Don't know why there is hatred about slashdot here? There is still some quality discussion with insightful comment happening in slashdot like this following link

http://ask.slashdot.org/story/11/10/07/1438230/ask-slashdot-...

I think slashdot is great. I also think submissions should be original articles with additional links to sites like slashdot in the comments.

When you graduate from /. you move to HN, see http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=CmdrTacoMalda

Not sure if you need 14 years to graduate to HN though..!!

Just read the comments on Slashdot, insightful and gives a broader view on how people think about the subject. The story does include the link as well, so original article will get slashdotted...

Thanks for sharing these additional links!
