I think that we've all been doing this for a long time with local-hosted servers at home. Our laptops and mobile devices don't have enough storage on board, so we all have external HDDs or NAS's that we all connect to. Not news, just opportunistic buzzword-bait.

That's what the CowBoyNeal aka "I don't have a TV you insensitive clod" option is for. Then of course come here and complain more ;)

I want to know who to sue as I didn't get a single-digit UID as I didn't know about this site until just now.

All kidding aside, great work. I started on something similar when I first saw Slashdot Business Intelligence rear it's ugly head, and had a vision for it that was just like this .. blue color and all.

I definitely like the pipe dot name better than slashampersand (the name I came up with), though.

So where can I checkout the source?

I've volunteered some on the soylentnews side, they have a pretty good team together.

I have always been pro-start-from-scratch, though. Never thought slashcode would ever be so closely mimicked.

I'm glad that both sites exist, if anything, to send a message and maintain free-press for developers and some fans of tech.

Kudos.
