Social news / bookmarking sites like del.icio.us, technorati, dig and others. Microblogs e.g. Twitter. Our primary goal when developing a social marketing strategy should be to establish conversation parameters. People visit social networking sites because they want to have conversations that dont involve sales pitches.

It’s about time that I bring the dialogue here since it’s evident that I’m already starting to grow fond of the brand new social network. The Early Adopter Appeal Mixx is a new social news site that went into private beta a mere two months ago. It’s instant. I voted accordingly. Yes it will.

If you use Twitter regularly, you’d see that it wins as a social news site that provides instantaneous news — at least of that caliber. As Chris Garrett explains in his post, if you follow numerous feed bots, you can get the news all the time. The right news will hit the front page of Digg quickly.

So the question arose – was social media traffic misrepresented by grouping traffic from all networks together? Hat tip to Gab for posing that question to me.) As such, it has been selected as the generic social network of choice. Subsequently, Sphinn is perhaps the most relevant niche social network on the web.

This is not a regular practice on the social news giant, and unfortunately, that is probably the biggest thing causing its downfall.
