hotDigg finally there!

March 25, 2006

You had all been waiting for it so long, it finally arrived: The ultimate DIGG.com live-news-feed screensaver.

HOTDIGG Version 1.00
http://hotdigg.mittermayr.com/

And because I’ve created it, it’s – once again – totally free. No, don’t worry, no advertisement in the application, no malware, no spyware – just truly free software again. You finally got the chance to see the news scrolling by, either during work, or at the moment when you come back from lunch or something. Oh god, millions of ways to use it. It’s brought to you as a standalone version AND screensaver version. Woohoo.

Now, I’m bragging, sorry. I am just proud of this small gadget. Not only because it’s pretty nice to use but even more because I can’t wait to release the next version of it, which is going to be 3D! Yes, even more fancy stuff is in the factory, so stay tuned for more.

Right now, I think it’s best if you check out the original website for further information:

Any comment on that is greatly appreciated. Use it, critize it, let’s make it better!

Thanks for your support,

  1. Hey, love the app. The only thing I notice is that it isnt using the bottom fifth of my screen. My resolution is 1680×1050 (widescreen). I just thought I’d let you know. Thanks for making a cool screen saver!


  2. Thanks! Yes, you are obviously right. Shame on me. I only have a 1024 monitor and found it fair enough for my case ;-) I am working on an updated version soon, so expect some support for large screens then! Thanks for your comment!


  3. This is truly a great little application. Should we be expecting dual monitor support anytime in the future? :)


  4. Thanks Mike! Yes I hope so, this was just a “first test” of what it may look like, so I got plenty of things on the list now for the next version!

    Thanks for your comment!
