Stumbleupon
I am a stumblers myself more than a digger, this i got to admit because stumbling seems much simpler and guarantees you traffic even without a huge number of votes and Stumbleupon can send you crazy traffic, while the traffic gained is not as much as what Digg provides, i am sure everyone's wish is to see their blog gain 2 things 'Traffic', 'Loyal Readers'. One of the quickest way to get traffic is using Stumbleupon but one thing you need to keep in mind is the fire loses it's flame when it does not have oxygen. Maintaining votes by top stumblers is the key to success in stumbleupon.
