Marketallica has an interesting article by a top 100 Digg user who shares his tips for being successful on Digg (as a user). The english isn’t great (but then again neither is mine at times) but the tips give insight into Digg userland.

I’m glad to have discovered ProBlogger, and look forward to using it to enhance my internship work with Ed Mills of Evolving Times.com

Thanks for your informative site!
