Im usually not ready to get excited about a new web 2.0 startup social bookmarking site but Mixx has a little something for me. The similarities to Digg and
Technorati are there without a doubt, The listings are organize

d in the same horizontal way with the vote on the left side but heres where Mixx shows us its first nice feature. The ability to vote down a story! Unlike Digg and Technorati you can vote against a story and the count goes down accordingly. As opposed to Digg where all you can do is bury the story which really doesn’t do much.
Simmilar to Digg, when you create a Mixx account you select your top interests and they will now show up on your homepage nicely organized for you, While this isnt anything special its still a nice feature brought over from the other social bookmarking sites.

Another new feature Mixx is using is tags! I know some people hate tags but I think they are very useful, Tags allow you to further separate the pre-defined categories into smaller more “niche” listings.
Finally.. Mixx is very friendly to the eyes, its a fresh and clean looking and with a few more unmentioned features such as local news and the Mixx Kitchen it might stand a chance in the fight with Digg and Technorati but Mixx still being in open beta, we will hope for some more features before it attempts to tackle the big dogs.
