Well that is what the New York Times is hoping as today they have unveiled social bookmarking links to Digg, Facebook and Newsvine for the first time. Links to social bookmarking sites is nothing new for regular bloggers but this move by the NYT is notable simply because it comes from a ‘traditional’ newspaper.
