Paper Slashdot
Have you seen the paper slashdot? Quite a funny parody of /.. However, I think the parody is partly wrong:
Yes, Slashdot can be sometimes skewed, but I think most of the time it is skewed the opposite way the author of the "paper slashdot" thinks - there are gadgets advertisements pretending to be a normal story, there are stories which are meaningful for U.S. citizens only, and so on. Not "news for nerds".
Perhaps a distributed moderation not only for user comments, but for the stories themselves should be created? I mean something like K5 had for years. What do you think about the selection of stories on /. ?
