Good for finding info, but damn difficult to post anything and hope to get
traction from it. If you do get a story to the front page, you'll get a huge
amount of traffic - but if you're in it to get a sale, hardly any of this
traffic converts. Fun for an end-user, skippable for a marketer.
It's a great time-waster, that's for sure, and you're sure to find that odd,
cool story from time to time. There's a lot of irrelevant stuff that makes it to
the front pages somehow, but if you wade through it, you'll find a lot to
like.
Also, for those saying that it's not a social networking site, that's not
entirely accurate. From the start digg was intended to be a "social
news" site where users could share content discovered anywhere on the net.
There has to be some social networking component, it wouldn't be digg
otherwise.
Good way to keep up with interesting tech stories, although it does have a
problem with "power users" being the only select few people who can
have a story make it to the front page. Digg fixed the shout thing, now they
just need to get rid of "friends" all together. It's a news site, not
a social networking site.
Digg's article submission procedure is tedious in the extreme, and, unless
you're already part of the MSM, it's pointless too. It is a great place for
trend spotting.

Fun news unlike the others.
Great way to find out what most people are reading in the news
Always has great stories dugg, but I find I am not really at all involved with the Digg community. maybe I do not understand it well enough.
My start page on mobile browser. Great when I am bored.
Digg has good potential. It already has established itself as my favorite news site.
I think that digg must add a topic called google ..
Good to coffee :)
Cool site, has lots of funny/random stuff but also some serious news too.
Good stuff for making a link hot for a moment...
