Slashdot Announcements/T-Shirt Contest Ends

First off, congratulations to Tom Lam and Jim Sproull who are the winners of the Slashdot T-Shirt Design contest. They each get a $100 credit at CopyLeft. The designs will be available in a few weeks (don't worry, we'll announce them), and Tom, please email me an updated URL or your image since your server seems to be down right now and your email is bouncing. Second, I added some new code in the User Preferences: Short Comment Penalty and Long Comment Bonus. It allows you to +1 and -1 comments based on their lengths- nice for filtering out "Me Too" kinda comments. Finally, CowboyNeal, Slashbox poo-bah has notified me that we now have Slashboxes for I, Cringely, LilithFair.org, Myther.com, PBS Online, Dr. Dobb's TechNetCast, and Riva Extreme. So login and play with them if you are interested in these things.
