Thing 6: Digg, Reddit...(et al)


I found this image on Digg . . . It was one of the more interesting things I found on this website. I can see how one could refine their use of Digg or Reddit or some of the other websites mentioned through preference changing and search options to make it function as a useful research tool. But for general use, I find these sites a little obnoxious. I can't imagine going to Digg to search for the daily news for example - the posts are all over the place. It is interesting to see what posts attract the most attention - and then I got sort of depressed that the most number of people were interested in some young woman that got arrested for swearing on a 9-1-1 call. You can check out all the pertinent details here.
