When posted in the comments of a story...It automatically captures the website. Awesome actually.

Very awesome, without it you would have to wait for the Digg effect to wear off before you could view the site.

I don't necessarily know how to use it, but for a popular story, just look in the comments, eventually someone will have a link that will have a capture of the site.

All it is is a Digg exact replica...."A Mirror"
Only difference is that Digg doesn't capture the site...like DuggTrends does. This makes it so 1000's can go on the site at once without crashing some familys little website.

AFAIK, duggmirror just mirrors the front paged stories, and then if you want to see the mirror replace *digg* with *duggmirror* in the URL,
ex. http://www.digg.com/This_is_a_story
the mirror would be
http://www.duggmirror.com/This_is_a_story
it's very useful indeed, except for the few times it doesn't manage to catch it before it goes down. That's when coral cache and google cache come in.

Digg would sort of suck without it.
