However, if your website and email messages don’t call attention to these features you’ve lost out on the opportunity to reach these folks and make these things happen.

Some of these sites also offer the ability to have commentary, including Facebook, Google Reader, FriendFeed, SocialMedian, and many others. For me, FriendFeed is the #2 driver of traffic to my Web site, behind only Google. Perhaps this is the fault of FriendFeed’s realtime feature. People never see anything.

Mixx has a lot of potential, and as new features are added to the service based on user feedback, it’s a viable social news network that can certainly deliver. Besides all for the hype to Mixx, which has lots of less features than even earthfrisk.com seems dumb. I know where I will spend more time in the feature.
