Reading Slashdot From Strange Locations

Posted by simoniker on from the back-of-a-volkswagen dept.

aarrieta writes "I was thinking about the location of Slashdotters around the world. Many of us read /. from our houses/offices/schools. But I guess there are people reading Slashdot from non-traditional places/sites (an oil platform in the middle of the sea, Antarctica, the ISS, etc?) But what's the strangest place you've ever read Slashdot from, or the most remote place you're currently reading it from?"

    News while taking a shit has got to be as old as newspapers. The advent of cheap, daily newspapers definitely popularized it.

    Slashdot is a news service.

    That's pretty much all there is to it.

    In internet it isn't geography, but bandwidth that makes you remote.
