The aubergine-with-a-nose finally has some friends . Some weird friends.

You know what's no longer relevant, in any shape or form? Slashdot . It's kind of sad, as it used to be the be-all and end-all of technology/nerd news sites, but any number of other technology blogs out there have supplanted it. The articles you do find there nowadays are at least a half-day behind the publication time of information from other sites, and forget any insightful discussion threads (never Slashdot's strong point). I wonder where it went wrong? Is it not Web 2.0-y enough? (Pardon the terminology–I just had to rinse my mouth with a shot of bourbon to atone.)
