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. Tamar is also the author of The New Community Rules (July 2009).

The numbers would be a lot more representative if this approach was implemented, and the incentive to have users gaming these systems would be substantially diminished. In other words, is FriendFeed really stealing your traffic away or is it just another way to market your content with a clickthrough ratio of its own? Answers Yahoo!

While this isn’t anything substantially groundbreaking, I propose this question: why is it that many marketers are not embracing the technology earlier? Twitter, Pownce, and other “microblogging&# platforms really don’t fit in the type of social networks that I intend to illustrate here.

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.

This is not a regular practice on the social news giant, and unfortunately, that is probably the biggest thing causing its downfall. There was only one occasion when the users were able to make a lasting impression on the social news site. It’s hard to say if that will happen again. This is my perspective.

His URL is appended with a _2, which indicates that it was a duplicate submission: [link] The ironic thing is that Digg has a somewhat decent duplicate detection system.
