news.cnet.com— John Gruber of the blog Daring Fireball doesn't like what Digg's doing with its DiggBar, and has come up with a relatively simple way to block it on his own site.

I don't hate it, but I did end up turning it off because it got a little irritating to not be able to see the true URL in my browser bar. I realize it's displayed on the DiggBar itself, but it still irritated me since I'm not used to looking there. Otherwise, I think it was a great alternative to a software download.
What I like about diggbar is that it also works on chrome, which unfriendly to toolbars. What would be nice, however, is to have the original url either still posted in the address bar, or in the diggbar for easy access. I would continue to use diggbar if there was an opt-out/in feature to it, but I can understand why people don't like it.
