Mash. I got a Mash invite sitting in my Inbox that I still have to respond to (well, at least it wasn't another Quechup "invite." ) And, yeah--another social networking thingamabob to keep up with. yikes!

I stopped using digg a while ago and I only really glanced at the new digg profiles. When I'm not working on my own site, I'll hit reddit (for some reason I like it better than digg). I've even gone back to slashdot, having been "digged-out". Weird, huh? As for Mash, I appreciate your invite. I feel badly though, I went to the site and just kinda felt the whole social networking malaise and haven't really been back. Doing a profile is just too much work. Of course, if digg can create a better experience for its existing cored of users, even that might be worthwhile. My main problem with profiles like the digg one is that it's so data-heavy. Facebook is brilliant b/c of the engagement/interaction component. I think that's where the profile and social networking gets more interesting with games, poking, virtual gifts and the like.

So true. Instead of making our lives simpler, we are inundated with features that already exist in other social networks. I think it's pointless. But you might find the newest Drill Down podcast (which we recorded tonight) interesting when it is made live. We had an interesting debate. :) “Digg is creating yet another profile that requires time and energy to maintain and cultivate.”
