That's a nifty app you have there. I totally have no clue how you managed to mosh the DIGG and GoogleMaps API together. Good job. Just an observation, I noticed that the header/digg title vanishes between updates causing everything below it to shift up and down. It gets a little dizzying after a while, what I would do is to turn the header into a block element so that it doesn't collapse (im not sure if it'll work though). Cheers, Ed Thanks Alan.

My only slight criticism is that the text on the small stories is a bit too small. But other than that, very nice and well done! I have also been playing with the API and have come up with a world map that updates in real-time as stories are dugg with their diggers' location.
