I love the video demo you can access through the "Learn More" link on this site. It's hyperbolic and pretty funny.

The overall value proposition for this site seems a lot like the classic Blue Dot model except that they reward Spankers.

Quoted: Another social bookmarking site worth mentioning is Blue Dot. Considered by some as mixture between social networking and bookmarking, Blue Dot is about finding and voting for content on the Web, and connecting with people with similar interests.

This is an entry today in one of the professional Salon.com blogs discussing Yahoo's announced purchase of del.icio.us. It's a short piece ina blog typically dedicated to issues around globalism.

Quoted: "Globalization is a fearsome force, if only because of the obvious way in which it is weakening the power of organized labor in the industrialized world. But the creation of a global community of minds via the Internet, the burgeoning of conversations mediated by social networking sites and blogs and mailing lists and e-mail and instant messaging is also a fantastically potent and positive force for the expression of ideas and the creation of community that kowtows to no authority. Part of the story of globalization, then, is the story of the Internet, and how people are using it to organize themselves in new and powerful ways. So when you see posts here about hackers and geeks twisting the Net to their own purposes -- and being co-opted by Yahoo and Google and Microsoft as soon as their creations gain traction -- that's what's going on. It's the narrative of interconnection, and we're all part of it every time we log on."
