      My new business plan. 1) Post some stupid application everyday that does nothing productive or useful. 2) Try to get it posted to slashdot. 3) Make sure it crashes under any type of heavy use. 4) Put google ads on the page. 5) Sit back, play some Call of Duty, and laugh about how I use to have to work for a living.

    And again, how is this site any different than any other website on the net in terms of the information available to it?

    Not quite. I'm a non-subscriber, and I managed to get one hit in (awww, a 7!) before it proclaimed they'd been "dugg/slashdotted."

    And what's this? An ad (for "DocMonster") that wasn't there before. Advertising opportunity? Interesting.

  8. "Your computer is broadcasting your IP address" by adnonsense · · Score: 5, Funny

    Every time you connect to the Internet, send email or access a web site, you are broadcasting this unique address. With this address, someone can immediately begin attacking your computer. Aware of this, reputable software manufacturers such as Microsoft have taken steps to mitigate this issue by making it more difficult to access the internet. However there are still many sites which use deceptive techniques such as "rewards" of "interesting information" to persuade innocent surfers to reveal their IP address and thus open themselves up to "hacking" attacks.

    As a responsible Slashdotter I'd therefore like to proposed a new community-based "vigilante scheme" to tackle such sites. If everyone who is confident their IP address is invulnerable to hacks accesses this kind of site all at once, we can put them out of action and thus protect innocent web surfers with weaker or lower-quality IP addresses. We could call this action "Slashdotting".
