randomelements.me.uk — Digg is a classic example of a website born of the Web 2.0 ideal with Social Bookmarking or User Filtered Content so why is it that one of the most popular Web 2.0/Social websites going does not have a category for Social Media?

Because it is a "technology" oriented audience, not a "social" one.

But "social media" is like "Web 2.0", a buzz word that include technology, social aspect, commercial model, content, etc. So i think it will be very usefull in Digg taxonomy ! :-)

But there are technologies involved behind Social Media which should have a category.

Sorry, never used it. Social media and the technologies involved is a perfectly valid category. This isn't just about technology.

A "technology" oriented audience? So why do we have Gaming, lifestyle and Sport categories? What about the technology employed to create the social media, the links between and the mashups? Digg itself is a social site - I can't help but see the irony in that!
