    Buzztracking "Wizards of Buzz"

    wizards%20of%20buzz%20buzzed.jpgIn addition to sporting one of the most hilarious illustrations ever to appear in the Wall Street Journal, the "Wizards of Buzz" article trend piece on social media "influencers" really should be the reddest of red-meat linkbait, right? So how's the article doing on the sites it mentions?

    Digg - 420 diggs as of this writing. Not bad, but not stellar. Reaction ranges from congratulatory to disappointment and getting interviewed but not quoted.

    Reddit - 82 points. Much investigation into the identify of Reddit user "Adam Fuhrer," a supposed 12-year-old from Toronto. More here.

    StumbleUpon - 435 stumbles. Little comment.

    Del.icio.us - No sign of the WSJ article getting much bookmark love. 287 bookmarks actually.

    Newsvine - 31 votes. Discussion is all citizen-journalish, of course.

    Netscape - 95 votes. Commentary somehow devolves into a strange internecine squabble. Jason Calacanis present, though uninvolved in squabble.
