Andy,

I think the average age of the people in the video is much older than most users who actually act like that.

There is so many submissions and the "upcoming" subs get buried to page 3 so fast that you barely have time to read them all. That video is funny.

The lameness of many of the comments does hold quite a lot of truth, most of the stuff on digg is the same old crap seen before already anyways so why bother to check on it still.

Unfortunately, in my life as a programmer, I think I've worked with most of these people. These are the sorts of meeting when you bring in a bunch of quarters so people can buy clues.:-) I know the social media stuff is important, but I still haven't gotten into it due to the signal to noise ratio. How many stupid comments, twitters, videos and other junk do you have to wade through to get to the good stuff? That is why I value this blog. The posts are on target, and the comments are insightful (this one excluded, of course LOL) Joann my newbie blog http://thatbeadinglady.blogspot.com Now I know why I’ve been avoiding Digg!

Can't take credit for more than just finding and sharing it. I think the video over-dramatizes things a bit, but it also gets a needed point across. What's been your experience on Stumble? <strong>Ben,</strong> Yeah, I know. I just can't help but get annoyed from time-to-time about it. I'm just glad I'm not a young, blonde woman. And I'm with you on giving the best advice - your advice rocks! <strong>Togmkn,</strong> I know, had been kicking around whether to share it or not. And, I've had a lot of good stuff to write about lately so I wasn't sure where it would fit in. Dana,

Ben,
Yeah, I know. I just can’t help but get annoyed from time-to-time about it. I’m just glad I’m not a young, blonde woman.

I haven't personally had the fortune (good and bad) of being dugg, but I have seen a lot of this type of stuff there. I use StumbleUpon a lot, and though I know there's some of the same on there, I don't think it's quite so excessive. Great video!
