• Tweetmeme Recent Items – Gaming
  Twitter, according to ZDNet’s Andrew Mager, is "faster, more viral than Digg." Why? Mager points out the submissions to Twitter are much more meaningful. Mager writes, "Clicking a Digg button is a no-lose situation. You aren’t going to lose friends if you Digg 100 things one day. But Twittering something has more of a risk. If you tweet too much, or post a stupid link, you might lose some followers." Anyway, Tweetmeme somehow (?) tabulates the most popular, recently-tweeted headlines and arranges them in a digglike way.
