Digg's success hasn't come from nothing. The site has overcome failed partnerships, buyout rumors and companies attempting to use its system for their own advantage. Those obstacles have not dented Digg's mounting popularity, and it should be around for years to come. The site is nearing profitability, its traffic has nearly doubled since August 2008, and it reportedly sees click-through rates up to 100 times more than standard display advertising.
For more information on what Digg has accomplished, take a look at TechRadar's brief history of the site.

I quit going to digg, do to their political BIAS, and unfairness to the way stories are submitted.
I go to mixx.com, a little more reasonable, without the back biting.
Digg is for kiddies, mixx is a little more adult.

Digg lost its initial appeal to techies a long while ago IMO. It's still a good alternative source of news if you are bored and have nothing new to read from your usual sources, but go there often and you will notice how it's heavily biased towards the same kind of topics and websites in the tech vertical.

It has been a neat concept, but i really havn't needed it :-)

I guess I know almost nothing about this site even though I have sorta used it for a long time. I use a site called Jimmyr.com because it takes the most popular articles from Digg, Reddit, Life hacker, Dell, and every other site imaginable and places it on one convenient page with different sections for tech news, news, funny news, pictures, and more. I didn't even know Digg had a political bias I mostly only looked at articles from it in the funny picture section, in fact I hardly know what the site is at all. I never knew it was "A cross between social networking and news" which just sounds weird to me now.
