Jason Calacanis also notes: "I think we have three of the top 20 DIGG users (and two from the top 10!). We also hired from Newsvine, delicious, and Reddit top users."

And to be clear, I think the blogosphere long tail (of status) is similar to digg's. So I'm not picking on digg here, it's just a fact of life on the Web that there are social structures in which relatively few have status. Which is a general topic that Tom Wolfe always writes about, hence my reference in the first sentence...
