I agree that it's disappointing that the article didn't mention reddit, but the compete.com data doesn't exactly support the notion of digg users flocking there:

See my other post: reddit, quite some time, had a blog post about how such analytics seemed to be completely detached from the reality of their internal numbers.

Reddit's google analytics (Jan '11) puts their number of uniques >10x higher than compete and their Jun/Jul number is around 8x larger than compete's.

I guess thats what you for looking at a website that pretends a 1% sample is representative of actual Internet usage for anything beyond painting the most board strokes.
