What Is Your Experience of Digg?

I have wondered why some posts get dugg more than others. It seems that there are groups of digg users who help some articles to score and get onto the front page.
I first knew about their presence from forums and you can join these groups and send articles to them for some digging. Bloggers can benefit from the exposure in terms of adsense earnings, traffic, subscribers, alexa ranking, back links, etc.
Certainly, this is manipulation of articles (and even cheating) to gain popularity, but I found that the standard of diggs have not decreased substantially as a result. There is a bury button if you do not like the article for either its junk or excessively-promotional content.
Overall, I still enjoy the home page reads. What is your experience of digg?
