I am the only one to see the irony in this? What's the point of posting information about a website that is down? I can understand if its a service like Skype but digg...

"I can understand if its a service like Skype but digg..."

I think it can be a big deal when Digg is down. While a lot of the content is junk, they do have some gems. Check out this link from this morning:

The reason it's posted is probably because information on the cause of the outtage could be useful to startups. An opportunity for lessons learned...

Obviously this only applies if the outtage is a result of problem with their infrastructure or software.

There is a lot of value in lessons learned. In which case it makes sense to post a link to the fix/solution rather than point out that its broken.

my 2 cents.

Phew! Now I can go back to wasting time consuming scraped linkbait blog posts.
