Del.iciou.us and Digg plugins

    I'd like to install Wordpress plugins that will detect links from delicious and diggs, and also easily allow users to bookmark my parenting site on those 2 popular social bookmarking sites.

    I'm not a del.icio.us or digg user, (YET! What's the matter with the Firefox bookmarks??) just a blogger looking for more traffic!

    Do these plugins look like what I want?

    Have any of you used them?

    Thanks!!

    If you're just looking for links, you could just use the Del.icio.us linkroll or tagroll feature, I think. For that all you need to do is insert the HTML code.
    http://del.icio.us/help/linkrolls and http://del.icio.us/help/tagrolls

    The DiggThis plugin works a little differently - it looks like when you Digg a post, it copies that post to your blog.

    I haven't used either one myself.

    To answer your question "What's the matter with the Firefox bookmarks??" - they're private... the other sites and sites like them are "social bookmarks" - you share them.
