Reddit highlighted a recent campaign from Philadelphia Cream Cheese as a success story. A post that asked users "How do you use 'Philly cream cheese' to take foods to the next level?" saw more than 1,000 comments in a month, a 91% upvote rate, and a 42% higher clickthrough rate than the brand's previous benchmark.
I’m not one for optimism, but this is literally the exact behavior that caused Digg to die and everyone to move to Reddit in the first place. They formatted paid content identically to user-submitted content. Every user pitched a fit at being propagandized, and the ownership responded by delisting user-submitted content entirely so no one could submit their own posts.
Reddit users’ IQ is about half that of Digg’s however. The site is already 80% bots and no one cares.
"Let us continue to fool midwit users by acting as though we haven't been planting advertisements disguised as real users the entire time!"
My favorite was the McDonald's bag in the foggy parking lot. Ooh so aesthetic.

This is exactly what killed Digg.

I feel the same way about people who don't use Sporks
sporks are handy when you're camping
I just admire the combination of utility and simplicity
I've since switched to these for camping -- they are bar none the best
Interesting. We got a few sets of bamboo ones for camping, the local scouting group was selling them for a fundraiser.
