Description

=====================================

SHOVEL 3.0 IS COMING SOON AND WILL BE A FREE UPDATE TO CURRENT 2.0 USERS!

=====================================

Shovel 3.0 is the premier Digg client application for the iPhone.

Through Shovel you gain access to the world of socially aggregated online news. While the site specializes in Tech news, there are more specialized categories where you can find news of interest to car enthusiasts, outdoorsmen, and more than anyone's fair share of funny videos.

All of the stories and submissions are voted on by the community and the best rise to the top!

So when you load up Shovel you are treated to a listing of the top rated, most up to date news, in topics that you're interested in.

Building on the success of Shovel 2.0, we started from the ground up and set out to build a truly fluid iPhone interface for an already outstanding experience.

Before we did anything at all, we rewrote the entire Digg API interface from scratch, making sure that we'd be ready the moment they open up their API to logging in, digging, and leaving comments. We know you all want it. It looks like they're close to letting us have it. *crossed fingers*

Once we'd done that we got started making a great new Shovel!
