Recently we’ve watched a plethora of revenue sharing sites sprout throughout the great big www, but this is the first Digg like social networking site that I’ve seen that offers a 50-50 split on all Google Adsense with its users.
PlugIM first caught my attention when the administrator added a story from one of my blogs and I followed the link to the site. At first glance I figured I was looking at another Digg copycat script running a site that probably had no visitors, but after a few days and a decent amount of free bonus traffic coming from the PlugIM page I decided I should have a better look around.
Unlike Digg, these newer communities have an advantage for rookie bookmarkers like me. We can actually get in now and build ourselves a little group without fear of Digg trolls coming to beat us down because we aren’t a part of their crew.
Plus, you get to have your Adsense code floating around on someone else’s pages for a little simple participation in the community. I think this is probably the direction we’ll see the Internet shift in moving forward and I for one am very happy to see the social community embrace its user friendliness and unselfish practices.
Now if Digg could only wake up…
