Digg this button
Several times I have talked to friends about the value of the "digg this" button. On one hand there is the potential to get a windfall of traffic to your site on the other hand its like taking drugs, put one button up then another and suddenly your site looks like some myspace page of a 12 year old kid.
The other consideration is the type of traffic you get. Will they visit your site again ? will they subscribe to your RSS feeds ? or will they just view your content and rip it for their own site?
The last thing is whether your site is going to handle the surge of a few thousand visitors or crash and burn 5 minutes into the wave.

You may want to change “weather” to “whether”.
As for the button, who knows until you try it?

Yeh thanks for the spelling, I do run the “Share this” plugin but got not much love from that. Nice Photos by the way.
