Watched the videos, very interesting to see some of the stumbles along the way. I realize at this point there is probably regret not selling earlier, although it was a tough sell considering the amount of capital invested and what the investors wanted in terms of a return. After the layoffs though, it's possible Digg could still be around for a while.

EDIT: Although Jay makes a good point that even though there were "offers", that doesn't mean there is anything set in stone that they could have picked up if they really wanted to sell.
