Janet, thank you for visiting!

TheMadHat, exactly! and to back this up you should see comments on Digg about my post. The only rational person in there was Steve who posted first post here.

Thanks for the video, it’s hilarious. I’ll add this to the post! Everybody should see this!

I’m going to have to agree with you on this one. Digg is so full of noise and childish behavior it’s almost like surfing MySpace. Sphinn actually has some meaningful conversations that are attached to it and it isn’t full of spam (yet). For a good example of Digg, check out What if a business meeting was like Digg (NSFW). It’s the most entertaining video I’ve seen in a while! Good post!

It’s easier to come to the front page of Sphinn than to the front page of Digg. I find Digg visitors very hard to attract, probably because of the topics I write about and that’s why I like Sphinn more. It gives me what I want.

Thanks for correcting me, typo fixed.

Of course you will like Sphinn more than Digg. The newer site is smaller in scope so more people will see your blog posts. But, at the same time, it you would hit the frontpage of Digg, then you would likely have had 2 or 3 thousand references.

But, there isn’t much interesting on Sphinn if you are not a blogger of some flavor. For the niche, Sphinn may be a great site. But, it isn’t better than Digg for the more mainstream links.

And, please use a spell checker. The word is spelled “prefer”. It is most obvious when it is part of a title.

Why I Preffer Sphinn Over Digg…

Most of you are not yet familiar with Sphinn, since it was launched in July, so let me describe it in a simple way for all of you to understand….
