I want a Slashbox that does X
The policy for Slashboxes is as follows:
-
The remote site gives us permission.
-
The remote site provides an RDF file for us to parse (here is our
rdf if you want an example).
-
We decide that it belongs on Slashdot.
Currently the grand Slashbox poobah is CowboyNeal.
Email him a URL to the RDF, as well as a technical contact, and we'll consider
your addition to the roster.

What is this little [?] I see in stories?
It designates a glossary style link to Everything2.
We use these to link things like acronyms or names when we think that they
might be obscure enough that someone else might need some clarification.

How can I see old stories?
Slashdot has archived stories going back pretty much to the beginning of
the site. You can access them by hitting the "older stuff" link on the
main page or by searching for them in the database by using the search
form at the bottom of the front page.

Why do I see Some Other User's Nickname in my Menu?
This is a short cut. Essentially, there is a tab on your user menu (appearing on
many pages like Journals and Users) that shows the nickname and UID of the last user
that you looked at. This is not a bug! This is a helpful shortcut so that you can
hop back and forth between your friends information, and theirs.
