I went back to digg a few times and was very bored to see lots of Gawker Media's crap, TorrentFreak's rhetoric, HuffPo's methodical pandering, ExtremeTech gaming another audience (sadly they didn't abandon HN for digg), BGR who are just shameless spammers, etc.
I think the new digg has amazing potential, but I think it's going to be wasted and turned into a funnel for low quality blogs and splogs to manipulate ... again.
