Darren over at Problogger has an interesting piece on social bookmarking as being a way of getting people to check your blog out and sites a post at 30 Stories up titled 7 mistakes for your first week of blogging ( a pretty good read in itself) as a great example.
What worries me though is although you’ve got to type in about 4 captcha images to register with Digg for example, if this is a truly effective way to promote your blog then the spammers will eventually find out to and ruin the experience. Perhaps the advice of “get in while you still can” might suffice? :-)

It might get spammed but it might not get digged.
Yes… without a good reputation algorithm anythign is gameable.
A lot of this stuff depends on how it plays out though.
