Digg River Gadget for iGoogle

I recently switched my home page from plain Google to iGoogle. I also switched from Blog­lines to Google Reader. I have, in essence, bowed my knee to the Google machine!

When I was look­ing for a Digg gad­get for my home page I couldn’t find any­thing I liked. I do like Digg River for brows­ing Digg with no-frills attached. So, I decided to cre­ate a quick gad­get out of it and style it. For this you’ll need Fire­fox, the iGoogle home page, and the Styl­ish add-on.

Steps

1. From your iGoogle home page go to “add stuff” in the upper right hand side.
2. Click the “add feed or gad­get” in the left side­bar, and paste the fol­low­ing URL.

3. Then in your Styl­ish add-on go to “Write style” and “blank style” and paste the fol­low­ing code.

   @-moz-document domain("diggriver.com") {
   body {font: 10px verdana, sans-serif;}
   input[class="i"], a[href^="/link"] {display: inline;}
   a {font-size: 10px;}
   form p {font: 0 verdana; color: white; clear: both;}
   .copy {display: none;}
   }
   

That’s it! Now you just login to the gad­get with your Digg account, and you have a good gadget!
