As a top Digg submitter, it worked like this: at first, people noticed my heavy community involvement and my participation , and consequently, my submitted stories easily front-paged. The community had to react. There’s no real community in Digg. Most other sites you belong to probably have a bigger sense of community.

Considering Facebook acts as more of an aggregator than the actual source (like a blog post), it would seem more prudent for them to go through the provider hosting the content, like a web host.

We are aggregating vast amounts of data, and in our integration with Facebook for example, we don’t open up everything we get because some of it just isn’t relevant.
