10 Reasons Why I Hate Shout Outs on Digg

It has now been nearly 6 weeks since the new shout feature was launched at Digg and I am not a big fan. Here are 10 reasons why I hate it:

1. New diggers are now able to get submissions on the homepage.

2. It doesn't require as much skill to get submissions on the homepage - anyone can do it.

3. New diggers are adding 900+ friends, shouting them all and getting 40 diggs in less then an hour.

4. It's even harder to get my lame submissions on the homepage.

5. Top diggers are being challenged.

6. I don't like change.

7. Ron Paul submissions can now get over 100 diggs in an hour.

8. The feature reminds me of Netscape/Propeller.

9. When I try it I get told off.

10. When I try it I get buried.
