This is not a regular practice on the social news giant, and unfortunately, that is probably the biggest thing causing its downfall. Really, the biggest unfortunate investment of social media is that it’s often a thankless job. That hasn’t been much of a reality on Digg. Digg is not the government.

Nearly four months later, the social features appear to be here to stay. As Digg becomes more of a social network and less of a social news network (or a hybrid that incorporates both elements), it has a lot of obstacles it needs to face. We come to know Tamar is also on pay roll of Digg? Hats off to you Tamar.

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. That’s why Mixx has a lot of potential.

In the past few weeks, however, even Digg’s other top users are seeing that Digg is becoming more difficult of a social news site to enjoy, and after stepping away from Digg for awhile, I have some thoughts and reflections on how it was and possibly how it should be. Reddit and Mixx , on the other hand, live on a karma system.

Yet with social media, there’s a perception that it’s easy to score freebies. Social media has introduced incentives to the online space, encouraging others to connect with your business. And unfortunately, social media is at fault for breeding this mentality and causing it to spread.

Marketers love Facebook. The best place you can place your brand on Facebook is through a Facebook Page (that’s with a capital “P&# , not to be confused with your personal Profile). Facebook Pages do not allow background images like Twitter, Myspace, and other services. This applies to Pages as well.
