The twenty-first edition of Social Blend features a look at the new feature of Mixx that integrates YOUR Mixx submissions with Twitter.  We also take a look at the spiffy new staff profiles they snuck onto the “About Us” page during the last update.  Dominant in our Mixx discussions this week were thoughts on managing social conflicts online, and the reprehensible behavior of some people who attempt to use social media to either further their own agenda or spread hatred. Thoughts of Digg dominate our story selections this week, following the Digg Town Hall 2.0 – in which we discuss the implications on the world of social media in general.  Our other Stories of the Week include a couple of interesting pics from Mixx, while Jay goes political on our asses by bringing up some awesome videos that dominated social media in ...
