What is it with Digg? It's turning into Facebook.
For the past month, maybe once a week I'm informed that I have a new fan on Digg. WTF? I don't do anything on Digg. Never stuck anything up there. Maybe commented on one thing once, and Dugg some articles as you would for a friend/acquaintance. I Dugg something for Watley, for instance. But that's it.

So which Nimrods go about adding me to their lists, leading me to get emails saying that they 'like what I'm up to on Digg'? To what purpose? Does it make them look they have friends in real life? Or what?

Haha whoa, a bit harsh. Whilst I would never add anyone myself it's always good to know that someone is keeping track of what I Digg - especially as this is usually my own website. It's pretty much just human nature - you'll pay attention to what someone is doing if you appear to have shared interests.

Yeah! I am also seeing it from the last 2 months but there is nothing to bad having a fan or a friend. Web is going more socialized now

What you think?

LOL! OK, I have nothing to moan about then.

It is natural to get those fans connected to you or any other user for that instance. Even I used to do the same when I was a frequenter at Digg. I am a fan of a lot of people. That's how one can make their presence felt in there.

I agree that the web is becoming more social certainly.
