Thing 12: Do you Digg?

Before this "thing", I had never looked at any of these sites, and didn't know about the ability to submit articles to them. I explored all four sites listed: Mixx, Digg, Newsvine, and Reddit. My opinion was that Newsvine seemed the most respectable, probably due to its focus on stories from the media. I did not create an account. I don't tend to get my news online, so didn't think I'd actually ever use it. I did read an article on the New York Times site about osteoporosis drugs causing bone fractures, and submitted it to Newsvine. The process was easy and painless.
