Slashdot, the esteemed website that dishes out news for nerds, is celebrating its tenth anniversary. Why, it seems like just yesterday that I was browsing the site and reading foreboding predictions about Y2K and hyperbolic musings about how cool Daikatana was going to be. Is Jon Katz still writing? I used to enjoy his articles about geek culture in the aftermath of Columbine, although he could sometimes be a tad self-important.
I still check Slashdot on a daily basis and it never fails to provide regular morsels of interesting content. I’ve even been known to submit a few comments of my own. My next life goal is to submit a story that makes it to Slashdot’s front page. And if I’m really fortunate, maybe I’ll get slashdotted myself in the future.
