Thing 12 - Do You Digg?

This is the tool I've been least impressed with so far...I'm sure they are useful, but they were just overwhelming to me! I can see getting lost in them for hours on end. My gut reaction was a lot of biases were being posted and students will just take the info and plop it into a paper without critically thinking about where it came from, who posted it and why.

Until today, I hadn't looked at these types of sites -- I did pop into a story or two that piqued my interest, but was consciously trying not to dive in, for fear I might drown. For me, these would be a productivity detractor!
