Our tech industry expert over at Valleywag noted something interesting about BusinessWeek's recent cover story on Digg.com's Kevin Rose: The piece was "originally titled 'Wealth Punks,'... The magazine also considered the bland 'Geeks 2.0' for the cover before settling on 'How this kid made $60 million in 18 months.'"

Amid all the more serious criticism of BusinessWeek's story about Kevin Rose, everyone forgot to ask: Why did the magazine run such a dorky photo of the Digg founder? Well, he told me.

So far, Digg is breaking even on an estimated $3 million annually in revenues. A rumored $40 million offer from Yahoo! Inc. surfaced in January, which Yahoo denied. Nonetheless, people in the know say Digg is easily worth $200 million.

You gotta love it: Kevin Rose says users shouldn't be paid even though 30% of the front page stories come from the top 10 users on DIGG. Congrats on the cover of BusinessWeek Kevin, but be careful counting those chickens before they hatch (from someone who's been there).

We've become very accustomed to stories about how this or that startup could be worth $x billion, though they typically offer little justification for that price tag. At least, however, they typically acknowledge that the price is speculative, and that a buyout is far from a done deal.
