Will it be Gigg or MicroDigg?

Rumour has it that both Google and Microsoft are on the verge of making an offer for the social news site Digg.

Google, Microsoft Said To Be Preparing Bids For Digg - TechCrunch

And despite a number of false starts, this time a sale looks like it might actually happen, and soon. We hear from a source very close to the deal that four companies are in heavy due diligence with Digg - two media/news companies, and two big Internet companies - Google and Microsoft. And Google and Microsoft are on the verge of making their bids.

Interesting developments and I love reading the comments on Digg about it. Obviously many are opposed to the idea of Digg “selling out”. How can you blame them for selling? My only problem with it is that it’s not me!
