in the Mixx - thing 12

The article I submitted to share to Mixx was already submitted, but it jumped to it and I was able to see all of the comments that had already been made about it.

• How do you think you can use these tools in your library or at home? I've never used one of these sites before, but they would be great for staying on top of information. This seems like a great site to go to for gossipy entertainment news, one of my guilty pleasures.
  
• Do these tools seem to be a productivity enhancer or a productivity detractor? The comment sections on news sites tend to be a detractor for me. I find myself getting mad or frustrated with some of the things people post rather than just reading the story for myself.
  
• Have you ever read a story/item as a result of seeing it on one of these sites? I've never used one of these sites before, but people are able to post similarly on facebook. I don't normally go to the articles people post on there, but I have before.
