Digg de-n00ber
Gets rid of stupid articles on digg
One day I decided if I had to read one more story about AJAX or how some idiot modified Google Maps to display somthing that no one cares about, I would have to redirect digg.com to Goatse just to make sure I did not go there anymore.
Instead of that, I made this script, you can add and remove keywords from article titles you never want to see. Though, it tells you how many articles it's hiding, and gives you an option to see them, just incase you think you are missing somthing.
If the n00b factor of Digg continues at its current rate however, I might have to go with my firt plan

I agree. This script is dead.
RIP Digg de-n00ber.

This script no longer works with the latest Digg. I've made a similar script with more features and it works with Digg 4.0 at http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/7661

Sorry about that. I modified it so that it wouldn't find keywords as substrings of other words, like this:
Under the line:
var regkeywords = getKeywords().substr(1);
add:
regkeywords = '\\b' + regkeywords + '\\b';

I modified this script a little bit to work with the Sage RSS extension. You will need to add a custom style sheet to sage to make it work. You can get the user script here and a custom style sheet here.

I would also like to see this apply elsewhere (or have the option for it). For example - a way to have a separate list of words for comments and even apply this main list, but to the Digg QUEUE.

I've been looking for a script to get rid of articles related to skype and xbox. Thanks for helping clean up digg.

I would love to see the removal of individual comments based on keywords, like "dupe", "old news", and the like.
Good work though.
