The introduction of digg v3 brought with it the addition of a lot of categories for the stories posted there along with many other features. So it seemed a good time to turn my attention to a better Digg Monitor for Proxi.

Digg Monitor v0.2 adds support for monitoring only those categories of news interesting to you. This also makes it easier to assign a different set of tasks to items that fall in one category versus another. The available categories are:

• All Stories
• Technology
• Apple, Design, Gadgets, Hardware, Industry News, Linux / Unix, Mods, Programming, Security, Software, Tech Deals
• Science
• Space, Environment, Health, General Sciences
• World & Business
• Business & Finance, Politics, World News, Offbeat News
• Videos
• Animation, Comedy, Educational, Music, People, Gaming
• Entertainment
• Celebrity, Movies, Music, Television
• Gaming
• Gaming News, Playable Web Games

In addition to being able to monitor stories dugg by digg users and the friends of digg users, there is now support for monitoring stories submitted or commented on a particular digg user or friends. Where applicable, the Digg Monitor will set the new “Friends” value to a comma separated list of friends that have commented on or dugg a story. And finally, the error reporting has been cleaned up. No longer will a broken feed or internet connection bring up an annoying dialog box. Errors are reported in the settings view and indicated by a caution icon in your trigger list.

Of course the Digg Monitor requires Proxi for Mac OS X.
