"Mixx as a site is technologically ahead of the game, its owners are well known and are in touch with their user base and their accountants. The question remains: is a business model based on poaching users a successful one? Can Mixx gain the traction needed to get out of the mud and when is there API coming?"

@nowsourcing Agreed, site is very easy on the eyes and easy to get around. Just needs the masses to come on over now.

It depends how you define success. Believe it or not for me it already succeeded. You can't expect each new site to be like Digg or del.icio.us
Mixx has features that make it usable in acompletely different way.
Thus the success is not dependable on sheer traffic numbers.

Traffic wise Mixx just needs some more media coverage to get the attention of the average netizens. Now we are still in the early adopter phase.

I'm cheering for them as well. I really like the site -- much better than Digg. I am even starting to see some traffic from it as well which is good news.
