During the first three days of our operation, we have placed a good number of stories (both paid and random) on the front page of Digg. As far as we can tell, none of our users have been banned. We have kept almost all of our users busy.

Many of you have been asking when you can expect to see money in your account. We place money in your account once we have verified your activity. We try to verify all Digging activity for a day all at once, and we should be doing this within the next hour. *Update* Since our Ruby on Rails server decided to crap out tonight, we will verify your activity once it is up again.

A few of you encountered a couple minor bugs in the system. Thanks to your feedback, these bugs are now gone.

Operation will only get smoother, cleaner, and faster from here.

After a week of awesome blogosphere coverage, we are approaching critical mass of users. What’s most interesting to us is that 10% of people who visit our site register for an account. Things are shaping up for an awesome launch.

We’ve decided to grease your palms even more for helping us build this site. We’ll now pay you 20% of the income of any user your refer to this site. This offer is amazing. You could actually make hundreds of dollars per month just by getting all of your friends to Digg for us. What’s more, there is absolutely zero cost to you. Do it!

With all this good news, we are almost ready to launch. We won’t give a date, but it may be this week.
