Digg in our lives - How important is it for you ?

In recent days, I was able to speak to various people who are active in various social media websites like Digg, Mixx/ Stumbleupon. I’m pretty active on Stumbleupon myself because not only it’s a great time killer! It lets me come across some beautiful services which without it, would be very difficult for me to reach.

However, I was wondering that what’s the impact of Digg, StumbleUpon in our lives ? There are many people who are now running full business from it ! Many bloggers and blog are doing pretty well and there was a time when the blog Smashing Magazine was out of Google Index, it kept on growing by leaps and bounds because there stories were doing pretty well on Digg.

Lets see the influence of Digg/Stumbleupon in our lives :

Currently there are 13, 572 images in Flickr, when searched for the term Digg and here are some of the few interesting images which I came across :
