Part Three
An article from digg.com with a high digg score that in my opinion does not deserve such a high score is:
"50 Amazing Ramen Noodle Recipes", submitted by Burento on 8/14/09 with a score of 898 diggs on 8/16/09.

I do not consider Ramen noodles edible or worthy of the title of food product. Ramen noodles are very unhealthy for everyone who eats them, very high sodium and no nutritional value. If you are in school you need to eat the most nutritious food that you can afford and this rules out "Ramen Noodles" as a possible food source. Brown rice, carrots, and oatmeal are a much better food choice and will nourish your brain and cost much less than the unhealthy packet of Ramen noodles. Why anyone would go along with the idea of recommending ramen noodles as a popular college food source is a mystery to me unless they are in the business of selling this unsavory item.

Some of the positive things about social bookmarking are learning about and sharing new informative web sites with others having similar interests and research needs. When you discover, organize, and share information sources with others everyone benefits through time savings and expansion of knowledge. This engenders the creation of new innovative ideas and enables more timely solutions of problems.
Social bookmarking can also have negative connotations since some people can have their own agenda and want to sway others to their way of thinking or make a profit from something they are trying to sell. There are spammers out on the Internet that create false rankings when they try to bookmark a page multiple times or tag it with meaningless tags.
