Below is a description of each social media site along with links to learn more about its services and registration.
Digg
Digg is a user-driven social content website. Everything on Digg is submitted by the Digg user community. After you submit content, other people read your submission and vote - or "Digg" - on what they like best. If the content you submitted is popular with the Digg community, and it receives enough Diggs, then it's promoted to the front page for the millions of visitors to see.
Every person can digg (help promote), bury (help remove spam), and comment on stories... you can even Digg and bury comments you like or dislike. Digg also allows you to track your friends' activity throughout the site. Learn more about Digg.
del.icio.us
del.icio.us is a social bookmarking website - the primary use of del.icio.us is to store your bookmarks online, which allows you to access the same bookmarks from any computer and add bookmarks from anywhere, too. On del.icio.us, you can use tags to organize and remember your bookmarks. For example, you might want to bookmark something from the Zondervan Blog with the following tags, "Bible," "Zondervan," "Christian," and "evangelical," so that you can find it in any of your tagged categories.
You can also use del.icio.us to see the interesting links that your friends and other users bookmark, and share links with them in return. You can even browse and search del.icio.us to discover the interesting and useful bookmarks that everyone else has saved - which is made easy with tags. Learn more about del.icio.us.
Facebook
Facebook is a social network that connects people with friends and others who work, study, and live around them. People use Facebook to keep up with friends, upload an unlimited number of photos, share links and videos, and learn more about the people they meet. Additionally, you can add Zondervan information to your Facebook profile. After you've added an article to your profile, you can start a discussion about it by adding comments and sharing the article with friends and other Facebook users. Learn more about Facebook.
Reddit
Reddit is a source for what's new and popular on the Web - personalized for you. Every vote you submit about a link lets Reddit know what you like and dislike. Your Reddit profile will contain recommendations about links filtered to your tastes. All of the content on Reddit is submitted and voted on by users like you.
