Ah...slashdot is a geek site....
Digg is fun in that you can submit stories just like here...but they can be voted up or down like You Tube videos...
It’s a battleground site between conservatives and Leftards...
Not really any more “work” than here...
Slashdot has been around a long time....digg sorta mimicked slashdot and expanded upon it...
If there were an Internet Hall of Fame for websites they’d both be in there...shrug
I would definitely try and help out with voting for articles posted from FR so that more people would see them, so hopefully anyone who does that will give instructions on how to help (at least until us "old" guys catch on).
