Thing 11 Social Media

I'm a self-confessed news junkie but honestly I've avoided these little icons when I read news articles. DIGG never seems to work the way I think it should. REDDIT isn't used by many of my news sources. NEWSVINE seems to cover the sources I want but really--why? So we can vote on the stories like news is a new reality show? I'm particularly impressed that under Entertainment they have a subcategory for Porn.

I signed up for an account on Newsvine but I doubt that I will ever use it. Rating news stories?? I do recommend and send news stories to friends and families but I can do that much easier directly than using any of these services.
