  Can’t seem to get this working.
  I copy the following code

  <img src=”http://faq.files.wordpress.com/2006/07/digg.gif” alt=”Digg” />

  and insert in a text box listed under side bar widgets…

  is there a time delay until this shows up…probably not..

  Suggestions?

  I don’t think the Digg thing works as a sidebar widget. It does work as an individual post widget, but it has to be inserted in each post to work for that post, eg this. For that to work you shouldn’t put in the FAQ link: instead you should follow the instructions in that FAQ.

  Also, there is a problem with widgets right now:

  Agree with Judy but to answer the question, the sidebars are cached and you may see a delay. usually a forced reload of the page will get you a newer copy.

  Digg usually goes into a post though. Link for reference

  This is the only way to display your technorati rank in the sidebar on WordPress.com:
