I know this image is a few months old, but I’m assuming that not all readers have seen it. The image was created by Gawker Media conceptual artist Richard Blakeley to explain why the type of users Digg attracts, might not make it a very attractive purchase to blue chip companies like Yahoo, Microsoft or Google, despite the vast amount of traffic it is generating.

I think the picture sums it up beautifully. Apologies in advance if any of my readers have identical setups!
