Diggers vs Mixxers

Posted on: November 26, 2007 — 9 Comments

I’ve been on Digg now for a little under a year and I think the site is great when it comes to all the latest headlines and everything else in between. My only complaint is that there are quite a few Diggers out there who are quick to jump on you and put you down for whatever reasons they may find justifiable. Voice an opposing opinion and you will be flamed and bashed. Diggers are notoriously known to be the most rude, tech-savvy, know it all, I hate you, crowd. Digg.com is a great site but I think its demise will eventually be caused by its community.

Enter Mixx.com. Yet another Digg clone, it’s only about 2 months old, but has the potential to throw Digg off the top. The big difference between Mixx and Digg? Well the members of course! Mixx members are laid back, they will not make fun of you if you misspelled a title heading, they will not call you names, and I have yet to see anybody curse at someone. Mixx is still very new and has a long way to go but the potential is there, I just hope the community doesn’t turn sour the way the Digg community did!

We all know how Diggers hate SEO submissions, and they are quick to bury you if you submit from your own blog. I found this out the hard way when I thought I had a great article on my old blog, I submitted it only to get buried and never saw the light of day. So now I’m going to put Mixx to the test. I will attempt to submit this post and see what kind of reaction I’ll get from the Mixx crowd.

PS – Ignore the Digg button below..do not submit this to Digg!!!

With the new digg algorithm, this has become even more so.

Why don’t you want it submitted to digg? Sticks and stones….sticks and stones.

I like Digg but it is just a big Internet clique. Here you have the entire www to work with and then there is this little gang of surfers who want to dominate a nano portion of it.

Hopefully the users who use Mixx can help mold it in to something that everyone can enjoy. Use Mixx now and you can be that change.

Thanks for enlightening me about mixx. Although I am a digger, I really do not like it.It takes me ages before I log in again on digg.In fact, I love StumbleUpon more than Digg.
