Attention, Mixx Army: after your success with the Mixx Campaign to bring Mixx to PopURLs.com, we have found for you another objective: FriendFeed.com! What is Friend Feed? It’s a site that literally plugs into your activity at a variety of social media sites such as del.icio.us, Digg, LinkedIn, Stumble and much more. However, there is one social media site that is notably absent… That’s right – it’s Mixx. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to get Mixx on FriendFeed! Step One: Go to FriendFeed.com and sign up for the service. Most of your friends or some social media addicts are already signed up. Look ‘em up and subscribe to their Friend Feed. Step Two: E-mail them at feedback@friendfeed.com – and tell them you want Mixx added to their service! So, step up troops of the Mixx Army, and let your voice be heard! Keep on mixxin’!
