The original bugginess had a lot to do with memory management and has been reworked completely to correct these problems. In addition, the new Shovel app (3.0-ish) includes much more intelligent story loading and is much faster in browsing between multiple stories and accessing the stories themselves (through an in app browser window). The current build features access to Instapaper and Facebook and has features in place to allow digging up/down as well as leaving comments which will be made available as soon as Digg releases these features through their API. Overall the rewritten app feels much more streamlined and quick, and I expect current users of Shovel to experience a massive boost in speed and usability when they upgrade to Shovel 3.0 Key Notes: -The 3.0 release will have a free (ad supported) and paid version. -Overall memory management has been vastly improved -A more extensive debugging process has been undertaken with this release -Digg has NOT released digg up/down features to their API as of yet -These features have been written into the new Shovel app already, all that remains is the API functionality to interact with the Digg website -Included with every feature we've taken the time to code (digg up/down, commenting etc) we've included a form letter builder with which you will be able to automatically send digg an email kindly requesting that they release these features with their API. You can of course sign with your own name and hopefully with enough requests they'll solve the issue of releasing this functionality while preventing the inevitable bots and spammers that will abuse it.

Key Notes:
-The 3.0 release will have a free (ad supported) and paid version.
-Overall memory management has been vastly improved
-A more extensive debugging process has been undertaken with this release
-Digg has NOT released digg up/down features to their API as of yet
-These features have been written into the new Shovel app already, all that remains is the API functionality to interact with the Digg website
-Included with every feature we’ve taken the time to code (digg up/down, commenting etc) we’ve included a form letter builder with which you will be able to automatically send digg an email kindly requesting that they release these features with their API.
