My (limited) understanding is that it took 3 days to transfer because that was a new wallet ID and it needs to spread through the network. If you send him some doge now it should take 10-15 mins or less. Also this seems a like a natural progression from reddit's dogetipbot. I think it's a good idea to have a generic way to tip cryptocurrency on the web, I think once the right implementation takes place it'll be a real winner

There was no network involved, it was Cryptsy's internal db (just like mine). Also, for blockchain-based cryptocurrencies transactions are seen by most nodes within seconds. When I withdraw from the site to an address that I just made up, my Dogecoin client picks up the (unconfirmed) transaction almost instantly.

That's fairly incorrect. Wallets are not a single address, nor to they need to be known by the network to be sent to. Address creation happens completely offline.
