TIP: This script is compatible with the User Script Updates script.
This means it can be automatically updated. For this to work, all you have to do is make sure you have both scripts installed, and that's it.


This script was inspired by a few other scripts I came across prior to writing this one.

Now, with 50% more (than any other script), and 15% less fat, this script adds links to the following SIX mirroring and caching sites: Coral Cache, DotCach, DuggBack, DuggMirror, Google Cache and The Wayback Machine to the bottom of each article on Digg.com.
Also, unlike most other scripts like it out there, this script is very fast and efficient, and super slim, too.

The links are added below the article, where they are easy to locate, and don't stand out or interfere with the site's design and structure. They're dimmed while not moused over, so that they blend nicely with the rest of the site's style, and don't take any unneeded attention from your eye.

When requesting compatibility with a certain script/website it would be helpful if a link to it is provided. It will save me the hassle of searching for it by name and/or ending up at the wrong place.


Update 7.2.08: Updated the script to work again on single-article pages. Digg changed the structure on me, so I had to make some adjustments.

Update 12.12.07: Added snapshots, fixed the CSS for single article pages, and removed a few lines in the code to make it even more light weight.

Update 12.11.07: Finally had the time to update the script to Digg's (not so recent) changes. I moved the links to the beginning of the line, so that they are always in the same place. Also, on article pages, a new entry below the story is added, labeled "Mirrors", with the same links as on the front and search pages.

Update 06.26.07: Added DotCache.com and DuggBack.com link.

Update 04.16.07: Fixed it to work again after Digg decided to make change to the site again.
