I don't know... 50% of their top advertisers have left, and their advertising income is down 60%. I'm no longer there, so I can't speak to overall user engagement, but with their revenue cratering, I'm not sure how long it is destined for this world.
Even if Twitter and Reddit don't completely crash like Digg did, making them "just one among several" will be a good thing in the long run. They'll actually have competition for a change.
