I'm still not entirely sure whether I like twitter or not. Same as you, I went on it... got off it... went back, and now I dont really know where I stand! /Nick I really need to give Pownce another shot if it’s as good as you say.

Sounds like a theme for a new article — how to make the most of your time with Social Media & Social Networking. I'll give that some thought...

Sounds like a theme for a new article — how to make the most of your time with Social Media & Social Networking.

I’ll give that some thought…

I'll be checking it out. My biggest problem with the whole social web app world, is the amount of time it sucks me into spending. I do try to make a living on line, and I'm far too easily distracted by this fun stuff. I suppose that's more my problem then the developers of all this cool ware though.

Whenever I've had something on the front page, the first 20-30 comments are just a wasteland of idiotic, meaningless and hateful unmentionables. It' a shame because I remember when Digg was better than that. Hi David, I was pretty sure you'd say that! Speak soon, guys...

I agree with most of those... one thing I feel about Digg personally is that the whole community has gotten truly nasty and volatile over the past few months. Almost anything that hits the front page and doesn't contain the name 'Obama' soon gets deluged with a vast array of critical or incendiary comments. I love Digg because it's a great way to keep on top of some of the latest stories of general interest to me and the Digg population. However, I feel I'm ignoring the comments section more and more often because I know they're going to either be completely useless or just plain tick me off! Some great points!
