hack to insert adsense in phpbb topics. This hack automatically inserts adsense and other ads after the first post of each thread.
If you run a phpbb powered forum it can help out a lot for AdSense integration.
Screenshot:

Its easy to implement because you just have to edit viewtopic.php file, or you can use the bundled viewtopic.php file for new phpbb installation.

Last month Google redesigned the Image search results page to hide extra image information like image size, source website. The redesign forced users to hover mouse cursor over the image to see these extra details.

Many users did not liked the new design because they had to take an extra step if they wanted to see the details of an image. Google reacting to negative response from users, has reverted to the old design.
