I haven't been on it too much lately since they went public (I've been too busy at work to play around on the 'net .. darn it!), but the time or two I have gotten on there, it seems pretty much intact so far. I really do hope it stays that way.

It seems that if anything, Newsvine has improved now that they've gone public.
Maybe I can lay my fears about it going the way of Digg to rest...
