Plus, this kind of thinking can help you out not just in Social Media, but in life in general. So much of what mankind has created would have been impossible if we were not such social animals. Truly remarkable individual accomplishments are more the exception than the rule. It's too easy to forget that when you play Digg like a video game. Nice article!

Your experience parallels mine. One of the biggest challenges of using Digg, at least as a submitter, is just getting noticed. Friends (or colleagues, whatever) are the most effective way to get noticed. @Yoni - hi and thanks for stopping by! Your experience parallels mine.

I found, long after spending countless hours working in anonymity, that my own content was able to have a bigger impact on Digg only after I started making friends and interacting with other diggers. It is a community, maybe a dysfunctional one, but a community nevertheless. Great post and great advice.
