A social media user might want to call people’s attention to a recent stumble, blog post, or website. It also serves a specific purpose, while its chief competitor, Facebook, does not.

Until I see Digg becoming more involved in user affairs, I feel that there’s no real future for Digg as a social news service and that their 15-minutes of fame has ended. That hasn’t been much of a reality on Digg.
