Since Digg was released I've always wondered how people would stay involved after the buzz wore off. With so much to read and do online (let alone offline!) who has the time to persistently participate in non-valued-added user rating submission sites? Couldn’t agree more Allen.

Besides, Digg may throw up some interesting content... but no more so than a focused blog will. Signal-to-noise is much too high. Digg is not much more than Slashdot++. As for machine vs. human, well, I think where Digg really fails is that it's a fusion. Google=machine, blog=human; Digg=both and neither. All this being said, if they are sharp the brand could survive but I don't see the business model lasting! True, true.
