    I suspect that will be removed (although its been up 6 hours)

    There are so many things wrong with that the least of which being the tag at the end

    The comments on that remind me of the worst parts of slashdot. Ugh.

    That is by the same people going into webmaster forums and attacking us for our stories submitted, seems like shoutwire is just a bunch of clowns who accidentally came up with something popular.

    I'm not surprised after one of their employees came into DP calling us assholes and scam artists. The way they are communicating is on the least professional level I have ever seen an organization of their popularity do.

    They need to sell out to a major and get out of running the site themselves. Who just bought Del.icio.us?

    Was looking at Shoutwire after I airballed a post at Digg and was looking for alternatives. Good grief, what a bunch of juveniles. Not surprising that these guys are associated with the w@r3z sk3n3.

    They're a bunch of kids who have had the energy to get it started, but now that they are up there, they don't have the skills or experience to use it right :)
