Would Google destroy Digg or take it to the next level?

Here is a follow-up post to the one featured below.

The topic of discussion is, of course, TechCrunch's rumor that Digg will soon be acquired by Google for somewhere in the neighborhood of $200 million. Digg's users are debating what Google acquiring Digg might mean for their community in this thread on the site. The question is, would being controlled by a big company like Google ruin--or enhance--the community that Digg has worked so hard to build?

I suspect digg would be destoryed,  consumed into a special section of google, tore apart to learn how the math behind the scenes works and then disbandoned.

Just my $0.02 on the matter.
