As a regular of Slashdot.org, I've been tempted to submit a story about Squeak
and how wonderful it is...looks like someone beat me to it!
Still...Slashdot will likely generate a lot of attention to the Squeak
cause...heck, it'll probably overload the Swikis (the so-called Slashdot
effect). Judging by the responses to the story, it looks like there are a lot
of people who are very well informed about Squeak as it is (as well as the
usual clueless trollers, but that's the internet for you :).
Anyway, if the Swiki's seem overloaded....well, you've just experience the
Slashdot effect.
(For those who don't know: see http://slashdot.org)
Another suggestion: Slashdot has a 'sister' web page called Freshmeat, which
has more-or-less become 'the' place to announce new software for the
UNIX/Linux community (see http://freshmeat.net). Is it in the interest of
Squeak to have new releases submitted there? Again it would probably generate
a lot of interest in Squeak... just a thought, anyway.
