Several people are mentioning Digg and StumbleUpon in the same breath; you’re not bookmarking the same pages to both, are you?

What I do, as the sites are intended, is you stumble index pages and digg deep pages. So, this page RIGHT HERE is worthy of a digg, not a stumble.

Digg gives me nothing but the occassional backlink. I think I had about 20 click throughs from DIGG in total. Most social networking sites are more work than they are worth.

Stumble upon however rocks.

Nice article, brought up a lot of issue I did not thing about when I wrote mine. Digg really has become more of a lifestyle phenomenon than anything else.

Cheers for the comments… In this case, it isn’t the url’s of the websites we run which has been blocked – that would be far, far more serious as it would affect any of our users submitting content.

It’s only the IP address of the user accounts which has been blocked, which stops any employees of our company based in certain offices from logging in – which is frustrating to say the least, as we’d like our employees to be able to use and understand how to use websites like Digg correctly, rather than spamming or gaming them – ironically the reason just given to me for the block is account creation fraud, yet our accounts were registered at various times over at least a 2 year period – it may be that because I’ve been encouraging people to take a look at Digg, the sudden action of 8 accounts all being used around the same time lit up a flag somewhere…

The biggest irony is that Digg won’t go into details at the moment due to ‘user privacy’, yet anything from the company IP address isn’t private anyway as it’s on the company firewall, company computers etc!
