You won’t believe it but in the world there are millions, who live for less than $100 a month but still have Internet access at work. Pay them 5 cents/digg and they will digg, reddit etc for you anything you like as often as you need. It’s said that some people do it already albeit in smaller scale.

Windows Vista is nearly… Somthing like that have Digg Account, Will Submit One of the questions that’s continually raised about Digg (and indeed, many other social media sites) is for how long users will tolerate doing the manual labor for sites without receiving any sort of financial remuneration. Obviously, the idea with something like Digg is that the users’ work benefits themselves by creating the site — in essence, free access to the flow of stories from the collective body of readers is the payment for submitting and ranking stories. Some social media sites have tried to change this by paying people to submit items to the site, but that’s something Digg has sworn it will never do. However, apparently popular Digg users are being solicited by companies (via Techmeme) to promote their stories in exchange for payment. It’s hardly surprising, but it’s an interesting problem for Digg, or any site where the “top” users hold a lot of influence. It’s a question of incentives: if Digg offered users a way to profit, would they be less interested in schemes to profit from selling their influence and gaming the system? Some sites are already using revenue-sharing plans, where submitters of popular stories and highly-rated opinions get a share of ad revenues. Of course, even with such a plan in place, there will be some users that will still sell their “services” to others seeking to gain some online attention, but if a revenue-sharing system is viable, it would remove (or at least lessen) the incentive to do so for many users. Some people try to frame the issue of payment almost as a moral one, that it’s only right for these users to be paid for their work. But moral superiority isn’t the main concern for social media sites here — they may be forced to start paying users to try and protect the integrity of their systems.Did you know that Will means deliberate intention or wish: Let it be known that I took this course of action against my will..

Kevin Rose stated clearly that “Diggers will never get paid” because it would create an inequality among those that do get paid and those who do it for free. I offer a solution: give the Diggers some of Digg’s traffic. [...] [...] An interesting discussion is hot these days about top diggers getting paid to Digg someone’s story.
